I am Flawed.
I am sooooo flawed. Doesn't that word sound weird when you say it a lot? Flawed, flawed, flawed. Remember how I told you how much I love a good pity party? Well, you are all invited. I am feeling the weight this month of a lot of responsibility to be a good Mom, Wife, Sister, Friend. And of course, I seem to be coming up short. A lot. Now remember, a good pity party does not require you to make me feel better. In fact, you are uninvited if you feel the need to tell me how awesome I am. I know, it is tough to hold back. If you want to come to my pity party, you need to tell me why you feel you stink too. Because you do. We all do. Ha, ha, ha. I feel better now. Thanks for coming!

Flawed does sound funny. For myself, I would prefer incompetent, impatient, critical and clueless.
Oh I LOVE a good pity party! I'll bring the WHINE and cheese. ;) (non alcoholic of course)
I stink because I try and ACT like I don't care that even though Marc is not working, I still do the lionshare of the work around here. But in actuallity it bothers and annoys the crap out of me. But I'm too stubborn to ask for help and tell him (so instead I just quietly simmer about it - not good).
We seriously need another reunion. I am going to make it happen. I suggested to Heather that we do one in Utah. What do you guys think? Or do you still want to try for California.
Oh my gosh well I could go on and on about how awesome you and I can't help but say so. So you're awesome and I love ya!!! But here's why I stink as a mom. My 14 month old doesn't sleep through the night. My 3 year old doesn't sleep through the night. I'm not sleeping through the night and it makes me cranky, very cranky. My family had ceral for breakfast lunch and dinner today with a few crackers in between. My pantry shelves are empty and so is my fridge and instead of going to the grocery store I'm going to Kohls with you to spend my free 10 dollars. And don't even get me started with my behavior as a wife. Can't wait for some uplifting words from conference on how awesome we all are as parents, sisters, wives, and friends.
Wow, I LOVE such an honest post! I usually call myself a loser. Yep, that's my word when life just gets too hectic for me to keep up and my house is a disaster and there's nothing to eat and last week's to-do list is full of good intentions I never crossed off. LOSER!
I wish we had more time to do Christ-like things instead of the daily grind. But your post just helps remind me that we ALL feel this way some days, and sometimes we feel this way for more than a day!
Man, I've been missing out, not stalking your blog for a few months.... well, yesterday I had my pity party, like a big one. My motto for the day was, "I'm a failure"... I went to parent teacher conferences and nearly cried right in front of my sons teacher, just one more reminder of the failure I am. Then I watched the video you posted on Facebook of the autistic boy who was the basketball superstar and couldn't keep up the pity party I was having. You changed my perspective in an instant... darn you.
