Down by the sea shore

Getting enough sleep last night.

Going to work today to help my stranded mother (every one's out of the office but her). Happy that I can step in and just do what needs to be done to help her catch up. It's easier that way no training required. Plus I get paid for it...bonus :)

Lots of rain this morning.

Knowing exactly where I'm headed without understanding how I'll get there. Just knowing things will be fine and I am where I'm supposed to be right now.

Sitting quietly with Chad this morning, each doing our own thing within site of each other and how peaceful it was.

Knowing myself better every day, catching myself manipulating situations out of fear and stopping it immediately. .... I can only control myself, have good intentions and what happens ... happens.

Knowing I'm going to be the crazy old painter lady that lives in the cottage by the sea some day and loving it.

My girls following the rules and going to bed at 10 like they were supposed to last night even though I wasn't here to enforce it. (Got home at 10:20)

Knowing that even though they argue sometimes and have acquired my unfavorable skill of disorganizational cluttered hell, they are good, unique young ladies and I'm excited to see what they do with their lives.

My mom for being the best example she could be with the knowledge she had and for being as open minded as she can be now. For always taking my rebellion with a grain of salt, biting her tongue and letting me be who I am at any given moment and always sticking up for me.
