MONDAY CHIP---HUMOR/HUMORLESS
Humor is essential in my life, on some days it helps me to stay
sane. My problem is, I often have what is called a "dry"
sense of humor. It can be kinda embarrassing when you are
the only one that got the joke.  Sometimes, even in the
most bizarre moments, I can find humor in it.
Humorless?
Yep, I have times when I feel like my face might break if I so
much as crack a smile. Days where I think nothing else could
possibly go wrong and just about then it always does. But
thru the years I have learned the warning signs and try to
shake it off. I've learned that just because a day can start
wrong, I have the ability to turn it around. I have to remind
myself to "Keep It Simple" and I can feel myself being restored
to composure. (less elegantly said: GET A GRIP)
How about you, do you have a sense of Humor or do you
lean towards Humorless?
Peace on the journey, SunnyGirl

I have alot of reason at times to be humorless, but I try to find humor in something else to get my mind off of it.
Yesterday my hubby was drinking. He was jsut put on abilify Monday and then drank on Tuesday. I jsut said..plese don't drink any more today. Your new medicine can't work right if you drink with it. He blew a gasket. He told me I was bossy to everybody around me. m He todl me he was thinking ab9to leaving and while I am at work he is planning ot take all of the money out of the checking account and my credit union. I have a retirement check and two jobs. ALot of that miney is mine,. But if he's this crazy, what on earth woudl I do??? I had to take Baby Girl to her obedience training and when I got home he was gone. He came home 3 hours later..so drunk he was staggering jsut to stand. He ate something and passed out for the night. Thanks God. While he was gone, I had reason to be humorless, but I had a freind over and we played with my Wii Fit.
I am not sure what I will say to him, but this bank threat is not good. If I say somethign, I will be "bossing" again in his eyes.
Not good.

Several years ago, Honey made a series of withdraws from our joint savings account. It was a very large sum of money! I did not learn of this until I got the bank statement. I went immediately and withdrew all but $20 from this account and opened a new account in my name only. I never said a word to Honey! The next time he went to make a with-drawl, he had only a balance of $20 and could not get the $500 he wanted.  He did not mention this to me for a good long while and when he did finally say something he did so with a very sheepish look on his face. I kept this account in my name for quite some time, never allowing him the option of taking money out that belonged to both of us. I have always believed that marriage is a partnership and if you have no trust in the partner you have to protect yourself. Honey is no longer acting on his addiction to gambling and I added his name to this account about 3 years ago. He has earned my trust and once again I can honestly say I trust him. Peace on the journey, SunnyGirl |

Our account woudl be in such trouble if either of us did this. We have automatic withdrawals for insurance each month. That woudl sure make a mess when insurance policies could not get paid and we got cancelled.
Happy to hear that worked for you!

Lord, teach me patience, and remind me that it is hard work, but well worth the labor.
Guide me in all I do to remember that waiting is the answer to some of my prayers,
and that when I need You, You will be there to help me. ~ Amen and Amen~
You're in my thoughts and prayers..... SunnyGirl
