Julian comes home!!!

After a few days of uncertainty of when Julian would come home, I am pleased to announce that baby Julian came home today. He is positively gorgeous, yes I may be biased, but he truly is gorgeous even with his IV. When we were not certain when Julian would come home, I started earnestly working on his blanket, the more I crocheted the better he got. Did one coincide with other, probably not. However, in my mind it did and that made me feel like I was doing something positive. Course I’ll probably have arthritis in my hands and fingers, along with carpal tunnel and other repetitive stress disorders, but he’s well worth it.Today his shoes arrived. I got him a great pair of Robeez shoes. See on this place I live on as a second home, they were talking about them, about 3 years ago, about how all the yuppie mothers had to have them. so I went and checked them out. I ended up falling in love with them. He will be the second “great” to get a pair from Great Auntie.





Welcome home sweet baby Julian, we waited for you and may I say, in this aunts opinion, you were well worth the wait!

I had all kinds of thoughts and plans for my future. Dreams of the life I'd lead and the places I'd travel. But dreams are simply mist, blown away by the winds of reality, and as a well-known movie of our  younger years taught us, 'Reality Bites'. Reality is a bitter bitch.

Monster Juice Spray pussifying our children?

Today someone posted a cute little story about a pharmacy that prescribes a Monster Spray to children that have monsters under their bed. They spray the spray before bedtime, under their bed and it makes all the monsters go away. A little six year old girl used it three times before she was sure all the monsters were gone. I find this story absolutely adorable. I think it's wonderful that this pharmacists does something so kind for small children with big imaginations. I think a little magic in this world is just what a lot of child need. The response from one woman totally had me stunned. She said it's crap like this that is pussifying our children. Really? Then she went on in another reply when asked what one has to do with the other to say her daughter was bullied and what are they going to make next, bully spray? (They do make a bully spray, it's called mace!)  Her daughter had to graduate early because of bullies. Okay, what does her daughter being bullied have to do...

Sometimes..

Sometimes the emotional pain becomes too much to bear. Sometimes the emotional pain feels like it's going to consume us. Sometimes the emotional pain is so overwhelming that we need a physical pain to release it before we lose ourselves and who we are in it. Not everyone can understand this, I get that. Not everyone can look at someone with scars that were self inflicted and say, I see your pain. Sometimes, we hide those scars under our jeans so no one will notice. It's not for attention, it's for release. Sometimes we dull the pain with alcohol, sometimes we dull the pain with drugs either prescription or illegal. Sometimes we smoke too much and talk to loud. But we find our release to keep us alive. We are survivors with our scars to prove it.
