Women Changing Their World

I did make it to the "fake" beach on Tuesday. It was actually very peaceful. The sun played peek-a-boo with the clouds which kept everything cool and breezy. Yesterday I slept half of the day. Wow! Some vacation this is turning out to be! Tomorrow I have to attend meetings for half the day, so I guess today is officially my last day of time off. What a bummer. I could really use about 2 weeks. Life is cruel, then you die or you make faces like this.

I wanted to go to the state park and lie on the fake beach. I was going to pretend I was at the real beach in Florida. Unfortunately, the sun is not out today. It's cloudy...that pisses me off. I'm trying to enjoy my time off of work but mother nature is just not cooperating. I cleaned house already. The grass needs cutting but I don't feel like getting all stinky and dirty. What am I going to do? BORED and BROKE!!! Maybe I should get in my car and drive 5 hours to the beach and come home when the sun goes down. The only problem with that idea is that I would fall asleep behind the wheel on the way home. Suggestions are welcomed and donations accepted.

Well, I guess everyone thought I fell off the face of the earth. It feels like it sometimes. I've had a lot of personal issues to combat lately and I guess I just disconnected from everything and everyone. I want to reach out again to the land of blogville and catch up on what's been happening. I'm not sure how great these next few posts will be, I think I ' ve lost my touch (as if I ever had one!). I saw this poster today and wanted to share with you all. I think it sums up what I've been feeling like lately. I hope no one else has had it this hard lately. I realize it's time to toughin up my "shell" and take life by the "yolk". I know life can be sunny-side up again if I just get to crackin !

May her thoughtfulness not go unmentioned? For she cares in so many ways She works hard to seek perfection In her home every day She never takes time for herself For she is to busy caring for those in need Nurturing and comforting her children And taking care of her responsibilities She keeps a tidy house, cooking and cleaning Tending to every day chores She has many roles she plays So she never has time to get bored.... She is a doctor when her children fall ill Pacing back and forth with concern Taking temperatures and serving pills.... All things she quickly learns... She is a teacher in the evenings Helping her children with their lessons In between cooking dinner And listening to their confessions.... A mother kisses away boo boo"s And chases away fears She is a shoulder to cry on And in many hearts is held dear A mother gives so much And takes so little Never asking for anything in return She has a love that is unconditional From Mothers ways.....let us learn.... Happy Mothe...
