One of those days..........or nights

      Have you ever had one of those moments, "Did they really just say that?"  What about about,"Did that really just happen?"  Or may be just,"WTF."  I'm pretty sure we all have been there and done that and sometimes wish we hadn't. When that happens, we often find ourselves taking a step back (if we can) and taking a deep breath. In other cases, we need to leave the room to avoid saying something we may regret. Then there's the select few that just need to let off that steam that was created and punch the other guy/girl in the face. Ouch, I wouldn't want to be on the other end of that fist.

      Have you ever noticed that when you get married, the first advice is, "Never go to bed angry. Talk about it and fix the problem before going to bed next to the person you're mad at." Or at least something along those lines. If you are married, how many times did you follow that advice? Did working it out help? Did it seem to be getting worse every time you spoke? Now that some time had passed, does things seem easier now? Here's my advice, I don't care how long you've been married, marriage is hard. However, as long as both of you are willing to work hard at it and make it work then you have a pretty solid marriage. Those of you doing it for the kids, stop. They were the problems, they see that you are no longer a team, and it hurts them too. Don't wait till they're grown up or just a little bit older to understand. No matter when you do it, it's going to hurt them just as much if not more, but the longer you wait, the harder it will be for them to accept it and move on. I've been there. I acted up and was labeled the bad kid and before I knew it, my life has changed.

      I just thought I would talk to you guys for a little while, just some passing thoughts. Till next time folks...........
