Sunday November 3, 2013....

    Today was a relaxing day.  I've done nothing but a couple loads of laundry.  Mostly spent the day watching Supernatural with my kids.  I love and hate that show all at the same time.  It snowed this morning.  Nothing much, but still I am not ready to be driving back and forth in it.  I'm not ready for a lot of things but especially not snow.
     I have had a lot of things going through my head today, not all of them happy, but not all of them sad either.   In my quest for happiness I think that you can't always be happy every minute of every day.  There are so many things that are getting me down.  Still though smiling seems to be a good way to get past them. 
      When a new horror begins to unfold, like my son jumping off a moving vehicle and breaking his front tooth, I take a deep breath and as I feel the stress coming on heavy , I simply remind myself that I am stronger than this.  I can get over this one, and the next one and the one after that.  After all what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, and if it kills you, well you are dead so it can't stress you out right?
       I am thankful for my friends, family, and especially my kids.   I am thankful for their love, even the teenager who doesn't say it often, and I am thankful that I had food to feed them for the weekend and a warm dry place for them to sleep.  I am thankful for the weekend even though it isn't long enough, and I'm thankful that I have a job to go to during the week. 
      I am thankful for so much more but tonight think i'll just leave with that.  Tomorrow is a new day, and hopefully new and wonderful things will happen in it.
