maeday42's Journal, 15 February 2020

As usual I sabotaged myself. About 3 days ago I told my husband "sorry Bade, just got an email from Amazon, your present won't be here until Sat". Letting know I got him something, he usually doesnt think in a romantic way. Well, Valentine's day arrived and I gave him a card and told him I was sorry his gift was delayed (it was a music CD he wanted, I put a picture of it in his card). He went for the mail and brought back a padded envelope, I just knew it was something for me. Turns out he bought himself a set of wrenches ( he's 58, he's got a ton of wrenches). My Mom who lives near us, bought us a Valentine's dinner from a local restaurant, of course an Italian restaurant. I had planned to eat a bit of chicken Picatta and call it a day. I follow Keto and limit carbs most days. I After feeling sad and unloved, I added a bunch of bread, pasta and wine to my dinner. Today I feel like crap, I'm further from my goal and Its no ones fault but my own. I could sit here and blame my husband, but I've been with him a very long time and he wouldn't know a romantic gesture if he fell over it. At this point in my life I should know better then to run to food when I'm sad, II know he's clueless, but I also know inside he loves me. I wonder if I'll ever break this self sabotage cycle.

I get where you are coming from. I do that as well. But we are not perfect. You have a yellow line so you are working it!! It is a new day

Many years ago when we were first married, I realized my husband didn't do Valentine's Day. Solution, I used to buy myself a small jewelry item, usually heart shaped. Then I would say, "See what you got me for Valentine's Day?" He hasn't changed in 36 years of marriage. We have learned to celebrate non holidays. Romantic and spontaneous. I hope you can find this peace and please don't be upset with yourself. 😘
