This morning all I wanted to do was crawl back into bed after taking my daughters to school. But my 10 year old has a little assembly her class is singing in. Being the mom of 7 children, she being the last, I have attended hundreds of assemblies, been a roommom, been on I don't know how many field trips, etc, etc. Anyway I CHOOSE this morning to get ready and to go to my daughters assembly. Will it affect the rest of her life if I don't go?? Probably not, but the little choices we make in life do add up. I am choosing to be there for my children's moments, big or small. When asking my husband why we couldn't work things out, he responded it was just too much work. This from a workaholic. So today I choose to be there for the others in my life. What are you choosing????

theatre and I are there already. I'm having a very berry tea with crackers, cheese and cherry tomatoes and she's having a joint with some beer and we're both on really comfy recliners on thick pile carpet. we need some help with the decor if anyone is around??

I'm trying to exercise daily. I was doing fairly well until I sprained my ankle 2 weeks ago but now I'm getting back on the horse. Today I walked over a mile with my arm weights that are about 22lbs total. I was out of shape and it was hard on my arms. I also did my 30 situps. I'm also going to drink a lot of water and try to eat healthy. I do tend to have a sweet tooth but I'm cutting...
I am choosing to move forward in life, happy and independent.
I am glad you are choosing to go today.. you'll be glad you did. It will be so much funnier than lying in bed.
Today I choose to give to others too.... but I will make sure there is enough left over for me too... because I need to take care of me too.
My x says he was tired of giving what was required of him in a relationship!!!
Life gives back what you put into it, he will be the one out in the cold because he couldn't be bothered doing anything for anyone else.
Kids have very long memories... they'll know who was there for them, and love you for it later on.
1) I CHOSE to stand up to my H this morning & told him that the emotional & mental abuse HAS TO STOP!~! I am NOT going to tolerate it any longer.
2) I CHOSE to tell my H that a marriage is a "WE" life & it is NOT going to be HIS WAY OR NO WAY, if he can't accept that, I'm sorry.
3) I choose to accept that if my H does not want to try to work things out, we will divorce. I will walk away, sad & heartbroken, but also with the dignity & self-respect knowing that I have tried my best & it just wasn't meant to be.
4) I am choosing to persue an Associates Degree in Medical Transcription from Kaplan University.(against my H's wishes). I won't be starting until my health issues are in check, but I WILL GET THAT DEGREE:)
For me---I have had enough of the "oh poor pitiful me". Nothing but blue skies from this day forward.
And if you think that this one small thing won't make a difference to your daughter, it will surprise you in the future when she brings it up during a casual conversation.
i haven't chosen yet for today.... i'll get back to you.
I will choose to not gripe today. P~~~~~~~~~
On a more serious note, I am digging the positivity....roll with it.
We have to focus on ourselves and making our days brighter. Find that one thing today that will make you smile and carry that till tomorrow when you find that next thing.
Always remember that today will be better than yesterday.
