What am I thinking about? Anything, really, that I feel I need to improve, modify, or completely eliminate to be the best me I can be.
I've started a new blog. I would appreciate encouragement and support. The months of March and April have been more than a change of season for our family. We've moved from a climate that was generally foggy and chilly to a warm, muggy locale. We've got a new home that we're finally getting accustomed to. The biggest change is yet to come...the day Daddy's boat goes out for a while.
In order for me to support the kids and coach them through this adjustment, I need to be ready to tackle it head-on for myself. I've got to have things in place that will allow me to wallow, be angry, be afraid, and not know what to do - without the kids catching the brunt of it.
I've gotten systems going in the house where I'm able to keep the clutter under control. I just realized, though, that there's one room I HAVE to get tackled in the next day or 2 because I have company coming on Saturday. The room is dubbed The Man Cave because it's where the computer and extra TV are and Stuart can be found there about 70% of the day. *eye roll* It's been our catch-all for the boxes and general crap that we had stored in the garage.
I've got to figure out a menu that's appropriate for a mommy and her little guys. I've always cooked for a crew, so it'll take some adjusting. I've got to get some priorities straight with my health and taking care of myself.
I've done a lot of looking at relationships and trying to eliminate or reduce contact with people that aren't healthy for me. I've done a darned good job at that in the last year. Really. I'm proud of myself for that. I think that I've got some hard work ahead of me still, but I know I can do it.
I can do anything with prayer, support, and love. I have to remember that.
