| Ah, finally I sucked it up and bought a treadmill...a deluxe Walmart purchase that would blow anyone away with its like hmmm, 3 features. hee hee. I can walk and stop making excuses. I can finally (hopefully, if it doesn't become a place to hang close on) get in shape and join my friend Ingrid in the hot momma group :) | ||

| When I was pregnant, everyone kept telling me that everything is going to change. "Everything"? I thought...I did not believe them. Can a personality change as well???? I have always been a happy go lucky kind of gal, fun to be around who could provide many laughs. I believe that since our daughter was born, I have not been that happy go lucky kind of gal anymore. I feel almost too much responsibility. I don't want to ever drink too much because I can't stand hangovers and to have a hangover when I have a little girl to take care of the next day is a horrible thought to me. SO, I don't hang out much with others. Secondly, I feel a huge responsiblity to Hannah anytime we are out, meaning that I feel this overwhelming urge to protect her. I know that the urge to protect your children is normal, however my feelings are a bit over the edge. If any child even gets a look in their eye and thinks about hurting Hannah, I start raging inside. Hannah is passive and would not hurt anyone, even if they did something to her. She has always been that way. Justin is sure he is going to teach her to fight back...he is also sure that I will be on the playground with her in school...he just might be right. Lastly, I can't sit down. I want to be the perfect wife, perfect mother, housekeeper, host..you name it. Any suggestions on how to let go, and be my happy go lucky self again? Or is this normal? | ||

I have never been a strong supporter of the war, nor have I ever really been opposed to it. I have to admit that I have been going about my business thinking that the government will work it out and everything will end up just fine. Of what TV I do see (usually only between 8-9p) I have been trying to watch less of things like Dancing with the stars or 3 1/2 men, and watching things like Glenn Beck and Countdown with Keith Olberman. I have never been a stong democrat or republican, and I'm not a political person since I don't feel like I know enough to feel strongly about either party. My husband is blue coller and a strong republican, and since I am dependant on his union for my support, I guess I would have to say that if I had to choose I would choose democrat, from what I have learned from him. You are probably wondering where I am going with this. Well, I am learning more about terrorism in Iraq and Iran, and what we really are up against. It hurts my heart to know that my child could potentially be hurt by this some day. (Other than the usual things we have to worry about too). OK, I am going to get to my point. I have been thinking about our troops a lot lately and what they are going through over there. I went to the beach yesterday and looked at the faces of these people I did not know and wondered if they had a loved one over there fighting for us to be able to go to the beach whenever we wanted, go home when we wanted, shop when we want, pick and choose the resturant we want to eat at.. I felt guilty. When I got home yesterday, we had no power for one hour due to a storm, I did not get upset because we live in a country that allows us to call for help and we will get it, whenever we need it...I want that to continue. So, go troops, fight for us, and I will support you as much as I possibly can. Does anyone else feel this way???? | ||
