Today was a good, though draining, day.
I went to work first thing and worked on making my office fit me and reflect more of my personality.
I also had a couple meeting in my new role as "Staff Liaison". I love my job, very much. It is sometimes challenging, but very rewarding.
After work I went with my friend J, to her doctor's appointment. It was nice to spend time with her ..... just relaxing in the car and in the waiting room.
Then Son #3 and I went to the grocery store and bought stuff for dinner and went to A & M's. We had a lovely shrimp dish, which M made.
Nothing too exciting today ... but I'm great with no excitement.
The biggest piece of excitement was making a very tough, very draining decision about my two cats.
I will not discuss it now ...... I can't.
But I needed to simplify my life, even though it was very difficult.
Tomorrow I plan to take the day off of work ... I think.
It appears that two of the 4 bedrooms upstairs are finished ... although I have yet to investigate them and see or myself. Son #3 seem to love his, so that's good.
Tomorrow is "Ask Me Wednesday" and I'm back with my Circle time for dinner.
Son #2 is on a Mission Trip with the kids from church, cleaning up stuff that is still a problem a year later.
Today he sent me a text message informing me that he was using a jack hammer. I answered, "Sweet!!!", which, evidently was not the answer he anticipated. He asked me if I was "scared" and I said, "No .... thought it was cool.".
Score a big fat one for mom. :)
So I shall leave you on that note. I'm exhausted and still need to think about what to write about tomorrow on "Widow' s Voice" .... plus answer all of your Wednesday questions.
I also want to try to post a lot o Sand Diego picture if I can tomorrow!!
Take care, Peeps ...... see you tomorrow!

My AMW question is- with 6 kids, how did you manage to give each one individual attention? Was jealousy an on going thing or did they not even notice since that was all they knew? And finally, did you usually go to the girls events and Jim do the boys, or did you guys constantly rotate? I have a 2yr old and pregnant with my 2nd and already nervous about giving them equal and individualized attention! I know, probably sounds crazy to you after having 6! Oh, and did you do hand me downs? If so, were the younger ones ok with that? Thanks so much! -Amber
This may be a tough question - and you don't have to answer- but do you think it is normal to be scared of the death of a loved one? I am a 22yr old newly wed, my husband is the same age and healthy, but with all the stuff on the news about people dieing in car accidents or anything sudden like that, I am terrified of losing him. Its not like I call him every 5 minutes or anything, I just feel like the thought is always in the back of my mind. Am I crazy?
