Reason number 10,340,000 why my kids are the best.


While browsing through the hardware store...

Me: (practically up off the ground) WOW!! A set of TWO cordless hammer-drills!! Man, I NEED those-- I've always WANTED one of those!! And they're on SALE...

Child Number Two: (grabbing my arm and steering me away) Now, MUM...

Wee Three: (taking the other arm) We're only LOOKING today...

Child Number One: (gleefully) Wait for MOTHER'S DAY!!!

New Beginnings.


I have my answer.

And now, New Beginnings...

I was a good person, years ago, and even though life has changed me in innumerable ways, I will remember that I am still that person inside.


I will remember what has made ME happy in days past-- how it really FELT to be happy-- and strive to put myself in places and situations where I can feel that way again.

I will listen for my own instincts, heed them, and follow them. I will trust myself.

I will be more conscious of my own needs, goals and dreams.

I will continue to teach, but not just in order to "build a career", but because I love what I do. I know that if this thought is at the forefront of my mind as I go forward, I will eventually land in the best possible situation for my girls and me.

I will strive for a stable, peaceful, positive and consistent environment, at all times, and above all else.

We all deserve nothing less.

Happy Easter.

"Good" Friday.


If anybody wants me, I'll be outside re-seeding the back lawn.

Waiting.


Blackbird
written and performed by
The Beatles

Blackbird singing in the dead of night,
Take these broken wings and learn to fly.
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.

Blackbird singing in the dead of night,
Take these sunken eyes and learn to see.
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to be free.

Blackbird fly,
blackbird fly,
Into the light of the dark black night!

Blackbird fly,
blackbird fly,
Into the light of the dark black night!

Blackbird singing in the dead of night,
Take these broken wings and learn to fly.
All your life
You were only waiting for this moment to arise.
