Hi jp

Yep, wonder what the view is like from the top smile


Just read through your last thread. I really liked what you said here,
[/quote=jp787]
My goal is to get to a point to where I can plan and if it falls apart, then I rool with it instead of getting rolled up in it.

I need to adopt more of your attitude, of rolling with the changes, and not letting fear of uncertainty hold me down.

Wife is moving home this weekend.

More nervous that excited, guess that's normal after nine months away.

Haven't lived together for 9 months. Completely acceptable and understandable to be nervous. She will be as well. Feel those emotions and understand why you are having them. You will be awesome new JP!! Keep trucking forward.
Wife and I are moving into the new house tomorrow so I hope you and I both have very happy weekends!

I agree with ChasingPavement, you can't have glorious vistas without getting to the top of the mountain.

Leave that half-empty glass behind.

Let me give up the need to know why things happen as they do.
I will never know and constant wondering is constant suffering.

Hey J, thought I'd come visit you here. smile

So, big weekend, right?

Really important to remember the things you've learned. Most important, be the man you want to be.

You know J, I feel like you've been holding your breath all this time. I'd like to see you let it out.

Just go with it, ya know?

Your family is back together. You've grown a lot. She hopefully has, too.

There is still a lot of work to be done. Without a doubt. But, this weekend, put all the crap aside, the worry aside and just enjoy what you've accomplished. Enjoy your family.

Still plenty of time to work through all the other things. Today, be joyful. Be positive. Show her that you can be.

You can do that, right? I have faith in you.

Buy a bottle of champagne and toast your future (Unless there is a drinking problem for either of you, I don't remember one though) Make a big deal out of it. Tonight, after moving all day, give her a back rub with some nice lotion or oil and let the rest happen...welcome home W smile

Well weekend went fair. I really backed off and withdrew. I have a lot of "working on my sh1t" to do. I am so confused as to what is going on with me.
