"Not having the best day, today..."

Friday, July 3, 2009 | A Rambling story

Well the 4th Of July is tomorrow! Let me tell you what, the little town I live in had a no firework law for 20years. They decided this year they would allow fireworks in the town again, and it is MAADDDNNEESS out there! LOL, I am happy for the kids around that get to do them, it would stink growing up without ever getting to shoot off fireworks.. or having to drive to another town to do it! 

 So if you read my last journal you will find my GI decided to retire and they didn't even send a letter, so the first I found out was when my prescription wasn't getting filled.  It was nerve wracking. I got pretty emotional cried, and then boom Colitis Flare. I am tired of doing that to myself.  So I am gonna breath slow and deep and catch my breath.  Each day I want to say 5 good things about the day when I feel myself getting down. Never know might end up with more. Somewhere in my life I switched from being optimistic to pesimistic, never even noticed it switched till one day I got up and was like, I can't stand being around myself. I know when someone is down alot it gets irritating, or you just want to shake them and say be thankful for your life!!! Well that is today for me, I am shaking and I told myself be thankful.  Lately so many people have been passing away, it is truely sad, I know they are in a better place.  So anyone reading this, we are so lucky to be alive, so lucky to have each day with the people we love.  So thankful, God has given us, this day to shine, and be thankful for.  Bad or good, wear a smile, and let your heart be happy!!!

    Thanks for the boost of optimism. It is so easy to get depressed when you don't feel well. I hope you got your meds. Have a great 4th!
