Good morning FS friends

And so the journey continues. My endo cancelled my Monday appointment and deferred it by two weeks. Not a big deal really, just that these appointments keep me on track. Of late I've been struggling with food noise again. Don't know whether that is physiological specifically a byproduct of the cortisone injected into the hands twice in the last 6 weeks, or whether my Ozempic dosage needs to be increased (still on what is considered a starter dosage), whether it is a result of boredom due to forced inactivity, whether it is seasonal affective disorder given the amount of rain, lack of sun and not being in my beloved yard with the littles. Maybe it is entirely emotional. My Christmas stockings remained empty and so I packed them away yesterday. There was nothing for me under the tree at all. Yes. It's true. I'm childish. Not that I need a darn thing, but something, anything would have been nice. John doesn't believe in celebrating birthdays or Christmas, and yet I continue to always come up with something for him (this year was a custom cover for his Harley which he stores here in my garage). When will I ever learn?

So I guess that's it. I'm a childish disappointed person. Hoping for acknowledgment from a person that is utterly incapable of providing it. I've always been a giver, whether of my time, my brainpower or of things. Not so great at receiving things but that doesn't mean that I wouldn't appreciate an attempt.

After 19 years, some things never change. I, on the other hand need to have higher expectations of those I allow into my life and value myself more. Easier said than done.

This life journey is certainly one of learning.

Over and out

you're not childish. him not celebrating birthdays and Christmas is an excuse to justify his selfishness. he knows you celebrate and he should be making the effort just because he knows it makes you happy.

Annisworkingonit… it makes me so sad to read this. You’re not selfish, but you are knowingly accepting less than you deserve. I’ve seen your posts talk about the constant sacrifices and compromises you make. Only you can change the situation and the circumstances. I sincerely hope you have an opportunity to put yourself first for a change and realize you’re worth the investment.

Thanks ladybug and HealthyCurves. I know I need to make a change and on the other hand dread doing so having lost some deep human connections through these years. I'm in the limbo state of 'something is better than nothing" when in fact "nothing" is exactly the current state. Bah.

I bought my hubby a palm sander because he needed it. An online friend got me an online advent calendar. I have probably not had any gifts other than the calendar of any kind in decades. LOL.

Can I make a suggestion? Buy something special every month for your stocking; wrap them up nice each month and put them away to put in your stocking at Christmas; and continue to be thoughtful of others in your life. You’ll probably forget some things you bought and will be pleasantly surprised. Sometimes others just need to see the change before they change. Maybe it will get better, if not maybe set an expectation for your husband to buy you a gift outside of Christmas and Birthdays. It sounds really selfish of him imho. Note: neither me nor my husband exchange gifts at Christmas usually, but it’s mutual and neither is feeling left out. I would change if it made him feel sorrowful. We do exchange birthdays and mother’s Day/Father’s Day.
