Last night I found myself laying in bed and being upset. I usually can hide my hurt behind humor and a smile. Yet these last few weeks it has become tougher. I do not want it to seem like I am saying poor me- cause I am not. I know for a fact that many of my friends here- at the end of this LONG deployment are feeling just like I am...but I can only speak for myself:)
So- while all these negative yucky thoughts were in my mind- I made a choice. I made a choice to think of all the positive things that I have. I made a choice of thinking of the things that make me smile. Some may be obvious- while others may seem strange- they all make me smile... so here is what I doodled:)
*hailee*carter*10 yrs of marriage*daily walks* georgeann*cyprus*my house* dancing with brooms*B&B*scotland*katie*my parents* skinny jeans*rain boots* sheshe* another safe return*mahany's*england*blogging*church*ireland*walking with l'chelle*colored pens*graduation*hangar doors opening*3 hawks & a hooker*holls-amber-ande (in no particular order)*the band LIVE*softball*yankee fall scented candles*wisconsin*momma bears (patti)*diet coke*cucumber on my sandwiches*winter*snow*brothers&sisters (the show)*evening time*making hais lunch*nap time for lil man*paying off bills!
There are clearly many more things that make me smile but these are just a few! I think that concentrating on the positive and realizing how truly blessed I am... makes all the difference in the world
