Good Morning

It's morning where I am. My exN used to send me good morning texts. Everyday I would know where I stood with him before I got out of bed (if he wasn't in my bed). The texts might be in all caps, have exclaimation points, come later, come earlier, lower case, contain a term of endearment. Whatever...it all had meaning and indicated to me what to expect from him that day. I still miss those texts, because even if they were lower case and didn't arrive until almost noon I still had contact with him, especially after a d&d. I got something from it.
Well, today it isn't that way. I get to wake up and decide for myself that I am going to have a narc free day. I can make plans and not have them sabataged by the n. I can decide for myself to maintain emotional sobriety and have balance in my life. I can take care of myself and my responsiblities without critisism or blame. I can deal with my kids without his attempted distractions for attention. I can count on not being put down or abused by anyone in my life because I don't hang out with people like that anymore. I'm pretty sure it's gonna be a great day. I wish the same to all of you. You deserve it! Was it Spinning or Used or someone else that told me this may happen to me if I stayed NC? THANK YOU SO MUCH!! (note all caps and exclaimation).

Texting

I think texting is addictive. I started texting with my nieces about Christmas. Thats fun too. Better than with the n EVERYONE else ALWAYS texts nice things.

Peaches, my sweet!

This is so awesome and I must tell you something rather 'synchronistic.' I woke up this morning thinking of you! Seriously! I was thinking of what a corner you turned since the FB fiasco and the lesson you took and ran with! It is amazing! Isn't it remarkable what happens the more TRUE NC YOU GET??? Peaches, this is AWESOME! I hope this is one of many GOOD MORNINGS!! (note caps and exclamation points) you will have. You have really, truly come far since committing to full NC and your posts and help to others is already shining through! Way to go, sister! Most sincerely, (not) spinning. BECAUSE THE MORNING IS TOO GOOD TO SPIN FOR ANY MAN, FOR ANYONE!

Synchronistic

Thank-you. That is really cool. Finding this site was synchronistic. I am so grateful for your wisdom and support. The facebook fiasco! No kidding, what a lesson! I did many things regarding the n that I felt shame over. Things that went against my judgement and beliefs. Those things are not who I am. I am finding me again with the help I recieve here. NC is amazing! I highly recommend it. With NC my brain is mine to use how I choose. It's bed time here. He used to text good night too. But now he's BLOCKED!!! Thanks again (not) spinning because the night time is too good to spin for any man or anyone.
