33.54 - 57.026 Glennon

it out? Okay, I'm so excited that this is recorded. I just feel like I have been suffering for so long with Abby's need to make every bodily function terrifying. Like the sneeze would register on the Richter scale with how loud it is. And even the yawn, which is like a quiet thing. And then there's like an animal scream after.

57.046 - 58.147 Abby

It's not a quiet thing for me.

59.308 - 60.329 Glennon

That's it. That's right.

60.529 - 68.112 Abby

That's right. This is a thing in our marriage that isn't going to change. This is what we're going to keep doing until we're dead. Yeah.

68.232 - 74.115 Amanda

This is the only area of my marriage in which I've been able to actually achieve radical acceptance.
