Okay, I have had a couple of real crappy days. I'm super stressed with getting packed and moved, I have issues going on with my ex (am realizing that will always be the case), and the worst ... I just feel like I've been a real sucker as a mother and wife lately! FUN!
But on top of it, my court stuff with my uncle came to a close on Monday. I was asked to speak at the sentencing and was totally unprepared ... but managed to make some sense out of my feelings.
So - needless to say ... sometimes we have "one of those days" but this feel more like "one of those weeks."
Well, I just arrived from dropping Brax off to his daddy for the weekend and there was a BIG package in our mailbox :) Who doesn't love packages? However, I didn't order anything and I didn't think David had either. So, I figured it was for our downstairs neighbor.
Guess what though? It wasn't. It WAS for me! Yay! I had NO idea who it was from though. Weird.
I opened it up and it was an adorable embroidered pillow from none other than my sweet cousin, Joce! I love her!
I don't know how she seemed to send it at the exact appropriate time ... but it was so thoughtful and considerate of her. Seriously.
THANK YOU JOCELYN! I LOVE YOUR GUTS! What little guts you have. :) Thanks, thanks, thanks. You totally made my day/week better. So dang thoughtful of you!
I will get a picture of it posted as soon as I can find my dang cord in all of this moving mess.

well I wasn't expecting this when I opened your blog!! I hope you love it!!! I'm sorry things have been frustrating for you. But there will be a light at the end of the tunnel.
ReplyDeleteI hope the girl sent a little letter with the pillow. I'm sorry I wasn't at the hearing. I had a funeral and with my anxieties and all, I just couldn't, I hope you don't hate me!! I know you did awesome, and what you said was perfect. I heard all about it over and over again and it just gave me the chills!! You are awesome, and you seriously served us all so well and I'm so proud of you. THANK YOU!! Love you to death, seriously I do. Dont feel like you aren't a good wife and mother. You have important things going on right now, and hormones are crazy on top of that. Just take a deep breath and relax. maybe take a sec and write david a love note!! And get the kids just a cheap treat so they know you are thinking of them. Go get a frosty or something!! Take care my dear. YOU ROCK!!
