Couch 56...Getting Back to our roots

Pbutton... you are correct..no one said that it was my interpretation.

and whoops there goes another ... i did it without even knowing it...

I'm also looking forward to stripping all the linens out of my sons' rooms and washing them... curtains, sheets, blankets, etc... my allergy son is of course a collector of blankets and stuffed animals and all things that collect dust mites...

and I still have H and my work clothes to wash and take to the laundromat to dry... so its a good time to do the comforters and blankets and sheets....

That should take up most of my night.

I am so confused.... are you ok? We all love ya here, you know that ... and if you didnt , well I just told ya

It did not sound that way to me as such. But then again, I am not all that given to giving sympathy or feeling pulled in by it- so it may be that it just does not register so much with me one way or the other.

Thanks...but i realized I did it again and so I'm discontinuing talking about this subject...

My s wants new bedding do you think they have it with Lamborghini on them?

that's why we're here... so you can say "I think you guys are thinking XXXXX" and we can tell you if that's right or wrong.

They do and its expensive.... just google Lamborghini bedding

Okay... I think you guys think I complain to much about my H... that I have a victim mentality and that I should stop sympathy seeking and either **** or get off the pot... leave him or stop complaining cause you are all sick of hearing about it...

or of course I could be just projecting my own feelings

I vote projecting for 1000 bob. No one here is judging you and no one here is telling you to leave your H. Matter of fact, if anyone did feel this way about things... Im pretty sure they would just say it. We aren't a shy bunch.

Nope. Not even a little bit.

Yeah...not what a 10 year old wants...he wants it to have a big picture of a Lanborghini on it ...not the logo.

Nope. Not at all. I did wonder if you asked your husband to stop for water ice? I couldn't tell from what you'd written. But I certainly didn't think any of the stuff you said.

He may have to settle for posters of Lamborghini and Bugatti Veyron... since I doubt they have exotic sports car bedding ....

RTS - I assume you are getting something out of staying with your husband. As far as complaining, I think everyone here has the ability to just not read something if they don't find it interesting. Complain away if you find it useful is my thought on the matter.

I figured that as he is young.....

No I didn't. I already know he doesn't like water ice so why do I need him to stop. We were in the same vehicle so if he wasn't thinking along those lines then I could just wait to get home and take myself. I was trying to use it as an example of how we don't need to change the other person... we can change ourselves... I did't go home and feel sorry for myself and be all disappointed. I texted a friend and when she was able... (which unfortuneately was not till aftet the water ice place closed) we went to get ice cream.

Although I guessed that my point didnt come across because I sounded all complaining and sympathy seeking... when really it wasn't my intention which made me realize that I do it without intending...

Is water ice like sorbet? or popsicles? Or snowcones?

I am sorry if something I said caused you to get that impression. I was expressing that my experience has been different: that the other person can learn new behaviors and can train their thoughts because I have been trying to do it for my H and he is trying for me. If the other person is totally unwilling to try, then that's different. I am sorry if I hurt you.

Along with my new teaching position comes a new free iPad ( well for as I long as I work for this school) I am enjoying it right now!!!!

I don't think you sounded sympathy seeking. From an outside perspective, tt does sound like you had a couple of missed opportunities in your relationship. I don't see anything wrong with saying "Hey, I'd love a water ice, mind if we stop?" or since you were both looking for a treat, asking him if he wanted to go out for ice cream when you got home. Granted, you certainly didn't have to do either of those things, but I think they may have helped the two of you feel closer, rather than separate.

I forgot the italian water ice isn't everywhere... its not snowcones... sort of like sorbet mixed with snowcones ice... I don't know how to explain it.

I don't want anyone to think they hurt me...just gave me a new perspective thats all.

I realize I could have said " hey do you want to stop when we get home?" He was the one to suggest it in the first place and I said yes so if he didn't want to stop on the way home then he must not have wanted it any longer or did not think it would be as good as this place. I'm sure he had some type of thinking or reasoning for not stopping somewhere else. I made plans with a friend after he had left the house to go run errands. He had opportunity to spend time with me if that was his desire but he had other things to attend to so I did my own thing.

really cool looking stuff... didn't even bother to look at the prices... I'm going with posters they are way cheaper and since he can't decide if his first car is going to be a Lamborghini or a Bugatti Veryon... it would be a touch choice for bedding as well

If it was me, I would not have had a reason for not going anyplace else - It just would not have occurred to me if my partner did not chime in with another suggestion. OR I might have thought she did not want anything really if the one place was closed and so if after my suggestion failed and she did not give one, I would just go home.
I only add this because I often am not doing or am doing something for different reasons than are attributed to me by others who don't just check with me before making conclusions that make them unhappy. Other times it is because I have not been thinking about the other person at all.

Healed, its so nice that you have an iPad.... Do you have a set curriculum to follow or do you have to design your own?
