Well, I had such a good start to my vacation days. I spent yesterday in my sewing room. Leon was watching football. I enjoyed every minute of it! Great therapy. Today started out the same way. I was being creative at the same time as I had a lot of time to think as well as plan what to bring for Thanksgiving. Then something happened - pretty minor in the grand scheme of things. HOwever it bothered me the rest of the day. It "festered" in me all day long. By tonight I have a headache. Why do I let things like this bother me so bad? I don't think the other person thought twice about it. But it ruined my entire afternoon and it shouldn't have. I have to learn how to let those things go. But how? How do I tell my brain to stop thinking about it. This is the main reason I don't always enjoy what is going on in my life. The most important thing to me right now is to ejoy every minute of the rest of my life. Okay that is what I will be contemplating the rest of my vacation. On a side note, I think I have to stop posting from my Kindle. On top of the auto correct, it is very hard to do any corrections at all.

    Lorie, Sorry your wonderful mood was spoiled. Just remember that to a lot of people, you are one of the sweetest people they know. And that includes me! My perception is that you always think of others before yourself. While that seems like such a noble thing, I don't know if that's what is always "best" for you. You deserve to be happy in your life, like everyone does, so maybe you do need to be a little more selfish. I know how that can sound, but hopefully you know how I mean it. I know in my life I've had to learn to say "no" and sometimes that makes me the "bad guy" or the "bitch" but I live with the consequences, not that other person. We all have to stand up for ourselves, because in all honesty most of us don't have anyone else that's going to do it for us. Okay, I'll step down from the soap box. Love you, and remember, let it go, and enjoy the rest of your week.

    Thanks for your kind words Jessie. You always make me feel better. You are the best!!!!!!!! I do need to learn to say what needs to be said instead of keeping it festering inside. I am having a much better day today. Love you Jessie!

    Sometimes, some things are better left unsaid.
