So my last pots is gone, and I apologize if it's still in your readers. Despite having a well publicized blog, I'm actually a pretty private person, and not only that, but there is no room for self-pity here. Sitting here feeling sorry for myself is not going to make my situation any better. And I have so much to be thankful for...
My children are healthy and beautiful.
My husband loves me unconditionally, and is a truly fantastic father.
We have enough to eat.
My body is strong and sturdy and covered in the beautiful marks of motherhood.
I am capable of doing anything in the world, with the help of Google and a little determination.
I've discovered who I am spiritually and am no longer on a searching path.
We have a reliable vehicle that's almost paid for.
We have enough money to pay the bills.
My children are quick learners and do well in school.
I have four children with four vastly different interesting personalities.
We don't have any legal problems.
I'm not a drug addict or alcoholic.
I have lots of good ideas that are fun to think about, even if they're crazy and never come to fruition.
I like myself.
No matter what happens or where we end up, we'll always have each other.
You're just emotional!

Didn't read the other post, but good for you. That's a great list and a lovely reminder to appreciate what we have.
So instead of complaining that I am about to get up and go to work, I will be grateful that I have a job to go to :)
i'm trying to post this, "ahh it ain't that bad I imagine. if i have a 4th i will most likely do this. Cheers to the placenta! hah" at cinco...,but it won't take.
I didn't see your last post I don't think? but it must have been a doozie I'm guessing. Good on ya for reminding yourself that life doesn't *completely* suck (just small parts of it ;) Hang in there.
Hi! This is a great list and I wanted to send some gratitude YOUR way -- your profile is up on One Year Apart and I so appreciate your help!
