Recap and my latest area of focus

Exercise went well this week.  Five days out of seven.  Of course, some mean-spirited imp who is against me exercising (ah - I wonder if I'm actually sabotaging myself???) allowed me to bang my toe on a pile of tile this afternoon.  But I still worked out today.  Hopefully I can keep it up, as it does really hurt still (mid-foot).

This week's project is to....
Speak Nicely (especially to my husband)

I seem to be realizing that I speak negatively a lot.  I don't think it's intended to be mean-spirited, but more of a habit at this point.  Like maybe it moved from sarcasm to a vent for any negative feelings I have.  But that's not fair to him.  Especially when I speak negatively about him in front of other people.  We're a team, and if I have issues with him, I need to speak to him directly (and in love!!!).  In front of others, we should be a united front of people who love each other and want to show each other support.

So, I intend to catch myself BEFORE saying anything negative this week.  But if I don't, I need to apologize for it (if it's hurtful to others).  And really be more careful with my speaking.
