I have a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach today. I haven't felt it for a while. It comes from worry.
I am worrying - it's something I used to do a great deal and lately have tried not to. I have tried to deal with situations as I can - this one I am worried about.
It comes from a Mother's heart. My children are my absolute joy - but also my worry.
I have a 2 so...1 Recommendation12 Comments -

I guess I would call it sad and frustrating instead of venting, now that I think about it - no, change that to just plain frustrating... It has only been a week and I relented yet again today. The positive is that I now have figured out why I do it, and I guess that can help me. Again, for the 100+ time, I acknowledge that I don't have control, which of course I already know....1 Recommendation11 Comments

I have dug myself into an all time low in my life. Will this be my last bottom? Have I finally reached my limit? These are the questions I am asking myself. I have thought that I have hit bottom so many times in the last nine years. I have suffered, agonized, cried and wished to die so many times I couldn't count them all if I wanted to. Yet I have somehow h...1 Recommendation10 Comments
