Tonight I find myself sitting here with that all too familiar feeling of guilt. Why do I do things that I know I'll regret? Sometimes it's just easier maybe to give in and not put up a fight, but this only leads to more pain in the end. Change is scary. To my mind, change seems like a threat, even if it's really in my best interest. Maybe I don't think I'm strong enough to stick with long term change. I've tried before and failed. My mind tells me that, but it fails to tell me of the times I've tried and succeeded. Why is it so easy to remember all the negative things? I can almost word for word remember every insult that's been tossed at me, but vaguely remember the compliments. Maybe standing up to peer pressure for the moment would require some strength, but it would yield long term peace of mind. Being able to live with the person I am would be worth it. Why do I make choices to please other people when I know those choices will hurt me in the end? I'm ready to stop this. I am ready to put my peace of mind above everything else. I want to be proud of the person I am when I lay my head on my pillow each night. A different choice may initially seem painful but that pain comes from steering myself out of the giant ruts I've created in my life. The deeper the rut, the harder the turn. What would it be like to be proud of myself and to make those who care about me and who have invested their time in my life proud of me? It's not a familiar feeling, but it's one I am determined to experience.

You can do this and deserve to be proud of who you are. A few quote lines from Eleanor Roosevelt might be good for you to remember.
· “No one can make you feel inferior without your consent.” ...
· “A woman is like a tea bag; you never know how strong it is until it's in hot water.” ...
· “Do one thing every day that scares you.” ...
· “Do what you feel in your heart to be right – for you'll be criticized anyway.”

If anyone else is getting coal for Christmas, let's get together and start up the grill or something. Want to? 😉

🎃🎃 When witches go riding, and black cats are seen, the moon laughs and whispers, ’tis near Halloween.

See my fellow EE's our behavior isn't our fault after all

There comes a point in life where you have to walk away from all the pointless drama and the people who create it, and surround yourself with the people who make you laugh so hard you forget the bad and focus solely on the good. After all, life is too short to be anything but happy.

I have now read "Happy Spanksgiving" so many times that it has begun to sound like the 'correct' salutation for today... I am genuinely concerned that I will now accidentally greet a non-spanko that way, instead of with "Happy Thanksgiving"...
Nevertheless, whichever one you're celebrating, or even if it's just Thursday: have a good one, friends. I wish you a day of love and laughter.

This sucks! I've caught a cold! I hope to feel better tomorrow. I don't want to miss work.
I was asked if I've taken Theraflu. My answer was "No...but I've drank some amaretto.....with lime juice and honey!" Hey, whatever works! Cheers!

Spankee paradox no. 27: a spanking you don't want can mean much more than a spanking you do want... So, conversely, you want it more...
