Everyone deserves a "do over"!

(I must first state that I'm not sure who wrote these next quotes... I found them on a "motivational website"... and at the rate I'm going today... I need them!)

Getting knocked down is never our choice; staying down is.

You are bigger than any mistake you'll ever make.

Bounce back whenever you get bounced around.

Who am I to argue with ANY of that? Believe me today... I won't. I'm nestled between Uhaul boxes and twisted up packing tape... listening to Mac play cars. Madi left for Middle School today in a big yellow bus... after telling me that she didn't "need" me to walk her up to wait for it. Has this really happened? Not only I am the mother of a "middle school student", but I'm also "not needed" anymore.


Now... as for Do Overs... (I kindof got lost in my Madi Moment)

I will start blogging again... I will. I promise. But first... I need to untangle myself from the gobs of packing tape that surround me... and get busy so that I can find my cell phone charger in the mess of this mess!

This was the last line of the "motivational" page I found... and my words of wisdom for the day...

The Bottom Line: When you do things over, make sure you do them better than you've ever done them before.
