NaBloPoMo November 2012 Prompt
Wednesday, November 7, 2012:
Talk about the last compliment you received.

The most recent compliment I received was from my husband, just today, when he told me that I am a very strong person.

Funny thing is that I don’t feel particularly strong. I’ve certainly been stretched beyond my normal comfort zone over the past month or so as I’ve stepped into the temporary role of caregiver, housekeeper, chief cook and bottle washer, but strong? I don’t know. I think I’m just doing what I have to do, same as anyone else would behave if they found themselves in a similar position.

Then again, I have been known to be fairly skilled at pooh-poohing compliments and minimizing my positive attributes, so who knows? Maybe I am a very strong person!

What was the last compliment you received?

Yes, my guess is that you don’t realize your own strength!!

Cheers, Jenn

He’s the man living with you, he should know! 🙂 But seriously, you come across as being very focused and having it all together, Dawn. So I can see what your husband means.
