Life is looking up

I am truly a believer in everything can’t all work great at one time. Except it finally happened. And great is probably a bit of an overstatements, so let’s switch that to ‘good.’ Right now, life is good. I woke up this morning feeling like things are nice. The kids are safe and healthy, I am safe and healthy, I re-entered a relationship with a good person, financially I’m still okay. KNOCK ON WOOD everywhere!! I feel like almost having the thought or even worse, writing it here is going to jinx everything.

Typically my life is where I’m doing well business wise, happy to be free of financial worries, but then my love life is in the shitter. Or my love life is great, but I’m dealing with some ex or kid dramas. At any given time, I never feel like everything is okay… I can be calm, relaxed and happy.

So this morning when I woke up, I did something quite different than I typically do. And I know it may come off as sounding cheesy or like those uber religious people (which I am not) but I said a prayer of thanks to God. I just thanked him. So many times am I asking and praying for help… but this time, I have to thank her.

Now, this doesn’t mean all thus life problems are solved in the life of yours truly. No. I am still not happy with my weight or difficulty not drinking. I try… try… try again. I repeat in my head like that silly little blue fish, Dori, ‘just keep swimming, just keep swimming…’ and I will swim as long as my little fins are on.
