i set boundaries but that means staying at home alone alot. but im very healthy and so are my relationships. my theory is people that CDF post 40 hrs + a week have terrific boundaries and healthy relationships.they are nurturing and strengthening those relationships every minute. it just keeps getting better.
Small wonder you produced so many little bails of hay... Are they enough for a team in some sport or do you need to add up? I don't know much about sports...

I don't think so...not enough for basketball, baseball, lacrosse...I am not having more to make a team though
Heh, so are my relationships with my house, car, PC, etc... Granted, all of them pis* me off once in a while, but not nearly as often.
relationships nurturing & strengthening and relationships with the inantimate hmmm, house car PC well that is a good start but did you ever think of the cemetary. let me tell you they never interrupt, raise their voice, very patient, never make a mistake,know their assigned task and do it flawlessly 24/7. total dependability, & talk about a good sense of order. im telling you there is an avalanche of opportunity there for drawing closer & nurturing those healthy relationships. go where you wana go do what you wana do adams family ---sing it.

Ha-ha, you remind me of an episode of Boston Legal. There was this woman having "relationships" with inanimate objects. I think I'll pass on the cemeteries for now...
You gotta make it a point - no matter how busy life gets - to carve out some real quality time together. No easy task, which just makes it that much more rewarding when you do. If I can't physically spend time with someone in my life, then I want to still make sure they know how blessed I am to have them in my world.
This is going to sound oh-so-hokey, but I am a card sender. I never really used to be, but when my husband got sick, my mother & I had been in a pretty bad tiff. When she found out through my sister about how far things had slid down hill - and that death was imminent, my mom started sending me cards. There was a month there where I was getting at least 4-5 cards a week.
I realized that while my mom had no trouble dishing out the negative zingers, it was really hard for her to verbalize an apology and loving words. But the kindness poured out of her in those cards; and made me see that sometimes, we need a little help to say what's deep inside. Since then, if I know someone close to me is going through a tough time, I send a card & let them know I care - even if they aren't ready or able to talk. I make certain to include a msg. that when they are ready, I'll be there.
Tell them they are important. It's easy to be "busy", to assume the other person "knows" how you feel. If I have a friend a value - I tell them the friendship is important to me.
