One day at a time.. Don't bash me. THe little things keep me sane

That's great.  Just keep thinking like that and you'll feel a lot better. 

maybe that's what I need to do....Good job momma....have a great day....it's gonna be good...

sounds like you are doing the best you can and focusing on the now is the best any of us can do.

Me on the other I'm so frustrated that my dh's flight out of Iraq was canceled bc the selfish assholes that already home don't want to have to work on Thanksgiving if he doesn't get here before than, which he could have if they would stop being such slackers, I don't want to leave the computer for fear of missing my dh getting on and letting me know when he is leaving, if he has found out yet. but i did make a hot breakfast! we had waffles, toast, sausage links, and fried eggs! Hope you have a great day!

FIRST OFF GREAT JOB! second of all...Ive found that if you find little things to be thankful for it helps boost your mood too.....for instants that HORRIBLE diaper lol just be glad it wasnt all over your little one and the bed and every where lol.....be thankful that you had enough money to indulge in the pepsi, be glad you have a home to live in, or food to eat, or hell that you dont have many dishes to do. just little bits of this or that and say geez im blessed because........ fill in the blank...hell make a list...HANG IT UP and look at all your blessings that your thankful for when you start feeling  down and try to add to it each day......before you know it you will see more blessings then problems it helps i swear it and good luck! AND KEEP SMILING!!!!

You are my  inspiration today.  THANK YOU!!!!

That is a great idea. and youk now what I think our afternoon project is going to be making a "I'm thankful for" board. It will help teach my nephew to be thankful too ((my son is too young)), plus we will have fun and be occupied. Oh we are so going outside to collect leaves to deocrate it. Thak you.

If you keep that attitude, things will get better and better over time. That is the exact attitude I have been having and let me just brag for a minute (he he) and tell you what it has gotten me so you know it works!! I have been clean of drugs 10 years in January, I just had 1 year of sobriety on August 29th 2008. I live in a brand new home just built in 2001, I just ended a 11 year custody battle with a man who kidnapped my children everytime he saw them (I got full custody full placement, supervised visits for him since he is dangerous) I quit believing I had to take my clothes off for a living because I could not do anything else. I now have a teaching degree and am in school full time majoring in criminal justice. This list goes on and on!!! One day at a time really works and if you ever need advice or someone to vent to, we can talk.

My bapa used to always tell me  , "No matter what just breath ! " He said Good ,Bad, or otherwise as long as you keep breathing you will make it through and you will have beat it and won.

Some of the hardest moments of my life I have only made through because I remembered 2 words "Just Breath"

Your life is not the some of what it thrown at you , but the strenghth in how you react to that. most of all remember DO NOT let others judgments (there is always someone with an opinion your doing it wrong) decide how your living your life, at the end of the day you andswer to you , not them , was your day well enough you can sleep tonight and face it again tomarrow? then today was a GOOD day !

Keep up the good work momma.

Thats all that we can do is take it one day at a time...or one hour at a time lol...(depending on whats going on)

WOW momma. I applaud you for all you have overcome! BRAVO! I'm also in school for Law. Working towards becoming a prosecutor, to put away abusive men/women  such as my ex. I'm trying my hardest to stay positive and I'm not gonna let today get screwed up!

Mmmmm pepsi
