Green Room - Week 8 - Day 1

 If there is one lesson from this mini season (so far), it's that "sometimes life happens" and we need to make the best of it. 

It's not disappointing to anyone else. Or, if it is, clearly they need to reassess their own priorities.  ;) 

It can still be a bummer... suck... be annoying if you are the one directly experiencing it. Or were just hoping for more.  I certainly know that people were hoping for more out of ME this time around. I definitely was.  But I hope that what you are getting is still enjoyable. 

That's kind of like every other aspect of life. There are a lot of things completely out of your control.... there are one or two things that are, as difficult as it is to believe, out of MY control.... (for now).  But we find a way to make the best of it.

One of my closest friends lost everything in Hurricane Katrina and lived with my husband and me for nine months. It was extremely hard and we decided we'd never do it again. My husband actually offered to have my mom live with us when my dad died, and thankfully she didn't want to. It's hard to have other people around even when they are kind and helpful and you love them because you can never completely relax and always have to be on your best behavior. Hang in there! *HUGS*

Thank you! :) My husband did also take in a friend of his once, back when we were living in a one-bedroom apartment, and she ended up staying with us for close to a year. I try to put things in perspective, because now we're in a three-bedroom house so at least there's space to spread out.

But darn it I wanna be able to walk around the house in my underwear again!
