We have had so much rain, but I am so grateful for the rain today because it is watering our newly planted seeds and veggies starts! Hooray for the natural watering system.
Been a crazy day, but also a good day. Lily heard Matt this morning, so we were up early. UGH. We did errands all morning long, then picked up Britney's little girl from preschool. Made lunch, then Britney came to pick up Mer. I hadn't seen her in too long, so we were able to catch up for a little bit. Worked on Trifle and returned emails. Made dinner (pizzas with Trader Joe's crust). I have been hungry for the fudgey, flourless torte that my mom has been in love with for a couple of years (she makes it once a week!) I may have to make it...I am in limbo though because I was going to make Lily chocolate cupcakes for her birthday on Thursday, so I hate to have too many temptations around the house. However, I have been hungry for that torte for several weeks. Oh, what a decision!
I have been doing really well regarding our loss, and since I have been back from vacation to see my aunt, I feel as though I have turned a corner. HOWEVER, there are still moments every day that I am sad. Some memory or I will come across something random that makes me think of Daisy. And, then I cry and tell myself to get it together. But why should I have to feel like I need to have it together? It is okay that I am still sad. Yes, I have decided not to dwell on it, but that doesn't mean I can't have a good crying session (or two) on a daily basis!
Revelation 21:4
He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
