Whatever you put your time, energy, and money into will become more important to you. Its hard to care for something you are not investing in. Along with restraining from negative comments, buy your spouse something that says, "I was thinking of you today."
the journaling part is this
What did you choose to give your spouse? What happened when you gave it to them?

Well yesterday while talking to him on the phone, he complained about his bitter apples. so while at the store, I got him 4 beautiful ones, a pack of his fav gum, and put it in a blue bag. while talking last nite, he made a comment to me that he listened. so on my note with the apples I said I listen too...
He loved them this morning when he got his bag before work. now to just avoid the negative today will be a success!!
Wonderful.
Now. Try not to be so hard on yourself. And remember, even if you slip up; what defines you is your resolve to understand that one slip doesn't mean anything more than you slipped up once. Apologize if necessary and get right back to your plan.
You sound like you are doing well. Keep it up.
and don't forget to breathe.

its hard! today when we have talked, I can tell he is beyond preoccupied. I dont know if that is good or bad, I am putting my all into this, afraid of what if its not enuff?
ok breathe now
It IS hard. If it were easy the lessons learned would most likely not be there in the end.
You have to find that sweet spot between putting everything you have into this and making sure you leave something for yourself. It is trial and error.
Try not to speculate about his moods. There is no way to know why he is {seems} preoccupied without asking him. The thing is...he may not even know.
keep your chin up.
and don't forget to breathe.

thanks again blondie. I think my fear, and my wonder about his moods at work is because she is there, and of course, he wont talk about thier status, let alone our status. She gets to be around him all day, and I get whatever is left of him at the end of his day. I dont and will never trust her, and she is right there, waiting to pounce.........
breathe again.
Do you have the time to put up the next couple dares, including todays? I don't have the book {nor am I participating in the 40 days} but I would like to help you and those who read as much as possible. There is something to be said for being so far removed from a situation. It allows a person to view it with different eyes.
keep your chin up.
and don't forget to breathe.
