Thoughts of an Angel Mommy, Chapter Five

  When life gives you white hairs, have fun because it’s a sign of wisdom… That’s me trying to make a joke, I have no lemons right now for lemonade. What I am doing is trying my best to get through each day and take what life gives me and make the most of it. Remember your self-care and take real time for yourself each day, because that feeling of burnout, is real. PS- What I said about wisdom is true, by the way. Enjoying learning and growing as a person throughout all the seasons of life.

  I did a thing. Featuring a view of my new haircut with the multi colors of reds and golden blonde. Think I’ll have some fun this summer.

  Have you ever thanked yourself before? I do it now from time to time. I felt like a letter to myself could be nice to read in the future. Dear Evelyn, Thank you for embracing life months ago, and living in the moment. I admire your strength, compassion, your positivity, hope, love, and peace. All the work you've done has gotten me here, and continuing to teach me. 'Future' Evelyn thanks you too. Keep up the great work, so you may worry less about what was, what could be, and enjoy what is. Sincerely and with love, 'Present' Evelyn

Today's appointment was not what I expected, I plan to give things more time, as who I met with today, gets to know me. I may continue to search for another practice, unsure. Suggestions welcome for psychiatry. I was told today that I am quite articulate, suppose I'll take that as a compliment.

 February 23rd, 2023, video from my Facebook Page, Holding Onto Hope . Click here to see the original Facebook post .  " Today has me feeling so many emotions. So after I arrived home I decided to chat a little bit about what’s been on my mind and my heart. About 8 or so minutes, so if you watch, hang in there, I appreciate your taking a moment out of your day to listen and hopefully take some of what I talked about, to heart. Being there for others, is such a gift. I’ve talked about being there for yourself of course, however have you ever considered that helping another, also helps yourself?! It feels true for myself at least. If you feel moved to do so, I would love to hear how you were able to help another person today. As always, take care of yourself and I hope this day is kind to you. Namaste. "

Grief counseling, haircut, energy work, thrift-store browsing, and seeing friends at the PTA meeting. Today was exactly what my heart needed. Introducing this more enlightened, open hearted, full of hope and love, spiritual, more mentally and emotionally stable; me. 😌💚 Its been quite the week of realizations and growth. Looking forward to what this part of my life blossoms into. Finding the peace with acceptance, we have no idea what awaits us in the future, we learn from the past, and make the most of our moments that help shape the future. Remember to be kind to yourself. Much love and thanks to everyone who’s been there for me, and my family, while I walk this unknown path, and guide myself through the fog to a clear horizon. 💗

Today… It wasn't an easy morning, the past few years has been hard on my family. Other typical daily challenges make everything feel much harder than it needs to be. A look back in time… Yesterday… It felt like a bitter-sweet day.  Celebrating my husband's birthday, the joyful moments. Gritting my teeth through the pain my body and ankle gives me. Unless you know me or have been around me during the difficult moments, you may never realize how heartbreaking this degeneration has been for me.  Why is my body falling apart?  Why can't answers be found?  The waiting has been hard on my heart.   Wearing my new-to-me shrug / sweater. Channeling my inner dude. Anyone ever watch the movie, The Big Lebowski?  I feel so very tired and a little bit overwhelmed these days. Procrastination is frustrating, as I find it challenging to move forward with responsibilities when so much unknown still lies ahead.  I find myself taking more photos these days. I try to reme...
