when life gets ya down....

....you know whatcha gotta do?

just keep swimming, just keep swimming...swimming, swimming, swimming, swimming, that's what you do....you swim, swim....

i think this will be my new motto.  not that i'm always down or depressed or anything, but we all have those moments.  i know you do.  you're not human if you don't have those moments.  it really is what you make of them, i suppose, that affects what they do to you.  i think my problem is getting overly stressed about silly, trivial things.  i don't want to feel like that all the time.  the tenseness in my upper back and shoulders, the on-edgeness with my children....i don't want that.  bad karma!

so i'm just gonna keep swimmin'....

thanks dori!

Right there with you, Brooke!!! I sure had one of those moments last night. Fortunately, I had a husband who gave me the pep talk by cell phone (while I was lying on the living room with my face pressed into the carpet, trying to pretend I was someone else).

Good reminder, I'll just keep swimming too.

I know how you feel! To quote Sheri Dew, "If life were easy, it wouldn't be so hard". It feels like we get out of a rut and several things happen at once to put you back in one. Love you my friend! By the way, I'll be in San Diego for Christmas. Wanna get together?
