The wristband does remind me, although the new has worn off - like stepping over pile of dirty laundry.  It has led to several conversations when people ask me what it is about.  I stumble a bit and tell them it is to help me to be aware of when I get caught up in drama and make more positive choices.  Feel like I need a little elevator speech.

Few who ask follow up with more questions or seem to want to engage or know more.  I am ok with that, but wonder if it’s the way I explain it.  There are exceptions.  My father, Christy and one of my best friends have read the book and engage in an ongoing dialog about DDT and TED.

Conversation with MaryEllen led to a decision to use the band a while longer to help me be more aware of when I am slipping into my “favorite” DDT role.
