no idea

Have been walking around the last few days feeling miserable and running myself down for not being able to do anything right, feeling like my family doesn't want me around, etc etc, you know how it is once you get started. Anyhoo, I was browsing through other blogs, when I read one who mentioned that her mother kept a gratitude journal in her desk draw where she would write in everyday what she was grateful for, and I thought, you know what she's right. No I'm not going to start one, but we do sometimes spend way to much wallowing on what is not going right in our lives (I know I do) and forget about all our blessings. Look at me, 7 years ago I'd have spent the day alone at home wishing for a family, now I am in a mostly loving relationship, shame he is difficult but he does try so damn hard to do right and he does love me. I've gone from struggling to have one baby to being a mother of two... and here to the list can grow, cause you know how it is once you get started. :-) So I thank God for all my blessing and I also remembered what D and I always said, when you're really feeling down something will come along to show you that you don't have it as bad as others, and another thing, something that Dad always said, something that I held onto through all miscarriages: the only thing you can't do is light a match on a bar of soap! (of course with todays advancements some idiot has probably figured out how)

Anyway, P and D, sorry for mutilating your blog, but I just felt this need to get this out there.

  1. YAY! A posted!
    I am sure that getting that out helped make you feel better right? You did not mutilate the blog - cos it's your blog too and you should feel free to post whatever, whenever :D
    I hope you are feeling better.
    More wisdom from Dad huh? I think I am going to have to start another list and include "how not to get on your bike and ride! (specially when the bike is still locked to the lamppost!). However, he is right! There is not much you cannot do! Your kids are blessed to have you as their mom!

  2. You do know I love you like crazy? (and yeah I know we as a family are crazy so that is a bit of an oxysomethingorotherI'mprettysureDwilltellme,) and you are more than welcome to write anything you darn well want on your blog (cause like D said this is your blog too.)

    I loved what you wrote, and I totally agree, and one of the things I am most grateful for is that God gave me my very own 'A' team to love and protect and be loved and protected by when he gave me you and D. And you are an amazing Mom!

    LUL (love you lots)
