Today is another new beginning...as I'm reminded that tomorrow will never come :) How often do we say "Well...tomorrow I will do better." Better as a mom, wife, friend, encourager,at eating and exercising. Isn't it our very deepest longing....just to be "better". Well...I'm happy to announce that God loves me and YOU just the way we are. Did you know that there is NOTHING we can do to make God love us "better".
Life is Good because of God! Thumbs up!!!

Better
Your prayers have been helpful. I'm finally feeling a bit revived. My monthly friend decided to visit and wiped me out yesterday. I slept for 3 hours in the middle of the day- ahhhh...it was a yummy nap! I asked to not go back to work until this next Monday which I'm very relieved about. I can't remember another time in my life when so many stresses came crashing down all at once. Many of you have been worried about me and I know you love me. Thank you.Thank you. Thank you. I wish I could make more sense of myself...but I can't. Thank you for loving me right where I am. I am very, very, very bad about admitting when I'm getting maxed out until finally the volcano just erupted. It's NO ONE's fault for not seeing it coming. I'm just taking it one day at a time and breathing deep breaths again. The problem with me is that I can stay afloat and appear to be just fine...why? because I begin to tune out the big things around me, the kid's fighting and not obeying. I've decided to slow down majorly! Majorly! I'm planning to mass organize things in my home, would love to paint the living room before Christmas, and shampoo the carpets.

Kara, I'm so glad you are feeling better. You have been through a lot lately and it may take awhile to get totally back to feeling like you'd like to feel.
Please go easy on yourself. You have many people relying on you to keep things going. Just doing the mom thing alone takes so much work - let alone the wife, friend, daughter, etc. reponsibilites. Add in a very busy time of year and yikes!!! Stress overload.
Thanks for sharing and again, so glad you are feeling better. ~Beth
