I went on a diet and this time I did things a little different-I started dieting on Sat. Now really have you ever heard of anyone starting a diet on a Sat. Really???? But I knew that I wanted to get some kind aof control and my dd wanted to go on a diet also and she started this morning----but I know me and I knew if I waited until Monday that I would have the mindset of "I'm going on a diet so I better eat all of my favorite foods before Monday."
So two days under the diet belt and it is going really good.
I started this diet a little different too-a very severe low carb fast almost--mostly eggs and pork and beef. Last night I had a small salad. Today I will add another low carb veggie. I feel good and positive about what I am doing and I know that as long as I keep a positive attitude about what I am doing I have a better chance of success.
My son in law is still coming and staying hour after hour after hour. I really am tired of it-about 3 weeks ago I told him that when he comes he needs to leave after an hour or two and not come every day. He rolled his eyes at me and said he came to see his wife and son. Rolling your eyes at me does not make me happy and I told him that if she wanted to be with him she would not be at my house and heneeded to leave. He had soemthing in his hands and he thru it down on the floor and told baby to get out of his way he was leaving because I was too controlling. I am stressed to the point of screaming. It did not do any good at all, he is still coming and staying and staying.
Lets see, I have been sick with a terrible sinus infection but I think I am on the way to getting better.
I feel almost hypocritical posting a bible verse considering how I am feeling about son in law coming .
but this one keeps coming into my mid so here it is.
King James Bible
And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Have a wonderful day
God bless you

Happy Monday to you, Joy! How easy is it to (say you will) start again on Monday, but you've already got a two-day start, *and* you've got a plan!
ReplyDeleteStill praying for your situation. If it got dangerous, I'd call the police. I know you do the very best you can and are always trying to be fair to everyone, even when they don't have the same consideration for you. Keep your eyes on Christ. Keep loving as He loved.
Love ya, and God bless!
Hi, Joy. Wahoo you! on the eating plan. :D
ReplyDeleteIMO. It is your house. You have the right to limit visits to certain days and hours. You have the right to say that if your restrictions are not followed, you will consider it trespass and threatening--and will call the police.
If you haven't already, you need to have a talk with your daughter. Find out, for sure, what she wants. If she does not want him there so often/long, she needs to tell him that he needs to abide by your restrictions.
If she is afraid of him, afraid to tell him, you still need to talk to her. You guys need to figure out how to handle this situation in a way that is safe. But, obviously, it can't go on like this.
If you find that she actually wants him there, but likes living with mom--well, then, you have a different problem than you thought!
I'm praying for wisdom for you all.
