Me- I- Myself-Mine.

I have decided I am:

  • much too serious too much of the time.
  • pretty smart
  • kinda cute
  • of worth
I have come to the conclusion that :

  • I am not in charge of my husband,
  • will do my best to stop trying to fix him, and let him fail on his own.
  • will do my best to keep my opinions and feelings to myself about what I think he should be doing.
  • and I will preserve my energy for more productive things.

(I had written "more important things" but I still feel those things are important.)

I have chosen that:

  • My children should KNOW that I would do anything for them when I am able
  • My home is my refuge... and I can curl up with a book or surf online if no one wants my attention, without feeling lazy/guilty.
  • My health is important to me... and I am going to choose differently.

I am not defined by:

  • How clean my home is
  • How much money we have
  • What activities my kids are involved in
  • What kind of car I drive
  • The kind of clothes I wear

What matters to me is:

  • To find outlets that will make me happy
  • My family, regardless of the choices they all make
  • Health and happiness
  • Strength of Character

This year, my 40th year of life,

brings me to new choices....

new decisions...

and peace within.
