My New Outlook...

With everything that we have been through in the past few years it's hard to "think positive", but I'm really, really, trying. Sometimes it's easier said than done & when I catch myself thinking all "doom & gloom" I quickly try doing something for/with my daughter because she's almost always upbeat & positive. I know that a lot of that is because of her age & innocence, but on the other hand it makes me feel like maybe everything we've been through with my Mom hasn't affected her as much as I thought :) So because of & for Brianna this song is going to be my new outlook on our new beginning!!!



With my Mom in an Assisted Living Facility, we are now able to do more things without having to worry about her being home alone. Tonight we went to a church youth group & my daughter LOVED it & can't wait until next week to do it again! I guess we now belong to this church because they asked my daughter if she would be the Angel in their Christmas Play...there was no way she would turn that down, she LOVES playing "dress up"! I appreciated just being able to get out of the house & not having to watch the time because I had to get back to give Mom her meds. or because I couldn't leave her for more than an hour or two because she would get herself into some kind of trouble! I've been wanting to get my daughter into some outside activities for awhile & now we can actually do that. I don't know how long we will be here with foreclosure looming, but it's a great start of something new. Tonight was good :)
