  • images cheese FHIF.jpg I’m feeling more like myself. I’m smiling and laughing and it feels good. If I could just get rid of this cold… *sigh* One thing at a time.

    Thought I’d share some pictures by artists I like. Why? Just cause I want to.

    My favorite poet, he never grew up, so why should I shel silverstein.jpg

    Just a few things that make me happy and I thought I’d share.

  • I have this problem… I obsess… Something bad happens and I obsess, Something is going to happen and I obsess… I think about it over and over, I make myself sick to my stomach. I know I’m doing it and that makes it worse. I try to stop and I just can’t.

    I don’t handle confrontation well at all. Especailly when someone says something to me that has even just a bit of validity. I might not agree with them at first but then the obsessing kicks in and I think ‘Did I do that?’ ‘Did I not do that?’ ‘Am I that way?’ ‘Am I horrible?’ I make excuses or what feels like excuses, but may be reasoning… And I finish with a giant pile of self loathing… Which I especially hate because you know what, I like myself… I don’t want to have to feel like I don’t. I wish I could just say F**k it… but I never can… I obsess… and then I try to make them feel better… even though they may have just made me feel like a pile of crap.

    So here I’m going to practice some positive thinking and writing skills.

    I am a smart, intelligent woman. I have beautiful children, who although not always the least rambunctious are creative and clever and a joy to be with. I am a GREAT mother and a good wife, sister and friend.

    Alright so that was my positive writing… I’ll let you know when it makes me feel better… it’s not helping yet

    EDIT… One of my friends did this and I’m swiping it from him because it looks like fun and right now I need fun. So here goes.

  • The Beginning of the End

    I’m up this morning and that’s about all I have to say for it… I’m tired beyond belief. I say this morning but I realize it’s almost noon… I’ve been up since 7:00 and I couldn’t really tell you what I’ve done… My life is a fog.

    It seems like I would pay more attention it being the last day of the year and all… shouldn’t something spectacular happen… shouldn’t I be less like a zombie at least?

    I’m taking the kids to the toy store to spend their Christmas Booty. I know I’m begging for punishment…

    Toy store trip 005.jpg Toy store trip 007.jpg Okay the kids liked the toy store and I survived. The one here is three times the size of ours. Their money is all spent.

    Toy store trip 009.jpg I found a stuffed animal orgy… I thought this was a store for kids… naughty puppies and what is that horse doing!

    Toy store trip 020.jpg It’s raining here… Ugh.

    Later*******************We went to the bookstore where Cooper did this…

    And I found these tissues extremely ironic… 2$ for a pack of 50 cent tissues because of the saying.

    Then we went to my favorite sushi house and picked up california rolls and an unagi roll… yummy… Everytime we come we have to stop here. Two of the chef’s names are Toyota and Suzuki… that always makes me giggle…
