Inspiring Picture

My brother in law sent me a really nice email along with this picture.. :-D It just made my day seeing this picture just relaxed me. I decided to use it as my screen saver so that i can remember to relax and take in the day and remember what my husband told me.

D used to be so much more relaxed when we meet up until maybe our son was born. But he told me about stuff going on at work and I said doesn't it bother you? He said no and 'why stress over things that you can't control'? So I am trying to take this on. When stuff happens and I am really annoyed I say why stress it's out of my control. And I actually feel better. I guess D can still teach me things.. After being together off and on for 9 years, 4 years of staying together to almost 5 years of marriage. He still surprises me and we still can have a great time together. So thanks D for helping put things into perspective.

What a friend..

Do you have a friend that just is so kind hearted.. that wouldn't hurt a fly? She is the one that is really good at keeping in contact? Well I do? And it is rare for me to have found a friend through work... B is really good at making sure to keep in contact with everyone.. Whether they are still working at the same company... on maternity leave or even with her on maternity leave.. And she makes motherhood look so easy. I know when i was on my leave i probably looked like a crazy lady but she looks great and put together - still. :-D I miss her like crazy cuz we used to either walk or go out to eat lunch together. try for at least once a week or so. And as luck would have it we finally work in the same building.

She is one person who doesn't judge me for all my craziness that i bring to the friendship.. From complaining about friends or family.. to just weird things that i have about me. She just let's things 'roll' off of her. There are a couple times i have seen her irritated so i don't feel like i am the only one with issues. but overall she just amazes me.

i hope to be 1/2 as relaxed as she is one day.
