What can I say today?

I guess mostly that I am one messed up woman! I go from being so content with my life, to being so pissed off I just want to scream. Having all those emotions are not fun. One minute I am crying, the next I'm screaming, and then all of a sudden I'm okay. Sometimes I feel like I am losing my mind!

I think I am going to try and put together a scrap book of all my blessings in life. That way whenever I am feeling really down, when I am so frustrated at God, I can look at it and remember just how blessed I really am. Now I just have to get off my butt and do it! I'm a horrible procrastinator!

Anyways, that's it for today. Sorry the posts aren't as often as they use to be. I just can't seem to focus much these last few months.

Hey Shannon...I know how you feel girl. We all go through those up and down emotions. I have been reading your blogs lately and I had no idea about what you have been going through. I will be praying for you every day in hopes that God will bless you with a beautiful baby. Keep your heart humble my darling. God WILL bring you peace and joy if you just look to him. Stay strong through all of this because you are a strong woman. I have to say that after all these years, it is so nice to see where you are at and what you have been up to and I just want to let you know that I am SO proud of you hun. You were like a little sister to me and now look at what a beautiful young woman you have become. I think of you often and I will be praying for you.

Take care
Lets chat soon

The scrapbook sounds like a great idea. Even the act of putting it together might be therapeutic (or at least a distraction). Good luck with it.

Hey, you can think of how you were blessed with such a great brother!! Ok, ok, I didn't mean to send you into a spiraling state of depression with that statement.

I do wish the best for you and Jeff. I do pray that through Jesus Christ you will find peace and be content with the wonderful life he has blessed you both with; your ministry, your loving husband, and judging by your blog, a lot of amazing friends. Now I know, it's easy for me to say on this side of the fence, be content with your current blessings and enjoy life. Heck, enjoy your husband. Let your intimate times be for fun not function. Start dating again. Get back to basics and enjoy your marriage. If you let this control your life it will never bring you happiness. I don't think you are out of line one bit for wanting a child. Nor do I think that your struggles are trivial in anyway. But please don't let it define who you are.

I love you so much Shannon and want nothing but the best for you and Jeff.

Thanks to all of you for the encouragement. I will be sure to add you all to my book of blessings. This blog has really made me see just how many friends and family I have that love me. So a big thank you to you all.

Shannon

PS. Steve, I will be sure to take your advice! Love you!

I am sad, nobody has commented on visiting my new blog. Brittany has finally beaten the pneumonia she's had for the last week and a half. I think we are going to try and sign the girls up for the Little Briches rodeo next month, if I can get out there soon and get the forms filled out. I found the pics from when they were in it 2 years ago, you should check them out in my album on facebook. Have a wonderful trip.
