From this point forward; I am going to try to the best of my ability to focus on everything GOOD that happens in my life; in my relationship with my W, and my relationship with God. Please hold me accountable for this: one of my biggest problems in our relationship was that I was too negative all of the time - one of my W's biggest ENs is being happy and around happy people; so please - if you see me being negative slap me a good one and remind me of this topic!

I hope all are having an excellent day! God bless you!

Deal if you will also do the same for me. I am tired of being negative and mad. I am trying to be a happier more positive person.

Hey FoxOr,

OK you can drop the "shadow of death" from your sig line now.

Pick a more positive one. OK.

How 'bout Isaiah 40:31

Fox, Sounds like we went to the same school. It was one of my W big EN,s. Some Ideas I do that help.

Put a big pasty note on my steering wheel(last thing I see before I get home) Leave the negativity at the door. SMILE when entering the house.

On my cellphone, on the banner heading (which talks when opened) that says BE Positve!

When I feel I am negative, <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> (blushing) I think of the best SF I have had with W. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" /> Always seems to cheer me up. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

and last, I try to put a smile on my W face. She has such a beautiful smile.

It works majority of the time.

don't forget though, you are entitled to some downtime, but keep it on your time.

best of luck, I will check with you later.

Cancergirl, same with you, see if it works, I will check with you also. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Well - God couldn't have tested my new found attitude soon enough. Literally five minutes after this post I realized my wallet was taken out of my backpack yesterday at work - I have no ID, no money, nothing now.
