Redacted

I bit my friend's hand in my dream this morning. Shrug. No clue. . Both of my kids had terrors tonight. They were afraid of being alone so I sang in the hallway while they took turns getting showered. They both cried missing their mom and hugged tight for a long time. . I feel sorry for them. One day they will regret not being parents to their own kids. I pray for them. . It's not going to end pretty.  15 days. . I have class in the morning. It starts at 8. It's about thirty minutes away. I'm going to be late. . The school nurse checked my kid's eyes. She sent home a double fail notice.  Sigh. Now I just have to figure out if he actually can't see or if he was too stressed to read letters. Or maybe he has dyslexia. I wish I could read his mind. . Fear isn't real.  It only exists in our minds when we think about what could potentially happen in the future. Ground yourself in the present, in the here and now. - Thoughts from the After Earth movie. . Did you as...

Honest feelings tonight. My emotions are a bit raw lately, and at the same time somewhat numb with frustration at trying to make decisions that make me second guess everything. It's overwhelming. Nobody should ever have to prepare a child for the possibility that they may never get to go home to live again. . Honesty. That would be nice.  . I feel sorry for these parents. They need Jesus. .

Being good at something doesn't always make it worth your time and energy. . If you are often miserable doing something that is good, does it necessarily mean it is not your calling? . If I weren't tired would my mind not explode? . These are the deep questions. . One of my kids threatened to run away to their mom in the middle of the night.  Sigh.  Oh yippee.

The hackles of the wolf rise at the glint of blonde. Eyes narrow, the beast rises. The hunt is on.

How could I forget how warm and heavenly flannel sheets are?

Please ignore this. It will at least let me feel like I agreed you could be rude to me. . I hate being ignored. In my opinion it is close to the height of rudeness because it is like saying the other person isn't worth acknowledging.  At least grunt when someone talks to you. . I know. We all have done it. We've all ignored someone before. True. . I'm hoping I'm learning to be better. . It hurts to be thought unworthy. . I guess if I didn't care what they thought it wouldn't bother me so much.  Hmmm. Well that stinks. . Need to remember to keep my focus on things above and not below.

Today an old man complimented my pale white skin.
