Expectations

October 12th, 2008

I have expectations for myself and perhaps it’s the wrong thing to have… I’ve always lived by the phrase “Expectations are premeditated resentments” although the person that I learned that phrase from swears that’s not ever what he said.

For me, it works.

When I expect things of myself, and I don’t make them happen, I resent it.

Tough on myself?

Absolutely.

My friends, (yes, you can call me John McCain if you wish, I’ve certainly been called worse), something that has changed my life has happened this past week and I wish that I could share it with you, but I can’t.

I want to.  But it’s way to soon.

Way. too. Soon.

And I know.  You don’t want to hear that either, but I feel like I must explain my absense.

I’ve not felt guity, really, about not blogging.  I’ve been working on blog installs and things are hopping… but there’s been something else.  And I hope, that soon, I’ll be able to share it with you.

Because I want to.

Because Thursday, my life changed.  The earth, stars, moon and sun were all placed back into alignment.

And things, for once, were on the up and up again.

And I am the mother of the 2008 Junior League Regular Season champs… they won their last game 30-0 and now we head to the super bowl.  (After we win playoff games of course.)

But all is right with the world.

And for the first time, in a long time, I feel like I am exactly where I’m supposed to be.

Until next time…
