To those of you of a certain age and growing up in the US this will ring something to you. I got my first pair of Calvin Klein jeans. They feel amazing. I cant wait to wear them out

It's harder to love and create than hate and destroy. Love and creation takes more energy. Where hate and destruction can be done with a single word that can haunt you for a life time.

Do you use white noise generating devices in your ear, or headphones/earbuds that reduce the background noise?
Always stay cheerful, be polite, kind, and understanding. Accepting yourself as the woman you are is very liberating.  Never underestimate the appreciation and respect of authenticity.  Help connect a person to someone that may be able to help that person.  Be brave, be strong.  A TRUE friend is a treasure.  Relationships are very important, people are important, and the sooner we all realize that the better off the world will be.  Try a little kindness.  Be generous with your time, energy, wisdom, and resources.   Inconvenience yourself to help someone.   I am a brown eyed, brown haired woman.

You want to wear them outside the home or do you want them to wear out? 

I think I know what you mean, the former.

Some white noise a lot of music or anything to keep the whine covered. It never stops. I have to have the TV on at bed just so the noise is covered enough to get to sleep

Sometimes the rips add a fashionable look.  I will wear short shorts at home but not in public.
One I made from an old pair of jeans.

I got in a little non trouble, trouble the other day. My wife and I were folding laundry and my wife held up a pair of my jeans. She asked if they were mine, they were women's jeans and I said yes. She said ok, then she asked me what size I was wearing. I told her and she got a little funny look on her face. She then told me we were wearing the same sized jeans. She also told me she didn't like that we were wearing then same sized clothes.
Like I said not trouble, trouble. I liked it. She has bigger breast but I have hopes

My wife had her surgery. It wasn't as bad as though it was going to be.
They gave her some Ketamine. I've never seen her so stoned. She said se had a feeling of floating through a canyon that was made of colored blocks. Then I got her home and she slept 6 hours.
Her eye lids looks like she is wearing heavy 80's eye makeup after getting in a fight with Mike Tyson.
I'm trying to get a few minutes to talk to her but she's been on the phone with my daughter and her work. I'm trying

I can kind of somewhat relate, Kellie. After years of sleeping on a submarine, with constant noise... I cannot sleep in silence. It's too loud. I tend to fall asleep to YouTube videos these days.

I can recommend this...

That's what I'm talking about. The higher frequency noises tend to make things worse.

When you say "talk to her" are you meaning "THE talk"? If so I hope it goes well for you Kellie.

Yes, the talk. It didn't happen today. Even though she was off she was on the phone until after 2 and then we had to run some errands.
I hope she can be off the phone tomorrow 😩

There's no rush Kellie, Wait until the timing is as right as possible.

Well I did not get a chance to have the talk with my wife. I had her in my truck fir 5 hours yesterday and she had work issues she was dealing with or my oldest daughter was talking to her. I think I might just have to make an appointment with her and get it out.
She still looks like she went round with a boxer. She had a work function i drove her to and she wore over sized sunglasses the entire time. By the end of the day she had bruising down her cheeks. She put ice packs on her eyes and it helped.
Another work day, but I took time off in such a way that I work today and am off for two days

I hope you two will have good conversations soon about everything.
Time must be made for attentive discussions.


But this would apply to any two people, of course.

These conversations are so hard as only one thing needs to feel off at the time and the moment no longer feels right. If you need a push to do it then maybe book something that means you need to tackle this first. Like maybe an appointment with therapy to discuss the result of the conversation. Kinda like a social contract. Its tough though and often in this life there isn't a good time. Sometimes you got to get in first before any other drama.

I agree with Charlotte, and your idea of booking an appointment. It can be just a simple note that you want some personal time together to talk about something important. That way, she knows that you want her to be focused on the conversation and not distracted by work or outside issues. It is important that you have her full attention for this. If not, she could miss something important, or even misinterpret something you say due to her thinking about something else.

Good luck. You got this.

I really do wish you well Kellie but on this subject I don't think I can be of any help. I don't know anything about relationships. I wish I could be of some use. I'll just have to support you from the sidelines!

I appreciate that you care. I just have to get her when her phone isn't blowing up. The right time will arrive
