Yes, it's a select group of women that belong here with me. Oh sure, you don't think this would be you, but you would be wrong about that.
And to think you were going for Best Mother and Wife of the Year. You toiled long hours cleaning your home to spotless perfection only to have it messed up by your ungrateful kids. The nerve. You slaved over a hot meal only to hear, "I don't like that", or "I'm having cereal"!
You spend your day with your endless checklist in your mind's eye, giving yourself a tiny checkmark next to the things that you are able to accomplish as you work your full time paying job. To no avail, there is always something that you didn't do. Oh, you wanted to get it all done, there just isn't enough day and certainly not enough you.
There are no 'thank you's' that come with this award. Just a quick kick in the booty and a helping of 'why didn't you do this?'
Bad Mothers and Wives, unite! Our claim to glory will be "You never did anything and you were never there for me."

Oooo, Oooooo. I'm totally in the running for this!!!! I could probably be nominated by 3 different people (not Hayden, he's 2.) You've been visiting my home, haven't you... you sneaky lady!
I guess you have had a really bad day. Sorry. We pray for you and love you. I don't know what else to say. Please let past things be past and forget. Don't despond, don't give up, but just be yourself, the self that is highest and best. Just live everyday in a sensible way and then leave to God all the rest.

I love you, Charmen!

I hope things will look up soon. I hate to see you down and out. I think we all have moments when things seem to not be good enough. Just know I love ya. Like Dory from Finding Nemo says "just keep swimming" it will get better.
Well that's a new way of looking at it!
That stinks to be unappreciated.
Do things for yourself, reward yourself, praise yourself, be kind to yourself. Take yourself out for a treat. Your self needs you.
I need your email address or my other blog. spm2774@cox.net
