#26 ~ First post in 20 months ~ I'm back!

I haven't written a post in 20 months. Well I am back and hope to keep posting. I'll apologise ahead of time that I'm a little rusty. Last night I went to the Atascadero Horsemen's Club monthly meeting. Most people would say, "Ya, so...and?" 

I was voted in as Vice President back in winter of last year for this year. I have made it to two meetings this year. In the last 5 months I have been going through a heartbreaking divorce, moving to a new house, saying goodbye to most of my animals, an elbow surgery, and in the last 4 weeks I have been in the hospital 4 times, not including a procedure to improve my past abdominal surgeries. Everyday is literally a struggle to stay healthy. 

So you might say blah, blah, blah, boo hoo! Well, that's what I say to myself. How many people in this world would look at my life and wish they had it so good. I have a roof over my head, I have food to eat, I have my beautiful, amazing kids, I still have both of my parents, I have my horse, JoJo, my dog, Happy and my kitty, Zaccheaus. I love my little fuzzy family. 

Well last night I realized that I have incredible friends! I am not going through these current challenges alone. I went to that meeting feeling so bad about myself, because I have not stepped up to what I commited to do. I was actually afraid to see some people, that they might think, "Why is she even here? She hasn't done her share of the work." Instead I was welcomed with hugs, genuine words of caring and no blame whatsoever. 

The importance of getting myself to that meeting was more than just being at a meeting. I proved to myself that I can get out past 6pm, no joke! More importantly it was a huge reminder that we are our own worst enemy. We put far more pressure on ourselves than anybody else. True friends and family don't judge, they love and they care. Thank you to all of you, you know who you are; you did more for me last night than you can possibly ever know. 



What are you doing mama?


Is this my new bed?


I think I need to edit this mom!




*side note..... Zacchaeus wants to type now so I'll bring this to a close.
