And the fact that you're not enjoying shopping nearly as much is going to help a lot. You can change it, if you want, and I'll be here cheering you on the whole way. :)<br /><br />Penny, I am going to go into that in the next few days. It's easier than you'd think, but you can do it.<br /><br />Hi Shari, I'm glad you are gaining insight to your husband's behavior.

I spent four days filling three 10x30 foot dumpsters with the contents of one 1100 sq foot two bedroom house. In addition, one stuffed 24 foot box van to an auction house.<br /><br />Not one of the highlights of my life.

I have a physical reaction when I recyclable is trashed. I can give away anything but I have huge problems throwing anything away. <br />How did you manage to get your head in a place where this responsibility wasn't in control?Pennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12735745787631065552noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5544369219259741408.post-3593523301322217492012-01-20T06:51:08.499-07:002012-01-20T06:51:08.499-07:00I can totally relate.
