Who I Am

I am just what my blog says, just another tired wife and mother.  Like most women these days, I am totally overloaded with too much to do, not enough time or energy, and at the bottom of my never-ending list of things that need time and attention.
I used to love to read, now I can't get through a book and end up putting them down half way through and never finishing it.  I am a magazine junkie, but it takes me weeks to get through those too.  I have always wanted to write, write a book, write poetry, something, so here I am.  I had another blog once on MSNspaces, but my someone decided they didn't so much like seeing what I thought in black and white, so that went away quickly.  I don't deal well with opposition and cave immediately to pressure, especially from family.  I wish I hadn't dumped it so quickly, there was some good stuff there.  But in the face of a total over-reaction, I panicked and just reacted.

Normally, I would never use the word "I" so much, but this is something I decided to do for me, a creative outlet.  Something to help me process the crap that runs through my head.  We all just want to feel like we exist, that someone cares about how we feel, think.  My writing here is for me, just for me.  If you derive some insight or pleasure out of reading it, great, if you don't, that's ok too.  I'm not writing it for you, I'm writing it for me.

That said, I would like to say that I hope not to offend anyone, hurt feelings, or bore too much.  Remember, you choose how to feel about something, I (or anyone else for that matter) cannot make you feel something.  If you are set on being offended, you will be.  If you are set on getting something out of an experience, you will.  You have a choice in everything and are responsible for your own self, your own emotional state and reactions.

I wish you all love and peace.
