I’m so happy for you. I started back on my meds as well. 8 days until my mom’s 2 years of passing. Last week when so many people died in Fort Hood, Texas I could not stop crying. I kept remembering when my own parents were told of my brothers death (drinking and driving) and just remembering my moms reaction and how we felt… feel still. Or when my aunt and uncle were called because my cousin fell 45 feet to his death while on the job. We have lost many over the years. That is the cost of a large family. It hurts like hell but the love….. it can’t be replaced or regretted. So I’m happy that you are opening your heart again… it’s worth the love you will have. It’s worth the risk of the pain that may come… even if we have to shed tears and get back on meds to adjust…. it’s worth it.

That irritable-old-man-tree-slipper-shuffle image keeps popping into my head randomly. I love it. That is the kind of sentence I’d frame on my wall if I’d come up with it!

Mrs. Chicken, you have changed so much since I first started reading your blog. believe in the saying that we learn from our mistakes and bad choices. I also believe that our true self is revealed by how we respond to our mistakes and bad choices.

Some people bluster through life without a care or concern for others or themselves and adding insult and injury upon everyone around them. Other people take a look at their life and the impact they have on others and recognize that something needs to change and many of those people admit that who needs to change is themsleves. These people are the ones that allow themselves to grow.

My how you have grown Mrs. Chicken! I am so proud of you.

Motherhood brought out the anger and the ugly in me too. Now it’s manifesting itself physically (back problems), so I need to go back to self-care and stress management.

I love your writing.
