One By One

I am a cussing wreck lately.

A wreck I tell you.

I, for one, am sick of it. I am gunna make a change. I think this unhappiness business is all in my head. So here is a list I've made to change my mind.

Ten reasons why I should be happy and not a wreck and not down and out, just hip hop happy.

First, I am funny.

Second, I've got my health.

Third, my kids and husband are healthy.

Fourth, I have a pool this summer.

Fifth, I have lots of people who love me. Hi family. Hello friends.

Sixth, I am not a bad person. I have made some mistakes, but I am not a bad person.

Seventh, I don't have to work outside of the home anymore.

Eighth, I am married to Jared Hendrickson. He is handsome, smart, funny. He was the only guy at the Royksopp concert that knew every word to every song and still could change the oil in his car. And despite recent evidence, he loves me more than he loves the Manchester United.

Ninth, my children are beautiful, talented, smart, sweet and the ARE IN LOVE WITH ME!

Tenth, I am a stay at home mom living in the United States with a nice husband and a car that runs, why on earth should I be unhappy about anything. Seriously I don't even know what real problems look like.

6 sign your pity:

We all get down on ourselves it is natural. I think more so for women than men. Men usually have to think of reasons they aren't awesome - I swear most guys just think they are amazing!

People could write books filled with reasons that you and your family are great people!

Just watched La Vie En Rose and made me realize my problems are so trivial and I am a drama queen.
