I know that my friend Sam added this to her 43 things for me. I give her kudos because I need to work on this with her and a few others as well. I sometimes get so carried away with things in my own life that everyone and everything else gets placed on the back burner. I love all my friends dearly. Although, I do not have very many close friends, the ones I have I try to cherish like they are part of my family. I just need to be a better friend and not so neglectful when everything else in life gets crazy.
Anyway…....to my close friends(you know who you are). I love you all and I will try to be a better friend to all of you.

We all have had that one person that knows exactly how to push our buttons. And no matter how hard we try to be calm it always seems to make you just want to tell them where to get off. I know I have a few people in my life that can do that to me. I try my hardest to not say anything and just take the attitude of”if you can’t do anything about it, then just leave it alone.” But I have not got to the point of leaving things alone. I want to do this and will continue to try to stay calm in any situation…....Any help you have to offer me in accomplishing this….I would most definately appreciate it..

My boyfriend called me from his job earlier today. He was exremely stressed and angry about his job. He started to take it out on me then I asked if he needed a hug. I told him that I would drive to his job and just give him a big hug to make him feel better. I also told him that I understood his frustration and that being stressed about work happens to all of us sometimes.
I could hear him smiling through the phone. I know it sounds crazy but his stress turned in to a positive happy moment. Just letting him know I was willing to drive and hug him and that I understood him made him seem a little better. So I am thinking that if I am a better listener and just let him know I am there with a hug if he needs it then it will make us stronger.
I love him with all my heart. We have been through alot together in the 3 years we have been together. He is my “Rock”
I never once lost my temper when he took his stress out on me and it just made for a very positive result…
