Hi, thanks again for your support. I feel much better this afternoon. And no, I didn't recognise what he said as quacking - that is until you guys straightened me out. I thank you for that.
Smoke, I will remember what you said about going into protective mode - this is when I usually get into trouble - puppies, kids, cats - when I think they are threatened I see RED! LOL And yes, I need to use the Serenity Prayer more often. At my meeting they were taking about saying it through gritted teeth until you can say it calmly.
And no more beating myself up for the rest of the day! I did do well considering the circumstances and what I have done in simular circumstances in the past. Next time will be even better. I am forever grateful...........
