Can Only Do What I Can



We are finally settling more into the new house and over the weekend I think I got myself worked up about doing everything. I have decided to start taking my anti-depression medicine again because I am feeling moody alot more and very limited on patience with everyone around me. It has been difficult being a mommy after so many years of just being me. I love my little girl. Look at her, who wouldn't but I think I need to work on some more me time. Anything beyond the 10 minutes when I take a shower in the morning would be nice. Anyway, enough about that! We finally closed on the house after more drama and are now only single home owners again. We really like it and are always thinking of other things we can do in it. I have to try to take more pictures to get out to everyone especially now that we are more moved in. My husband, the man who never liked working outdoors or with his hands all of the sudden is watering the yard and making the garage his own. Who knew! Enjoy the pretty girl pictures - she is now 5 months old!

Just come up here one day for the day to spend it with me! I need to get out because if i keep staying in this place at night, im going to be able to supply enough water (because of tears) to a third world country! Man being alone was so much easier before dating somebody! UGH! Anyway, my niece looks so cute in that dress! I love you and I will see you soon!

You're absolutely right. There is only so much you can do before you drive yourself and those around you completely nuts! People like us often see life as a race, usually against ourselves. We try to do everything ourselves because it really bothers us if something doesn't get done. We have to learn that we do not and cannot control everything. I have had to face this in my own life, especially at work.

My advice is to learn to let things go. List the things that must be handled and make sure everyone shares the load. As for everything else pace yourself. It's tough at first because the people around you get used to things just 'magically' being handled. Show them where the magic really comes from!

Your bro
