Dear Self...

Dear Self,

When the world seems to crumble down around you, remember, you have been there done that, and picked up the pieces and moved on before. There is nothing that you can not do, nothing that is too hard, just believe in yourself and trust that you will make the right decisions. And if you don't know what to do, you always have Dave to turn to. And you know, he is always right.

When you get into a "small" tiff with your husband, don't forget about the good times and remember that this is just a small tiff. You have been through the toughest situations with him, and honestly, leaving the toilet seat up once a year is not grounds for ripping off his head.

When you get stressed...stop what you are doing, relax, and remember that you can NOT always control the situation. You can not control traffic, the weather, and other people around you, but you can control yourself.

And know, that sometimes it is okay to cry. And if you feel like it, go for it. And don't worry what the other drivers besides you are thinking, or how your husband thinks your crazy for crying at a commercial....you have every right to cry when you want to.

Love,
*Yourself*

  5. hey self...your instincts are always right, because it's your life. so no matter what choice you make, it will be the right choice--it will all work out in the end. and also, you subscribe to my rss feed by entering your email address in the little box at the top of my left sidebar (you know, the one that says "subscribe via email" heehee). all it does is notifies you by email every time i put up a new post on my blog. nifty huh? i hope your weekend turned out well. :)

  6. SO true! Can I print this out and take it everywhere with me? :-) I'm not even pregnant and I need a daily reminder of this. I know my number one place for a meltdown is the grocery store. I have such a hard time when everyone's getting in my way and crowding me and blocking where I need to be. I have to take a breath and go to my happy place.
