I have given myself permission to STOP when time is up and not freak out. God has been slowly, and sometimes heartily, sanding those rough edges off me.

It's an all-out unstoppable bloat, I tell you. It's really a major bummer in the life cycle of women. Hormones screw you up as a teen and as they wane from our bodies, bam, they screw you up again. Sigh. I haven't even mentioned the osteoporosis that makes us all an inch shorter.

Well, a series of events lead one of my friends to rear end a car that was stopped dead in the middle of the interstate exit ramp with no lights on. (The driver was standing outside of his car waving his arms instead of turning on the hazard lights.) So, we call the cops, and there ended up being drugs in the back of the guy's car. So... luck would have it that in the process of wrecking two cars, we also got a drug dealer arrested. We all stood on the side of the road singing "Bad girls, bad girls, watcha gonna do..." Good times.The Hokansonshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03747254756938184906noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3247777850930342762.post-2806555431244892942010-12-10T13:55:46.657-06:002010-12-10T13:55:46.657-06:00Their dog died.

Even tiny spiders. I think they are all plotting against me, just me, no one else. (Yes, I am that self-involved when it comes to spiders.) Along that same line, any sort of cobweb or spider web or dust bunny getting stuck to my hand just freaks me out, so much so that I fear my hands going near anything that could contain these things. <br /><br />Also, the moaning in his sleep thing? That's gotta be scary. He needs to wake up and face those dreams or something.SJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07066225688489452644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3247777850930342762.post-36696131846689937262010-10-29T09:09:00.686-05:002010-10-29T09:09:00.686-05:00Haha!

Therefore, it is not too hard to imagine how much more pain the situation you faced would have given us. It may be a time of sorrow for you, but now you are blessed with a full and beautiful family. Perhaps this tragic loss has served to make you stronger as a mothe, as well as a catalyst to appreciate all the gifts you have in your life now. I extend to you my condolences and best wishes for the future. I am certain Wilder would never want to see his mother suffer like this, but rather use his memory and the hopes you had for his life to inspire you to succeed and rejoice in the path you forge with your family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3247777850930342762.post-23491426019938334482010-09-25T07:59:07.639-05:002010-09-25T07:59:07.639-05:00Have you read the Miss Julia series of books by An...Have you read the Miss Julia series of books by Ann B.
