Yes, exactly. Like, am I content to move forward like this or should I be making changes so when that fateful day comes I can look back and not wish I had done it differently. I don't ever want to look back and wish that I'd spent more time with my kids. They. will. know. how important they are to me and how much I love them.<br><br>
When my Grandma got really sick from the ALS I wished that I had taped her voice singing, humming and even just talking and telling me stories. I wished that I had asked my Grandpa more about the wars he flew in. I would love to have these things to go back and listen to now. So...I try to keep that in mind as I'm living my life. Which is why I started two books for my kids. There is a letter to them on each of their birthdays and then in the back there is a section for funny and/or cute things they say. <img alt="smile.gif" src="http://files.kickrunners.com/smilies/smile.gif">
 
The news from yesterday has made me do both the things you talk about. I literally laid awake almost all night thinking. Thinking about how thankful I am about the people I have in my life, etc. My DS (8 y.o.) came in at 4:00 am and asked if he could sleep with me. DH thinks he is too old for that and for the past couple of months we've been trying to get him to sleep in his own bed and not come in ours. But last night I let him lay with me and I just was so happy that I was there for him when he wanted me. It just tears my heart apart that there are 4 little kids now who can't sleep with their mom if they want to. Its not fair.<br><br>
But, like you said, I was also thinking about things that I'm doing that I shouldn't be, or things that I'm not doing that I should be doing. Because life is too short to be unhappy. So I think its natural to think about those things when you hear news like I did yesterday.<br><br>
On a positive note, the 2nd grade son of hers that was with her on the snowmobile is going to be ok.
 
Really, I'm ready to be done with the -20° in the morning. Where is Spring?<br><br>
Today's hat - a goofy one I wear mostly when I walk the dogs.<br><img alt="" src="http://i200.photobucket.com/albums/aa10/katholeenie/smilie-hat.jpg" style="border:0px solid;">
 
I. know.!!<br><br>
That first smack of the clay onto the wheel, to make sure it is on there good and tight. And then the initial forming of the ball. Judas...I need some clay and a wheel. I wonder if it helps with all frustrations out there.<br><br>
So, do you have a wheel and you throw at home? I've got to find some community class or something. I loved it and I got good enough that I could even do it well when I had nails.
