emotionally exhausted
I envy the people who have civil encounters with their child's other parent. This has been such an emotional couple of days. Im behind on homework, I cant sleep, and to top it off when Im stressed out I eat! I have been treating this blog like a journal that I can express my thoughts and feelings. I hope no one is offended by my posts. I feel that the blog has been my vice this last month or so. I honestly feel bi-polar. One day I will be happy and have energy to take on all the challenges the day holds, and the next day I have to literally crawl to the bathroom to take a shower and get ready for work. Im trying to hard to stay positive but I just cant seem to keep up the facade for more than a day. This might sound a little cliche but if I didn't have Caleb I don't think I would do anything that I am doing right now. I don't think I would have the drive to go to school, and I don't think I would think much about my future. He is defiantly my driving force for everything I do. Today Caleb wanted to have popcorn and watch a movie. So he climbed on the counter and grabbed two bowls for us. He told me he wanted the one that said chicken soup on it. I said "ok but you have to be really careful because that bowl used to be your Great-Grandpa's popcorn bowl and that is very special to me. You would have loved him Caleb. He was a great man. He used to work on cars and big logging trucks." Caleb said,"Mom I will be so careful. Can I work on big trucks when I get big like my Great-Grandpa?" I told him yes and sent him to the living room with his popcorn. I started to cry. It was so sweet and I wish he could have known his Great-Grandpa. I feel like an emotional wreck lately. Like on the way to work the other day I heard they Carrie Underwood song "Temporary Home" and I started bawling when I was singing to it. What the heck is wrong with me! Well I better get some other homework done. Have not even started my Anthropology homework that was due Saturday.

sorry things aren't going well but you seem to be such a strong person. We all have those days where is doesn't feel like you can get through but thank God for children because sometimes they are the only reason we keep going. I have those days a lot. Keep your head up.
