Oh Crap! – Musings of an Unperfect Mommy

I Think I’m Cold Blooded

March 25, 2013

It has been cold here the last several days – spring appears to be hiding in my neck of the woods and I cannot seem to get warm. It’s probably my darned thyroid (that I’m on meds for), but I’m thinking…maybe I’m cold-blooded in reality. You know, like an iguana or a kimodo dragon. And since there is no sun there’s little chance of getting warmed up so I just slllooooowwww down. Like today – I napped for an hour this afternoon and that is not like me at all. It could be that I was up at 4am and couldn’t go back to sleep. The most likely culprit? That darned time change – UGH. I wish we could just stay on standard time year round. It was good for the world for millenia and I say it’s good enough NOW. Well, at least it’s going to get warmer starting Wednesday – I can only hope.

I Like Who I Am

March 12, 2013

Wait – did I really just say that??!! Yes, yes, I believe I did. Yes. And it only took 50 years to say it! Well, okay – maybe 40 – but still…you get what I am talking about.

I was chatting with Matt the other night and those words popped out and I was sincere and truly believed them for the first time in my life. You see all my life I have wanted to be anyone other than me. Even trying to be like other people so they’d like me. Or I could be like them because I hated myself so much. But it never worked and never will. I had to finally come to accept me as I am – God does. I thought about that fact weeks ago – God loves me unconditionally just as I am. Not to say there isn’t room for improvement but together we’re working on it. But who I am – the essence of me – he loves me and I should love myself because He does. It was an incredible revelation to say it out loud – I like who I am – and I kept saying it my head for a full two days afterwards – I like who I am. There’s no one I’d rather be than me. :-)
