My wife Robbie reads my weblog (Hi Sweetie!) and sometimes comments on it later in the day. A few times we’ve gotten into arguments about whatever the issue was I was writing about, which has proven to be helpful.
I learned early on though, that it’s only fair to check with her if I’m planning to reveal something about our relationship that she might not want made public in this blog. So I keep a separate journal for those entries, as well as other stuff about my life or the business that wouldn’t be appropriate to post here. Most of the stuff from yesterday’s family therapy session with my mother I can’t post here in any detail. I’ll write more later as I make sense of what the implications are for me.
The session went well, though. My mother made an appointment with the therapist to work on her own issues 1 to 1. I’m glad for her. And us.
