Yikes! Its been a long time since I posted anything. I'm adjusting to being back at work full time and I'm trying to find time for things like blogging and sleeping. Here's something I wrote at least a week ago and then forgot to post.
It's the small things people do that give me the energy to keep going. My friend that comes over every Thursday night. We make dinner together and she hangs out with me and my daughter. One night when my 2 year old was trying out underwear and peed all over the kitchen floor, this friend cleaned it up. Another friend leaves me cheery messages on my work phone. She remembers all the important or stressful days in my life and finds a way to help start those days out right. Sometimes her voice mails are the first adult voice I've heard all morning. Or my fellow Army Wife friend who announces she's coming over on a Friday night to watch movies and sleep on my couch. My family who makes me food, brings it to me, walks my dog, and hears me out. Or another Army Wife friend who hung out with me while I cooked and cleaned. Its nice to have company without expectations. I can be me. Stressed out, over worked, legs unshaven, house a mess, too tired to have intelligent conversations, can we sit together and stare at the TV?, if Jason calls I'm temporarily ditching you. Thanks everybody!
I believe that God gives us the people we need to get through hard times. I'm pretty sure that any future kids will be way more difficult than my first born. She's normally pretty easy and cute. She talks nearly as much as I do because I'd be so lonely without that. Between the two of us there is rarely any silence.
Thank God for the people in my life. All of them.
