getting through life w/o having a fit!


My prayers are being answered. I am not so sad as I was last Saturday. I am taking my time & enjoying another lovely Spring day! It rains often here so I need to enjoy the weather while I can.

I have to admit that I wanted to have another fit recently. I didn't but my husband did. He totally spilled some chocolate concoction all over the sink shelf where there were many items that had to be cleaned & basically the whole shelf was torn apart. After throwing something & getting things cleaned up(not to mention all the cussing) we ended up realizing that maybe the shelf needed cleaning anyhow. I did my best to help but sometimes I just get in the way! Maybe the fact that it was Easter & we wanted to enjoy the day w/o incident, it seemed a bit more frustrating!

I am just grateful that every day is a new day & I just have to make the most of each day. Who knows what tomorrow will bring. I have today. I am excited to just have a few moments of serenity. I know sometimes my expectations get the best of me. I have to change that because I will just be crazy & upset. I know that I can't always have my way. I am not going to expect anything today.

I hope I am not repeating myself too much. Maybe I NEED to remind myself over & over what I need to remember each day to possibly make the day more pleasant.

Nice post Hoot, i find it hard to stay in the moment all the time, it takes practice. My mind can jump forward and backwards but when I stay in the moment im calmer. Expectations can be tricky and usually lead to disappointment. Its nice to bend and sway with the world.x
