You are loved and accepted absolutely by God and by the people who matter the most to you. It can't get better than that. The rest if fluff stuff.<BR/><BR/>&#9825;<BR/><BR/>(P.S. I don't have kidlins and I can't imagine where I'd get the time to make curtains and fluff stuff like that if I did. xo)Colleenhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07583840141441745223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36701788.post-88595319972284043872008-05-07T15:45:00.000-05:002008-05-07T15:45:00.000-05:00This is a brilliant post Tara, and is much like the ones that drew me to you to begin with-- I love your honesty. <BR/>I won't tell you what to do... but if I were going to, ;-)I'd agree with your very last sentence and then remind you that you to do what you can, the rest just isn't as important.imbeingheldhostagehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00771374087307254969noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36701788.post-83176342548322285662008-05-06T23:34:00.000-05:002008-05-06T23:34:00.000-05:00If it's any consolation, I totally understand how you must be feeling. I had very scary PPD and used to blog about it when things were at their worst. I hope that you find some comfort in your change of meds. Another thing which I can't recommend enough of to all moms...exercise and time for you. I just got back from the gym tonight (had to force myself to go) but it truly helps what with the natural serotonins. I know that it's hard to get away for a cardiovascular jog, whatever, but it might be what you need? <BR/><BR/>At any rate,I hope that you feel better soon, Tah-rah! :) <BR/><BR/>Blessings,<BR/>Tah-rahTarahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/18123367052814146738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36701788.post-62744190833234524442008-05-06T23:31:00.000-05:002008-05-06T23:31:00.000-05:00Followed you over from That Chick because I noticed you were from Canada too. And I always make a point to always say hi to a fellow Canadian blogger :o) Sorry this is a down day though. It sounds like you have a lot on your plate and it's over flowing. Your post was beautifully written and I hope it helped to write things down. Hang in there!Joy T.http://www.blogger.com/profile/02243256440092139917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36701788.post-10451471047969185932008-05-06T11:18:00.000-05:002008-05-06T11:18:00.000-05:00Tara, I hope that you're feeling better today. I know that dazed, spiraling out of control feeling though and it's not a fun one.<BR/><BR/>Oh and I think blogging is definitely a legitimate use of time. And I tell my hubby so at least once a day. :)Deb - Mom of 3 Girlshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03806252705199445407noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36701788.post-6056501397847951072008-05-05T14:45:00.000-05:002008-05-05T14:45:00.000-05:00People need to leave you alone. You are (realtively speaking) healthy & happy, as are your children. Who cares about the mess, if you are taking care of your most precious things in life. Every single person is different. They need to know that what works for them/what they do, just is NOT for you!! Or whatever. I'm sure you know what I mean. I hope your day gets better, and people quit talking to you!! Sorry about school, BTW. I had too much coffee. :)Robynhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06177908760752916434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36701788.post-37877386306130796952008-05-05T11:57:00.000-05:002008-05-05T11:57:00.000-05:00Surely God is OK with you.<BR/><BR/>Noticing the children's uncondditional acceptance of you is a healthy way to get through a time of "too many marbles" in your head,<BR/><BR/>Our society is way too demanding, especially of Moms.<BR/><BR/>And this blog entry is a well written piece on a challenging day in the life of an introvert. Thanks for your research on intoverts and sharing it on your blog a while back. <BR/><BR/>Your blog is healing and educational and network-building, and points us toward spriritual growth. So that is one of your creative choices. And I thank you for it.<BR/><BR/>And as for meds, you are the pilot of your health, your body is unique - others can only guess. Be very good to yourself in every transition, and keep researching, as the health professionals cannot keep up with info.<BR/><BR/>And as for criticism - OUCH. I can say ouch now some of the time, and can get some of the people close to me to say ouch. It creates a learning opportunity, quite useful. When you were going to high school, society changed so dramatically toward criticism and hurtful comments, as if it was "cool". We have not recovered, but I hope we do. Good for you to blog about it. Keep stirring the pot for kindness to re-emerge.<BR/><BR/>Love you much. <BR/><BR/>G. on the coastAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36701788.post-4198239732889148572008-05-05T11:09:00.000-05:002008-05-05T11:09:00.000-05:00Hugs!!!!<BR/><BR/>We all feel like we need to be better. Okay, I guess I shouldn't say that...I feel like I need to be better. A lot. <BR/><BR/>Love you.Amanda Daybydayhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12615585233433171724noreply@blogger.com
