"Hellooo down there ((English Teacher)) let me toss you a rope, so I can pull you up. No dirt throwing on yourself allowed" lol. Just trying to have some fun. When a situation is nagging me, I imagine taking what ever's bothering me - put it in a pretend box, locking it and put it way up high on a shelf. Or I ask myself "is there anything I can do about ------- at this moment"? Set aside a specific time of day for worrying and problems solving. Sit down with hubby and a list of short solutions for those problems. Good luck
