Shifting my perspective
I worry. I worry about my bank account and my weight and my future. I worry that I am on the wrong track. I worry about gas prices and war and skin cancer. I worry about my lack of health insurance. I worry that I am never going to have the opportunities that I hope for. I worry about the fact that I am building nary a family nor a resume nor a nest egg.
But then I remember that everyone in my family is safe and healthy. I have been given the opportunity to chase a dream – something that not everyone has. I spend my free time going on walks with two working legs, and cooking delicious food, and thinking big, luxurious thoughts. Somehow, every month, I am able to pay my bills (almost) on time. I have a lot of shoes and a lot of clothes and a whole lot of washcloths. And I have a hope and a future.
So guess what, Tuesday? You can’t get me down.
I am back from illustrious Overland Park, KS, where I spent Memorial Day weekend. Currently, there is a lot to worry about. And there is a lot to be thankful for.

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!!!
The boys are adorable too.
But YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL!!
Funny…I spent last night worrying about a bunch of that too.
And I don’t mean haha funny. Stress sucks poo.
Glad you aren’t letting your Tuesday get to you….mind is kicking my ass.
Glad you have a proper perspective. Family does that doesn’t it.
I wish I was back in OP! I’ve got family that lives there too. I actually worked at a Wolfe Camera in Overland Park for a year before I was a teacher. Man, I haven’t thought about that in awhile.
Good times.
your nephew is almost as cute as mine :)
*Also, your sisters and Hannah and Ashley are lovely too. I only saw the picture of you and the boys the first time I loaded your blog. Didn’t want anyone to think that I was ignoring them on purpose. :)
