You are such a young, sweet girl! So young at heart, and I love it. Walking barefooted to the mailbox sounds exceptional! Did you know that this can stimulate your brain? Because of all of the nerve endings,etc. It's very good for you, mentally. So when it's a bit warmer here (I'm always cold) I will try it, in your honor. Regarding my posts; I'm still in the phase where I need to write it out (the whole family thing) to process it; and yes, there is more sweet than I'd ever imagined, especially when it comes to the sisters...what gems I've got for siblings. So... I've kept myself really REALLY busy for so many years, trying to avoid the conflict within MYSELF...it wasn't time to face things yet. I do believe now is that time. For some strange reason, having a sort of sounding board helps. I've written in scads of journals and it doesn't have the same effect. So I'm grateful for the blogs and I'm grateful for the feedback. Healing is never a solitary thing, is it. I love your 'fawget about it'....that's coming! I'm sure this will be finding my way into daily vocabulary, possibly as soon as tomorrow! Hugs!

and the floor? has it gotten done yet? awwww --- I was like this for many a year - and the knees knobby to nothing these days for it. God bless you Darson ~ you're just too precious to boot. I don't envy you about the tenant problems. and especially if you get a bit anxious around confrontation and controversy, oh my that's a double duo for more anxst. I have come to a place in life where I've lived through much, I've climbed high yes, (my husband here spurred me on a great deal winning my confidence) and now, I'm either ready for more or just sage for it all ~ I'm reflecting from your blog here on early childhood. and you know Darson, I simply find only the best --- and I was raised in an extremely dysfunctional (THE term) household. The past is the past and now into each day comes a new beginning --- either I choose to accept it or fawget about it...LOL ~ I walked today - to the mailbox which is about a football fields length away from my back door. and I walked 'barefeet' --- I couldn't believe, but I wanted to remember the feel of the earth under my feet (yet, I did not hum Carly Simon's song...)
~ I enjoy the whole purpose of your blog here ---- it's interesting - on coping, on decisions - on life with fullness and all it brings, certainly it brings me appreciation and inspiration as well. ~ Elyse --- Write on!~

'Bu....! I got the floor done and am going for a little R and R with the Husband...vegging in front of the tv, etc. He's going hunting tomorrow so I will have the house alone with just me and my baby girl...we will probably stay in our jammies and lie around on the couches, talking...want to join us???

Ha ha ha, Justi, that's great. I actually have a few mops from the business out in the garage; but Mother taught me to hand-scrub...she said it's the best way...but some traditions are meant to be broken, aren't they. I actually wound up doing the floor after all, and it was good therapy; got the blood pumping...and THEN I went for a walk at sunset. So it all worked out. Thank you, Justi!

First of all I agree with Justi one hundred percent.
Your life has been anything but calm and steady and go do fun things for awhile. Doesn't matter what and doesn't have to involve money. You my sweetheart need time for you to get your head really straight ...I think probably write but only you can know. We love you.

Sweetheart go to the grocery store and buy a mop with a long handle on it.Get a pail and fill it with warm soapy water, dip that mop into it and wring it out. Mop that floor standing straight up and if that displeases anyone, tell them to buy their own floor and clean it any way they choose. If someone in your immediate family complains about it tell them you feel they would look much better on their hands and knees than you so go for it. You are a sweetheart.
