A quote from a recovered MLCer: 
"From my experience if my H had let me go a long time ago, and stop pressuring me, begging, and pleading and just let go I possibly would have experienced my awakening sooner than I did."

My present to myself this Christmas was a Himalayan Salt tea light holder.
Casts a nice glow in the room to sleep by.

There are two ways of spreading light:
Be the candle; or the mirror that reflects it

Don't ask why someone is still hurting you; ask why you keep letting them.What you allow continues.

At some point you have to get sick of going through the same sh!t.

Women are NOT rehabilitation centers for badly raised men. It is not your job to fix ,parent, raise or change him.
You want a partner not a project.

My present to myself was, eating too much on Christmas Day and not! the day after and the day after...  I did an hour walk alone on the day and got out at least 20 minutes the last two days.  It warms me up and lightens my mood.  I have also kept in mind something my niece said, 'no-one loses weight during Christmas'.  Sounds trite but the weight thing really does drag me into the doldrums.
