As you can see from the smile, I might almost be back. Well, back as a relative term; I know I have a long way to go before I am anywhere near normal. As an aside, That One said to me today, “You are in a depression, I don’t know if you realize that or not.” Umm, yeah, sweetie, I do. And clearly the man does not read the blog, now does he?

Anyway, back to that smile. Sometimes the weight of having to make a decision is heavier than the decision itself. And make a decision is exactly what I have done today. It was like giving Phenphedrine to th large mental suitcase of troubling issues that I carry around. I’ve asked my most trusted advisers, the folks I refer to collectively as the triumvirate and they all agree with me, so…decision made, smile back in place. They always agree, so in truth, I could get away with asking just one of them any given thing, but I like to hear their individual reasonings. Nope, not announcing the decision. Sorry. I will be evident soon enough.

So, what did I do today? Worked more on the whole house purge. Moved mountains of laundry. And pulled grass and weeds from one of my flowerbeds. Watched rain coming down sideways. Yep, sideways.

I'm Cass. I am a full-time mom to eight great children, a Christian and a blogger. I'm also a knitter, a reader and a movie watcher. And a collector of eclectic oddities.

For the first time in 18 and a half years, I have my own little corner again. Somewhere along the way, I seem to have lost myself, and now that I realize I'm missing, I'm on the look out for me. You maybe don't know what that means, but then again, maybe you do. Regardless, this is where I'll be when I'm not being a mother or a knitter. This is where I'll be just me. And if no one ever reads it, that's ok. I'll know it's here.
