Do you learn the above ditty in your childhood? If not, the first part goes like this" Nobody likes me, everybody hates me, guess I'll go eat worms!" That is the theme song at my party today. My private pity party, that is. It is THAT time- the time where I feel an ogress lurking underneath my skin and want to run screaming for the hills and hide myself in a cave, gorging on choc, popcorn, while reading good books, or maybe just rocking back and forth on my haunches, humming eerily to myself. Ok, it is not that bad, BUT I am feeling really thin skinned and sensitive, therefore, I am heading into Mother's Day feeling unappreciated and not valued as a human being. I know those thoughts are lies and just a bunch of bunk, wow, I am feeling it! I am going to pray hard to keep my head on straight in order to deal with my life properly today, 'cause my human nature wants to cry and protest over some little injustices in my life that have occurred in the last 24 hours. Things that I can choose to blow out of proportion or I can choose to practice some grace and just shut up about it. Heck, I better go find my duck tape until I can trust myself to speak...

UPDATE: It is now evening and I am reporting in to say that I am in a better frame of mind: a little aggressive gardening and a few smooches from my husband worked wonders! Hope you all have a blessed weekend.

Don't let the devil convince you to waste time being sad!lol Just think: what good will it do?
Do something fun today! Go for a walk and take pictures! Bake a cake! Something!lol
I know how you feel though...sometimes you just wanna feel what you're feeling...been there, done that!
Sorry you are having a bad day. Don't eat worms, though. Eat chocolate. It will make you feel much better than worms.
What a frustrating time to try and celebrate. Doggone girlie stuff. But hey, that's what lets us be mommies...you can slap me now! :o)

One last idea....go watch the movie "How to Eat Fried Worms"...it'll make you smile!
I've had some ogress tendencies lately too. Glad you are feeling better.
You are loved and appreciated! :)
I'm all for having a day to spoil yourself with chocolate and no laundry! :) Glad that you seem to be feeling better.

Well I can certainly say I understand the thin skin feeling.
Seems like it is more often these days then not...hmmmm..40++ wonder what could be the cause? Ha!
I am glad you are feeling better. There is nothing worse than soaking in un appreciation on mothers day.
Way to go Jane's man!
I love it when Keith cares that I am in a funk--and then bless be God when he can pull me out.
You have a great Mothers Day!
I just can't imagine you as an ogress...but I know the feeling. :-)
I just wanna know - did the duct tape work?? Are there pictures?
:-)
Happy mom's day!

Glad to read at the end of your post that your day got better. Those days are not fun. I was down last week (for other reasons) and my diet really suffered. But I had some really good (bad) food. ;o)
Thanks for being so honest.
