Venting

My Day
1. Took dog out at 4 am to pee and he took off after a cat, running through frosted grass with no shoes on at 4 am. Lovely.
2. 3 daughters decide to bath shower and run washer at the same time then yell at me when there is no hot water.
3. Finally get all kids to school and get in the shower. Shower head breaks and sends water all over the bathroom. I have to shower downstairs.
4. Daughter forgets she let dog drink lots of water and as we are cleaning up his pee, other daughter chokes on bacon and pukes all over.

I think its time for bed don't you.

long time



So when I originally started this blog I was going to be one of those people who posted every few days. I was going to have great words of wisdom to share with everyone. Well I have no wisdom and no great words. I am just muddling through this life like everyone else. But things are good, maybe even great around our house lately. I have dug myself out of another blue time, which seems to happen about every 6 months. Taking vitamins, and trying to take care of myself is helping. Having a great hubby who is always willing to talk, and who makes me talk things out when he can tell I am upset is also a huge help. Prayer, going to the temple, and looking for a deeper meaning to my life has helped. Choosing to be in my life at this time, doing what I have chosen to do has helped. But sometimes I am still in fear of the next down swing, when everything is so hard. Hoping this time I will stay happy, hoping this time I have found the answers to stay happy. We will see.

Anyway Sydnee was baptized this weekend and it was a very special day. We have wonderful supportive family, and she was so excited. I mean like counting down the days excited. What a great kid she is! Always trying to make someone laugh. Doing her baptism video (a imovie that I have made for each of the girls) reminded me of a lot of things throughout her life, the many broken bones (i think 6 is the total) the fun, and the tongue that she sticks out everytime I have a camera in my hand. She is a wonderful daughter and even though she is the kid I struggle with the most, I truly have a deep love for her.

I am so thankful to all who were there to make the day special for her. And now that I am the happy version of me I will try to post more often.
