Go Away February!

We're only 12 days into February, and I am BEGGING for it to be over.  This has literally been one of the hardest months of my existence thusfar.  So much has gone wrong in such a short amount of time, that I really feel like every time I start to get over something, another blow hits.

I wont go into details about all of my problems, because who wants to read that? I don't even want to read that. But we'll just say my family has gone through some serious tragedies as of late. Its gotten more and more difficult to find a light at the end of this February tunnel.  I know I'm not the first person to go through something like this, or the last; but the reason I started this blog was to talk about my life and experiences and this is one of them.

I think during times like this, it's important to lean on those who matter most to you.  Things are so much easier to handle and deal with when we rely on others.  Family is what makes the world go round.  When you don't have family, you really don't have much.  It's so important to focus on the good things in life, and realize that we may not have control over what others do or say, but we have absolute control over ourselves. And THAT is a great feeling.

What do you do when your down?  What helps you feel better?

  1. I know sometimes it's too soon to make jokes, but that's how my family got through something awhile back. It was a situation we couldn't change, so we just had to laugh about it!

    Sorry you've had a rough month! Let me know if you need anything!

    We will get through this. One thing I've learned, is that we always get over the shock, and we make it.
    We love you so much! Thanks for being a great support to our family.
