- My mom was hospitalized on Sunday night in an emergency situation. She's still in the hospital. She's been sick for a long time. Her problems are more than just physical and that is the hardest part.
-As you can imagine between this situation, the job change, and the upcoming wedding, I am slightly overwhelmed.
-By "slightly overwhelmed" I mean I'd like curl up in bed and stay there for a long while.
-I have some amazing friends and a loving partner who never gives up on me and I am truly loved. This is why I am not in bed right now.
-It's in these times, the times I feel like I want to give up, that I realize just how strong I really am. Sometimes I need a gentle reminder.

ReplyDeleteeveryone needs a good cry session. hope everything works out with your mom!
ReplyDeletei totally understand where you are coming from....God knows I do. I posted on my Facebook that people seem to tell me I am a strong woman..well sometimes it doesnt feel that way to me...although i have a strong man who has my back...what does a strong woman do when she feels weak. i wish you the best. and you are in my prayers along with your mom.
ReplyDeleteHope your mother gets better. As for you, try to take a deep breath. You can do anything but not always everything at least not all at once.
ReplyDeleteDon't forget to breathe. Stay strong.
ReplyDeleteCrying is good for you.
My condolences to you, these things are really hard to deal with sometimes but having support makes it so much easier. I hope things brighten for your mum soon!
ReplyDeleteAw! I really hope that your mom gets better soon.
ReplyDeleteI'm very sorry to hear about your mum. I know it's hard when you have to be strong for someone else, sometimes, but emotional support goes a long way.
ReplyDeleteThinking of you.

I'm new to your blog today. Just wanted to say that you will be so much stronger on the other end of the ordeal. The little problems we used to get so upset about will pale in comparison now. I hope your mom recovers quickly! Having a loving partner really helps! I know my hubby is the reason I got through a lot of difficult times.
