just a few words
i wrote a journal entry tonight that was over 2,200 words. nobody needs to hash through that ever, but i needed it for me… to summarize a brutal day… to move forward… to carry on… ya know… all that jazz.
here are a few key phrases:
today was brutal.
rough night with tru.
wait at the doctor’s. it was strep
i went to target. bad idea.
it was like mother duck with all the ducklings lagging behind.
“please people, be gentle with me…
i wouldn’t be here if i thought there was a better idea.
we just need to get this medicine… and get out of here.”
a screaming tantrum. minivan lady is still staring. i started laughing…
little people need me constantly.
max came and snuggled. tender mercy today.
the afternoon was a blur.
i am trying with all my might to do what is right…
i know there is a better way
stretched too thin.
Be Strong, is what the bishop tells me. Be Strong.
i will carry on, carry on, carry on.
and there was a bunch of blah in those other 2000 words.
The most important line to me:
And I may never succeed on this earth… but I’m sure gonna try.
Next time call me and I will watch your kids so you don’t have to take they with you. Please call.
