Well, dear friend, I’m so glad we crossed paths just over a year ago and are sharing this exciting and challenging journey! We will make it!

You definitely got me thinking about what makes me smile lately – coming home to a a big hello meow from Kitty and Sophie (my lab) howling and snorting at the same time with a ball in her mouth! Seeing the first Robin of the Spring. Walking late at night when the full moon lights my way. Having the most wonderful and caring friends! And sharing every moment I can with my mom, dad and sister Wendy! Oh, and always when I think of the bunny incident! :)

Your post made me tear up.
I’m also grateful for the friends, especially my SewMod friends. I certainly wouldn’t have made it through this last year with out you fabulous ladies either. It’s been a sucky year for you two, and several others in our group, but we’ll all get through it together, because that’s what girlfriends are for.
This too shall pass, and things will get better. You just have to believe that.

Great post, my friend! I’m sorry you are having a difficult time right now but I truly understand about all of life’s mishaps and ups and downs. It’s great to be reminded about the little things in life, such as great friends, that help get us through. So glad to have you as one of my BFF’s :)

Oh, Lorrie, I’m so sorry you and Paige are having a rough time. It took me two years after my divorce before I finally realized I felt like ‘me’ again. I know it hurts. Sometimes it seems like the world is hell bent on knocking you down every time you try to pick yourself up, but keep trying…I promise you’ll find your way.

Go for walks, EVERYDAY, no matter how you feel. Walk by yourself, if you can. Force yourself to notice all the life going on around you. It always amazed me how dead I felt inside, but yet the squirrels were still playing chase, the flowers were still blooming, the birds were still chirping, and the kids were still laughing, running and playing.

I promise it will all get better, but it will take alot of time and alot of healing.
Hugs,
Kelly

I hope you find comfort today, Lorrie. I think we’ve all had the sleepless nights for various reasons…please take comfort in knowing that others care and keep you in their thoughts and prayers. Without typing my own unending ‘random thoughts’ list….I’m sure I could go on and on…my favorite one these days is how my day brightens when my little granddaughters come through the door…I hear their chatter outside, then their footsteps and finally see those ‘always happy’ little faces…and I know I am blessed :-)
