Guest guest Posted December 16, 2001 Report Share Posted December 16, 2001 Grace: He sounds like a keeper. Cherish him and your girls. I haven't gotten to your original post yet, but you sound like me. I get so unreasonably angry about little stuff...way out of proportion. It's scary sometimes. I get insomnia though, not extra sleep. I just started zoloft and so far it has helped some. Good luck.

Guest guest Posted December 17, 2001 Report Share Posted December 17, 2001 Life is about moments just like that. Kerri On the other hand.... I have a husband who loves me, despite all my wretched flaws. That is something to be thankful for, as my latest behavior is truly cause to despise me, and be right in doing so. He was out tonight at some doctor's association end-of-year gathering, which I could not attend because I don't have a sitter. Anyhow, he always calls on his way home, and he did just now also. He asked what I was doing, and I told him I was about to fold the loads and loads of laundry. " Oh, really? Then wait for me! " he says. " Why? " " Because, we can fold it together while we watch RUSH HOUR 2, which I borrowed on my way out tonight. " I grinned. " Okay, hurry and come home then. " " Do you want something to eat, " he asks. " No, I ate dinner awhile ago. " " Cheeseburger? " " No thanks, " I reply. " You want ice cream? " he asks, to which I reply " No " again. Clencher: " Will you be happy when I come home? " " I'm always happy when you come home. " He pauses. Then asks, " Will you LOOK happy? " and adds, " I like it when you're happy. I haven't seen you smile all day long. I love your smile. " I will never figure out what my life is about. Never.
