Keep writing. <br /><br />Love ya, ABBarb's blessingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01159630432017083920noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8598862945390612019.post-14115734197379397852010-07-06T16:09:19.848-07:002010-07-06T16:09:19.848-07:00My husband is a 4th yr surgical resident, and we a...My husband is a 4th yr surgical resident, and we also have a 7 yr old, 5 yr old, and 2 yr old. (We would also have a crawling baby, but I miscarried last summer.) <br /><br />Anyways, I agree that writing your thoughts is essential to succeeding in a high-stress lifestyle. I adore my journal with all my heart--I write everything down, analyze it, reread it, PRAY, come to sensible conclusions, and finally learn to cope...and then smile and feel happy again.<br /><br />It's so hard for your completely sleep-deprived husband to be what he would be otherwise...(practical, organized, dependable, conversive...you know, the basics.) :)<br /><br />He and I both understand that...but sometimes being ignored is still just being ignored, and it hurts--even when you understand the reason (he's TIRED!) So (when he IS home) I sometimes send him to bed early, MISS him, and pull out the journal. We don't watch TV, and I really like to reflect on the day before I go to sleep. It keeps me feeling at peace.<br /><br />By the way--is this a second residency your husband just started? Just curious! :)Jamie Lambhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05545375584768570518noreply@blogger.com
