So in the busyness of my day I find myself face to face with none other than my nemesis. I try to avoid the confrontation but sadly, it is inevitable. No matter where I hide or where I go, the realization of this meeting encompasses my every thought. I am overwhelmed with agony just at the sight of……even at the mention of this name. My head longs for relief and my soul yearns for freedom from this never-ceasing scarlet letter that lingers and lingers. I can take it no longer…..avoidance is futile. There is no turning back. I must go and meet my nemesis head-on. Realizing that relief will be momentary, I sigh and continue on, for surely we will meet again; there is always more laundry to be done…..

Did you ever feel left out of something? Have you ever felt like you were the only one who didn’t get invited? I have to say that growing up, I guess that happened a time or two but I never really felt that bad about it. I was always just appreciative when I did get invited somewhere instead of being upset about what I didn’t get to do. An adult now, I sometimes secretly hope I don’t get invited to things sometimes, just because I feel so busy. It is nice to not have anything to do-at least I think it is-I’m not sure because I always have something to do. Even now I am thinking about the laundry I need to move into the dryer and about the unassembled Bowflex in my garage that is creating an impenetrable maze that will exist until the end of time. So invite me, don’t invite me-no crying here….unless I’m working on the Bowflex-then there will be great weeping.
This is my wife’s new blog. I set it up for her as a Christmas present and just wanted to write this post to tell her that I love her and cannot wait to read what she is going to write here over the course of the next year and beyond. She is an incredible communicator and writer and I hope that she will be able to get her writing bug back starting here. So with much anticipation I welcome you to www.thatswhatshesaidblog.org!!! I love you sweetheart and Merry Christmas 2008!!!
