When you find yourself having a self-pity party, what do you do to get out of it?

I don't have pity parties. If I give the devil a toehold he tries to take over. I get down sometimes but when I do, I pray...and solicit prayers.

Let's see. Still working a lot but I have trimmed my hours down to 56 per week. There is a special person in my life that I'm getting to know pretty well...don't know where that's headed but so far I'm blessed. My daughters and I are doing well, have some trouble with them on occasion but hey, I wasn't the greatest kid in the world either. I taught Sunday school recently and had a great discussion. God is good!!

Hey, J9,
Here is my first question for you now that the forums are back up...
What are five reasons why someone would want to spend the rest of his life with you? What are three reasons why he would not.
(And may I add ... Woot!)

Hmmmmm....interesting question. Do you lay awake at night thinking of questions? I'll give it a go though. 1. God is #1 in my life.2. I'm a good cook.3. I'm a flirt and tease and it all would be directed towards you.4. I retire next year and we can travel together.5. When I give my heart, I give it forever. I am faithful and honest and you'd have no worries about where your wife is and what she is doing.1. I am a procrastinator (I was going to answer this tomorrow...heehee).2. I'm stubborn...yeah, yeah...that can be a good thing too.3. I like tickling. Oh...btw....WOOT!!!

For me, I'd rather be proposed to in private. As we walk in the woods, or on the beach, or when I'm washing dishes and you're drying...anything that isn't a big production. I think any of the quiet times alone would be wonderful.

When a person marries, they somewhat sever the cord of dependency on and allegiance to their parents. To sever the cord of dependency is to not be dependent upon parents for material or emotional support. Severing allegiance means a transfer of riorities from parents to spouse. If you marry, which of these will be the most difficult to sever and why?(By the way, are you capable of living far from your mother or daughters if it would happen.)

A lighter one:When you are sick, do you prefer to be doted on and waited on hand and foot? Or do you prefer to be undisturbed and left alone?When one of your loved ones around you is sick, do you want to coddle and nurture them, or do you want them to keep their germs to themselves and n ot bring you into it?

Oh...I'm one of those women that loved to be waited on when I'm sick...I lay on the couch and moan. It drives my girls crazy but the moaning helps.
On the other hand, when someone is sick in the house I turn into a nurse. Expect to be pampered and nurtured.

Hard one.
Even though my Mom is my neighbor, I'm not dependent on her for anything. When we first moved here she helped with my girls but they are adults now. On the other hand, if she needs me, I'm close. So in essence, I won't have to sever a cord that doesn't exist.
On the second part of your question. I would be capable of living away from my daughters and mother...if pressed into it. With airfare fairly reasonable, they are only a few hours away from anywhere.
