If he knows something is important to me, he really thinks about it and does his best to understand. I think this particular thing was easy for him to understand once he grasped what I was saying. We've talked in general before about how clients usually have to pay when boundaries bend for some reason then go back into place. So it wasn't a totally foreign concept to him.
I hope everyone at Babble feels the peace and joy I feel this Christmas, for the first time in a long time.
I always loved Christmas as a child. It was the one time of year that my father was reliably in a great mood so it was especially wonderful. My husband is the exact opposite, being in a reliably tense and unhappy mood at Christmas. This year I'm not letting it bother me. I'm looking forward to Roast Beast and Yorkshire Pudding and Lemon Syllabub. And the Grinch and Rudolph and Christmas songs and gold and silver wrapped presents under the tree for the very first time ever (since we have the tree somewhere where the dogs can't actually get to).
