Big Day in Journal

I talked to DH for almost an hour and he didn’t run away! I feel like we both got to voice our side/opinion and how we felt. The emotions were negative ones, but we both have a lot of negative emotions to express. It felt great! I mean, I was nervous and little distracted at the awesome occasion, but it did happen. And I’m really glad it did.

In other news. Mom sent me a text asking if she could visit. I immediately felt too drained by all the happenings from talking to DH. So I told her “I don’t think I have the energy for that today.” which is probably the most truthful in-the-moment thing I’ve ever said to her, other than that one time I yelled at her, haha. But the time I yelled I let the anger take over instead of simply experiencing it and communicating it. This time, I was success! Felt really good.

RTR for the win.
