Santa's cap and other observations
Hi all... I just noticed the Santa's cap on the homepage of Blogspot; cute, cute. Am I slow or what? So glad it's Friday; so glad we have the tree up and though it is a small, gangly, asymmetrical tree, a lot of its flaws are hidden when the lights are on...exactly opposite to me (i.e., of lot of my flaws are hidden when the lights are off!). There must be a lesson in that profound statement somewhere.... :) I'm hoping all who take the time to read this also have a safe, happy, stress-free, argument-free, hope-filled, wish-come-true Christmas.
I've been in a rather cranky mood the past couple of days, fussing, fuming, muttering under my breath about being let down, looking for something to complain about type of mind set since Wednesday. Gripe, gripe, gripe. To what end? All it does is create an invisible black cloud over my head and cause people to avoid talking to me... I've changed my mind set, since about 4:30 yesterday afternoon, and am trying/vowing to look on the brighter side. I can't control circumstances (though I might like to), but I can control how I react. That has been a hard concept for me to grasp. Someone like Denise, much younger than I, has had the maturity and wisdom to embrace that reality and not allow herself to get caught up in the drama for the most part. Denise, I salute you, I admire you, and think that you are a wonderful wife and mother; your husband is lucky to have you, your children have received a great advantage in life with you as their mother.
I salute my other friends on here as well. Thank you for taking the time to read and comment on my rather self-absorbed blog. I appreciate it.
