I just stopped myself from allowing the A to hurt me. I pretended he was about 3 inches tall and under a small glass dome kind of like a bug specimen. Because he was so small he was actually squeaking instead of making adult sounds. How 'bout that? J.
I have a friend that recently told me she imagined her A in pink tights and a matching tutu. We went on to invent more things as we were howling with laughter.. but it's a little too graphic. It had to do with a brown stain in the rear of his tights..lol

Those images are truly wonderful! I read a quote somewhere years ago that has stuck with me. "Make a molehill out of a molehill." (as opposed to mountain out of a molehill). When I started thinking that the A was some kind of god or had some power, I would remember that in the scheme of this world - he's but a molehille (albeit a molehill that I love), but really simply a molehill. Not the exact same imagery you're referring to, but this one always helped (helps) me calm down a bit.
Yea J. Saw my AHsober today. I prepped myself by thinking of him as something other than what he is. It sure helped. I think they sense the difference in us.
Well done! You guys and gals crack me up! I need to take these suggestions with me when I go to work. That's what I love about this program, you can use the tools anywhere and any time! I can't imagine by large manager in a pink tight and tutu, but I can imagine him being a really fat mole and Pipers Kitty pouncing on him and throwing him all over the patio! Love and blessings to you and your family.
Live strong, Karilynn & Pipers Kitty

hmm i never thought of it as a part of the program but i guess i'd been doing it a bit ... thinking of my A as a 3-yr-old having tantrums, when he was making huge deals out of what i thought of as nothings.
