I suck.I kinda sorta KNEW I was sucking about a month ago.
Okay......there's no 'kinda sorta' to that. I KNEW I was sucking.
I KNEW I was off the path. I knew I was wandering away from 'my job' in all this with the Brit.
And I knew I was letting myself get sideblinded by work, by the demands and by the chaotic moments that seem to be happening over and over again.
The other day I walked out to go to work and failed to give himself any kind of 'see ya later' comment/hug/kiss..... Nada. That's what I said, that's what I gave him.
Now, I didn't recognize I'd done that.
I went through the day, warp speed with my hair on fire. (that's pretty much the norm as of late)
I got home, did some tasky kinda things and himself managed to tell me what I'd NOT done that morning.
Oh yeah.......you can bet I tripped all over myself apologizing and felt (a well deserved) crappy.
Silly me thought that was a done deal.
*whapping self*
What WAS I thinking?!
We revisited it today. Not cuz he's been on my case about it--he's not an 'on my case' sorta person.
Fact is, we don't squabble or have tiffs or get into all that 'stuff'.
Fact is, we don't squabble or have tiffs or get into all that 'stuff'.
This is the first time we've had to visit something of this nature.
I'm generally on top of 'doing my job' in the relationship.
But at this moment---I suck.
And the heck of it is, I KNEW I was sucking at loving how I wanted to love for more than a few days....or weeks.....
All this........'stuff' that was yanking me a million different directions got in the way cuz I let it.
And I KNEW I was letting it get in the way.
It was in my inventory at the end of the day.
I had all sortsa bells and whistles going off, telling me to pay attention.
*whapping self in the head*
Dumb, dumb, DUMB!!
I SUCK!
And now I've gotta wrap my head around doing some sort of 'corrective plan' so I can get my 'stuff' back in order. I'm NOT pleased that I've let some things go by the wayside between himself and I. I'm beyond 'upset' that I've let some things get bigger than they 'oughta' be.
HE'S fine cuz he knows it's not about him.
And truly, it's NOT about him one iota.
I'm NOT fine --because I know I SUCK.
Why would I wanna be 'fine' with SUCKING?
*mumbling*
I SUCK.

nah....you'd only suck if you didn't want to get it all back in order.
on second thought....maybe a bit of sucking would help in the "corrective plan" smile
At least you realise this and you can do something about it! I'm right there with you baby! I suck too!
I am sure you are being way to hard on yourself. I don't imagine he is nearly as upset about everything as you are or imagine him to be.
The most important thing is you realize there is an area of you life you want to change, it give you the opportunity to change it. I know you can do or accomplish anything you set your mind to.

If you suck that's Ok, it's your life. But give yourself a break here Mel, cause i know you don't suck all the time.
If you did you wouldn't write so well on your blog and in your comments. And therefore i'm shore the Brit gets good bits of you to.
But hey listen to me MS sorted out!! We all suck so that's OHK then.
And you could always take on board the words you've got above this post!!

You don't suck and you better stop saying that because you're beating up on my friend and that just won't do.
You know how to love, you do love and you will love. Somedays we're good at expressing this love and somedays we're not so good at it, but as has been mentioned here - now that you have taken it into account you have the power to do something about it.
I love you my loving friend. Be good to you.
Remember now, peace, love and understanding and that applies to us all and for us all.
