Why be grateful? Because though there is always a growing list of things, situations, and people to bitch about (i.e.: crappy commutes, biatches for bosses, kids always getting sick, I could go on…)… there are also so many reasons to be happy, grateful and humble. I feel like I really gotta make it clear that I don’t bitch and I don’t whine 24/7. In fact, IRL, most people think I’m pretty upbeat. I can put on a pretty smile, even when I feel like a sad lil’ cupcake. Why? Because I don’t ever want to come across as ungrateful for all that life has given me so far. Bitching is easy. Stepping outside your pity party and looking at the bigger picture is hard.
So in saying that, maybe I should delete my last post? LOL! I re-read and holy mama- talk about feeling sorry for yourself! Nevermind that I wrote it almost 2 months ago. I have a bad little habit of doing that. Dropping a bomb of a mood killer and then disappearing for a long time. Again- SCORPIO THING. In fact, I’ve been contemplating not only deleting this site and starting over- but getting a new domain entirely. I feel like I really need that fresh start. My attitude needs an adjustment for sure! I think I’m getting there though. I’ve been trying really hard not to bitch to family/friends about TDWSH. Don’t get me wrong, she is still a little pill to work for, she is still a diva with unrealistic expectations, but with the economy the way it is now- I realize there is NO room for complaining, I’m lucky to have a job!
So here I am. I haven’t posted photos of the boys in aaaages. They are so big now (Q will be 2 years old in just a couple weeks and G is 6 months)! My Q-man is really doing well with the speech therapy and the SLP is very happy with his progress. He talks so much more now and he’s asking questions and naming things all the time. Lil’ G is really starting to get himself a little personality. He’s just cute as hell, I must say. We have some super cute pics from Halloween. They were pirates! I’ll have to work on that (adds to AR list). I’ve also joined WW at work- so the neverending battle with weight loss ensues. I’ve lost almost 6 lbs. so far (big whoop, but hey- give me a break, I’m barely in week 3). Hell, it has been painfully slow, but I have to remember that it took a buttload of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups and Doritos during my pregnancies to get this mambo. I haven’t had a PBC in over 3 weeks. Do you know those suckers have 4 points for one little cup? I nearly cried when I read that. I LOVE Reese’s. That along with Doritos and popcorn = totally my kryptonite. Boy… I’m just all over the map with this post huh? I think that’s my cue for exit. More later!
