Days like today – or the past 3 days – are the ones the type that make it really hard to be grateful for what I have. I am 37 weeks pregnant. I have all of the regular pregnancy woes you guys have read about before. Now I also have a prolapsed hemorrhoid – and let me tell you I have already stood up from pain 5 times trying to write this unable to get comfortable sitting. We were supposed to do the “big move” to another place yesterday. Chris is sick. I am in so much pain I can barely move. The friend with the moving truck is suddenly not answering his phone when we call. We MIGHT be able to get only a 17 foot U-Haul Sunday evening for a few hours. I am beyond stressed on top of all of this pain and being 37 weeks pregnant. It’s really hard to get through these days right now. I needed today to stop and stand back and remember how to be thankful for what I have and get through this hard set of days.
When you guys are having a hard time, I want you to remember a few things:
Without the bad things in life, we wouldn’t be able to be as happy as we are on the good days of life. Everything would be mundane. We must remember the happy times as we go through life. And remember – it is still perfectly normal to have a breakdown on your bad days. I have had about 3 breakdowns these past few days, and yes, they involved eating pizza in the bathtub. And, the only thing I have accomplished is one load of dishes. And that’s okay, because I am human and I have bad days too.
Chins up, friends.
