There are days when I feel like life sucks but I will get through each day step by step… some days I actually feel like I’m doing well at moving forward and doing what needs to be done for my boys and then there are days like today. Where I toss and turn, wake up tired and feel like I’m walking through quick sand all day knowing that instead of looking forward to getting off work at 5pm my day won’t end until both boys are in bed. Then wash.Rinse. And Repeat.

BJ tells meContinueContinue reading “The Wonderful 3’s”

The Hubter and I sang him happy birthday and he ate two cupcakes while enjoying the all too infrequent family time with just usContinueContinue reading “My Birthday wish”
It’s that time of year…
It’s that time of year, a time to thank God for another year, to celebrate BJ’s birthday and celebrate how far he’s come. I’ve been trying for the past couple of weeks to figure out why I’ve been feeling so…off. Not sad not happy just a little off kilter.
