Life Is Still Beautiful

Happy Wednesday!!

We are halfway through the last week of March!! This is year is flying by, that's for sure. I am so ready for the warm weather to stick around. North Carolina still cannot make up her mind.

Today...was kind of a hard day for me. I have those sometimes. Lately it seems like a lot. It may have something to do with lack of sleep, peri menopause, or missing my Mama. You never get too old to not need your mother; and today I sure could have used her ear.

Even though I miss Mama, I'm losing sleep and my body seems like it is mad at me; life is still beautiful. When I got home from work this afternoon I went straight to bed. Did not tell the hubs hello like usual. I did inform him that I had a rough day and I wanted to be left alone. And, he did. I needed that time. I had a good cry, texted a dear friend and a special young lady that noticed I was struggling today, let me know that she loved me.

Those are priceless moments to me. Those moments me more to me then anything. Life get hard. Getting older isn't for sissies that is a fact. I have always been able to keep my emotions in and control how people see me. Head down and get the job down. I have been very good at taking care of my people and those that I work for. The fixer, the counselor, nurse, therapist, all the things. Then the meltdown happens....Ms. Dawn had hers today. But, life is still beautiful.

I have my health, a place to lay my head, a job and people I work with that I really love (even though I try to make them think I don't, LOL). A few real friends that love me despite myself at times. (I can be a lot to handle) Family that loves me unconditionally. It's OK to have the meltdown. I would have preferred not to have had it at work today but, it is what it is. Life is overwhelming. It changes everyday. I have to remember this is just another phase of life I am walking through not the destination.

So, yes Life Is Still Beautiful.

Have a Fabulous week!
