SherryMH's blog: "In The Mood."

i think i have just come to the realization that i am at an awkward stage in my life. the trouble with finding and reinventing yourself in your 40s is that "the good years" are in the past and all you have left are a few years at your "peak". 

 

 

i am having a "moment" today. i am not feeling so good about myself.  i am feeling lonely and sad and i am not sure why. i do contribute part of it to men. they have no clue what they do, but always unconciously make us feel useless, unwanted, not good enough, etc. etc.

 

i need a change. i need something.

 

(my stupid settings are not working right, hence no capitalization...grrr)

i remember an icy day 4 years ago when i had just finished starting a pot of my yummy homemade veggie beef soup, walked to the mailbox in the ice, i had received my first letter from my son who was in boot camp in chicago. one of the first lines was "im doing ok mom, but i would give just about anything to have a big bowl of your homemade veggie beef soup right now." needless to say, i didnt eat the soup. i sent it home with my sister.

 

 

fast forward to now... i have a huge pot of soup simmering on the stove and homemade apple cinnamon muffins(his favorite)  baking in the oven. my son is here to spend the day. 

On August 29, 1999 my beloved Daddy passed away after a long battle with cancer. In the last few years of his life I was his primary caregiver. I've found myself to be in that same position with my mother for the past 2 years. I wouldn't have it any other way, but some days it does get tough. On top of it there's always, daily the fear of my grandson's disease looming in the background. Just a little insight on my frame of mind today. Carry on. <3
