Feeling really weird tonight. Not sure what the emotion us or why I am feeling it. Maybe it it because graduation is coming up. And tomorrow is my last day. It's like I'm grasping the fact that I have a whole world before me to explore! And I'm...scared? Happy? Nervous? I'm not really sure. But I feel that maybe I can actually BE something

Happy for you!! Not that you are feeling weird or "off" but because you have the feeling that things are going to be good. The feeling that you said, "maybe I can actually BE something." I totally believe there are amazing things in your future!!

Thank you! I'm not sure how long the feeling will last, but just a small ounce of something being good, or believing I can do something good, is something I haven't felt in many years. It's nice.

Thank you. I can't say how grateful I am to have met everyone on the couch. I have a long way to recovery, but with my psychologist, and the couch, and (if I may say) God, I know I can do it. I haven't felt hope in so long! Thank you, everyone! And thank you, TrailRunner, for praying for me. I just love this feeling!

I am fully coming to understand why money drives married couples apart. I am not sure my marriage is going to survive this latest discussion we have gotten into. It's this whole insurance thing. The part about my son is worked out. But now I started talking to h again about my worry that he is not covered when he's working, during the time he has a package in the car, because he does not have commercial insurance only personal. I've lived with it for awhile and just let the worry consume me and talk about it with t. But I decided to talk about it again because I think he is so wrong to take this kind of a chance. Maybe I am catastrophising, but seriously, if he caused an accident with a package in the car and they could prove he was working - we could totally be sued and lose our home, our cars, everything. I am too old to lose everything. I don't know what we would do. He did at least call a company today and ask for rates they are supposed to call him back. But he said he will not get it if it's too expensive. He said "I will just quit my job and collect social security." Which I suppose is what he wants anyway. To just lay around and watch tv all day long. I am seriously questioning my marriage again. And I still don't know how to bring it up to him. Sorry to be a downer again, couch. I am so confused. I don't know what to do. He's not my child, I can't make him do something he doesn't want to do. But I am not sure I can live with this constant worry. Or with him getting upset with me and yelling at me when I voice said concern and worry. I think I need to figure out what I want with the rest of my life and get on with it. If I am going to stay married to him, I need to shut up about what I don't like, or I need to divorce him. I don't know what to do .

I'm sorry, Artemis-within. You should be able to voice your concerns. Maybe this song would make you and many others feel better.

Stay strong. We're here for you.

(((Art))) I've noticed the volume increase exponentially as the argument gets lost. My ex could outshout me so he always won. I became like a dog with a bone, never letting go. None of our issues ever got settled, because I'd bring them up over and over, and he'd yell until we stopped again. What a very frustrating way to live. . .

You are so welcome!! It is my pleasure and I share the hope with you! I pray again that it continues to grow! God is good!

The couch is a great place to hang with people who hear you and I believe care. I've not been here very long. Lots of times I just hang out and keep up with what's going on, being a part of someone else's journey. There have been times that I've kind of flipped out, but someone heard me. I'm thankful for that too. All that to say, I understand your thankfulness for this place and the people here.

Art - is commercial insurance not required in AZ? And why does his employer either not provide it or not require him to have it if he's a contractor? It seems to me these are the ways to get him to have it.

Also, and I say this with concern not criticism, but you often worry about something happening - always something possible but on the unlikely side going by the odds - and your mind instantly jumps to the fear of losing everything. I understand that you just bought a house and you were hit hard by the recession, and that at least a little worry is better than your husband's cavalier attitude. But I am concerned that you worry too much, and your mind goes to the worst possible outcome and dwells on it, and that doesn't seem healthy either. Maybe something your therapist could help with?

Eta: also this seems less like a money issue and more a control/stubbornness issue for your husband to me.

Some of these are very clever. Others could do with more head room.

Number four shows a door much too small for a human. So who uses it?

I also really like 16, 40, 41, and 42. Those are my top 7. 41 is my favorite.

Fairies? Fairy doors are popular for some reason.

All the nooks give me claustrophobia.
