Past time...

Hi Mr. Twinkle Toes
So many letters have been written about how I want to get better, feel better, live better. Day after Day I have continued to make all the wrong choices, I know full well to punish myself. I'm so tired of everything thats not working for me. Then I heard this in my heart, was it you talking to me?

"It's past time to let the happy, healthy, active Karen out of her prision. There is no sentance to serve, she is free"

Time to poke my head out above the sand, blink to adjust my eyes to the sun, stretch my body and move, slowly but surely, one step at a time.
I love you to the moon and back.
Love Momma

Dear Joe and Karen, I just saw your request on Dr. John's blog - please don't think that points for a contest are the ultimate goal for those who have visited your blog from Dr. John's page. I was here once before and I was very touched by your blog, I cannot imagine what you must be going through and you are in my prayers. As I am sure you are now in the prayers of a good many other caring people who just happened by because of Dr. John's fun contest but were touched by what they read in your posts. Most of us are just in this for the friends we find along the way and we end up encouraging one another. Look at the friends you might make rather than the idea that was a contest that brought them to you. They care, they really do.

I hope it helped and I sincerely hope that you will be blessed by the many friends who truly do care about you and what you are going through. Thanks for visiting my blog, what you wrote brought tears to my eyes but a blessing to my heart. Come back anytime.

It is hard to pull yourself up when you are down sometimes. Even when you know you should and have the intentions to work on it, it is hard. It is a journey, not a destination! Don't be too hard on yourself. But don't give up either.

You are often in my thoughts. Take care!

what lovely words Cindy left for you. i second them honey. Dr. John is an amazing person and he meant his best as i know you know. it was throught him i got to meet the loving Catch and through her i was able to find you again. and i had been looking without results.
it's called a game but it's more than that. OF COURSE IT IS EASY FOR US TO KNOW THAT SINCE WE ARE REGULARS AT HIS BLOG AND WE KNOW ALL THIS. YOU ARE NOT A REGULAR SO POOR YOU, YOU HAD NO IDEA WHAT THE HECK WAS GOING ON. SO DON'T FEEL BAD AT ALL. HE IS WONDERFULLY UNDERSTANDING.
when i started blogging i new not one more person than my bf and now i have many new friends that like you lend me a hand when i'm down. just like you did for me with your amazing words. oh how i needed them. i needed all that love and i got it. i'm so grateful. i thougth i didn't want comments but i tell you i cried happy tears when i saw so much love and care. my world has too often being filled with loneliness and sadness and now i have made a family of hearts. like you. you are stuck with me. i love you. thank you for caring.

i think that your words in this post are a postitive step. today i forced myself out of bed and washed and made myself go. i went to the mall. got some shirts with funny sayings for my son and got my nails filled and a pedicure. then i went for dinner with the bf and then went to Haircutters and got my hair trimmed...all i could do this morning was just breath. before this thing with my mom i was already so lonely as i had to send my kids to their dad's for his time. so the house was quiet, too quiet and i was sad.
and yesterday i spend the whole day in bed, watching tv, feeling miserable and then in the evening, well it happened....and things went nuts after that...

so i made me do what i didn't feel like doing. get up and do something. out of my bedroom and out of the house. it helped alot. and now i'm much, much calmer and hopefully tired enough to get a good sleep...the point is that i think your idea is a good one.

remember you are not alone. i'm here. so many of us are here. we love you.

say hi from me to your baby in your dreams tonight.

I do think it was Jack speaking to your heart hon...and its all right for you to see....there is no need to punish yourself...you are a wonderful person...and Jack is doing the best he can at letting you know..."its ok". he sends you raindrops, he sends you butterflies, and he sends you the sunshine, all of this is part of Jacks love for you and Joe. I love you.
