Trying to regain my equilibrium

[petmoosie]

I wasn't doing too well today, especially when I read rose1thorn 's journal.

One trouble-maker at lunch didn't have a lunch. No wonder he was trouble. I feel bad for the kid. I know that the school will give a free cheese sandwich no matter how poor or irresponsible your parents are. Of course, that cheese sandwich is followed up by a home visit from the social worker, maybe he didn't want to risk that.

5 drinks were spilled. A brand-new record (for me, at least).

Emily wasn't doing her work at school. She says that she couldn't do it because there were only yellow and red crayons at her table. Of course, she could go to the other table and trade for other colors. It has to do with not solving her own problems. So she had to bring home her work and do it at home with her homework.

The contractors had to work late tonight to get finished.

Then I ran the water from the sink straight onto the counter and then all over the floor. That was actually funny (mostly because T came home in the middle of the mess). Finally, I got into a better mood.

Didn't mean to upset you with my post. I am sorry about that. This was stuff that has been bothering me for quite some time and this is the first time I feel ready to put a plan into action to make some changes.

I hope this year brings you peace and fulfillment. *hugs*

It didn't upset me, per se. It just caused me to sum up some trends in my life and, well, throw up my hands in defeat.

Then I wrote my response and reread it. I want to encourage you, not just complain about where I am and what direction I am on.

It's a liveJournal thing

I read your entry and decided to make a reply that was all about me. That's all.

I don't mind that you responded all about you. I wrote an entry that summed up the recent trends in my life and it caused you to sum up the recent trends in your life. I don't think that's a bad thing.
