I AM PROUD OF MY PROBLEM SOLVING!

Love my grandkids — Wed, 15 May 2019 22:04:42 GMT

Today I had a sketchy problem, not emotional physical or family, and tried the obvious solution. No dice.

Tried something else, almost worked but not quite.

Talked to my son and he said something that triggered the "solution"!! I am so pleased that I figured this out. Whew!

@dex I will say nicely that I'd rather not say. Nothing bad just nothing for strangers! Thanks for understanding.

@RetRN If you post was directed at me, wow. I just don't want to trot my personal problems out to a publc forum. If that annoys you...oh well!

Rather than sharing 'secrets,' I think the point of this thread is to celebrate the satisfaction she acquired by handling a situation on her own. It is a confidence boost.

Being a new widow, and living alone for the first time in my life, I 'get' it. Baby steps. Good for you, @Love my grandkids !

Re your son: 'he said something that triggered the "solution"!!

At least give him a hug, a kiss or a pat on the back!
