Today I Am Grateful

That there are so many people in my life that are helping me to advocate for wM.  Loving guidance and input is a special gift indeed.

Today I Am Grateful

For all of the supportive friends and family I have.

Thank you everyone!

Things Happy People Do

The article "22 Things Happy People Do Differently" came my way.  I needed to see point number four, "Express gratitude for what they already have."

I've fallen off the wagon.

Will try to get back on.

Today I am grateful for school staff that care about wM as much as I do.

Today I Am Grateful

That I'd had a chance to make myself a hot cup of coffee before our neighbourhood lost power!

When Talking to Moms That Stay At Home

If you're a working outside of the house kinda mom, when you're talking to moms that either run a business from their home or just plan stay at home, it is not helpful to constantly state "But I work during the day, so I can't ...."

Yes, we understand you're scheduled from 9 to 5ish.  You're busy.  Your time is committed.  Got it.  But the constant emphasis on "I work" kinda chafes at the souls of those of us who stay at home and aren't able to eat chocolate and watch TV all day because we're busy too.  Sometimes we're even busy volunteering in the community doing nice things for YOUR KIDS.

I work now, harder than I ever did before.  I just don't get paid for it.
