I am working through relationship issues. I would have thought after three decades we would have this figured out by now. But the key word is we. I had some very serious words for my husband yesterday and I know he heard what I said, listened and processed, and is making efforts at the moment. This is in addition to a few of these conversations recently. I am going to be completely laid up with surgery. I won’t be made feel useless and a burden.

I’m saying this here because in the past this has been a huge trigger for me. As soon as physically capable of sitting I would find a slot machine for a few hours.

I will speak my truth and either his behaviour changes or mine will. And I’ll be d@mned if I’m going to escape again.
