Describe the Last Time Things Went Well for You.

Last Friday (the 19th of July) we had my wife's nephew, his wife and their daughter over for dinner and games.

The night went well. I made dinner, and they appeared to like the asparagus and the bacon chicken meal I made. We played a new (to me) version of Catan afterward (Traders and Barbarians- we choose the "fisherman of Catan" variation).

The last time I was with them, we talked about his wife's family- her parents and siblings have some issues... this time I was able to share with them what my family was/is like.

Some other things that went well.
1. I had lunch with the same nephew today.

2. I just got back from a 3 day boy scouts camping trip. My son and I had some good father/son time, and I had some good interactions with 2 people.

Last Saturday we (my wife, son and I) were invited to a colleague of my wife's for the day, along with several other people who work with my wife. It was a good time- we played frisbee, went on a pontoon boat ride, ate some good food, and had some good conversation. I spent quite a bit of time talking with a Vietnam vet about his experiences (he brought it up- and I'm also a veteran (2003-2011)). My son had a great time swimming and interacted well with the other kids.

I'm not sure why, but it was a really good morning. My wife and son were in a good mood, and we laughed and joked around as we all got ready for the day. Then we had a group hug and kisses all around before my wife and son left the house.

What was going on? Is that a golf reference?

I went and played 18 "holes" of disk golf. It was a beautiful morning- I was the only one there, and I played a pretty good game (that means I didn't lose any disks today!).

Toastmaster's went fairly well yesterday- I tried a new role- that of grammarian- and I did a good job.

I had lunch today with a friend I haven't seen in a while.... It went pretty well- he let me know he's excited about my plans for the future. We hope to meet up again soon- our boys have a good time together.

this year (on febuary 28th), marks 1 year since I've been abused in a physical nature. it was a big day for me, as it was something I never thought I'd see

emotional abuse is still a huge part of my life, but it's still a good result

I had lots of lovely shopping come yesterday

candy and things

Aug 25, 2019 at 09:53 AM

today while I was in the shop the woman behind the counter took a genuin interest in how I was, and had a laugh with me.

no one ever stops to talk to me. I really apreciated it

When my mom and dad didn't constantly bring up divorce. Them hating and screaming at each other has been going on throughout my whole life.

Edit: Actually, when I got to keep my uncle's cat. She is the light of my life right now.
