How do you stand strong when you feel like everything around you is falling apart?
How do you smile at your children and say that everything is going to be alright?
How do you look at your son with glee when he just peed on your loveseat? *sigh*
Off to clean a loveseat.

Football
Well, I've learned something new about myself. I'm not THAT crazy about football. I thought I loved football with a passion. Once we got to the Superbowl, I realized... what's the point? Football consumed me on Sundays... I'd think... ok... hurry up... finish the sermon so I can get home and fix lunch for the kids so I can see the game...
when the Bengals were on a losing streak, I wasn't such a die-hard fan.
I'd watch a few games here and there... but it didn't consume my every thought.
Well... since the Bengals had no hopes of the play offs. I began to root for the Cowboys... they got knocked out by the Giants... so... I decided to root for the Packers... they got knocked out by the Giants...
ahem...
it was Giants and the Patriots...
ok... I'm definitely rooting for the Giants!
YAY! We won! Which is awesome because I'm from NY... so I felt a tinge of pride for my home state.
However, at the same time... I was thinking... am I wasting my time here? I love and enjoy football, but is it consuming me? I hope not.
I did learn how to crochet! :) Isn't that interesting? I go to a super bowl party and I leave with yarn and a crochet hook! How often does that happen? I'm looking forward to crocheting and making myself things.

Implants... not breast implants...
Ever wonder if other people are hard of hearing as well?
I was in the store today and someone was asking me a question... and I answered...
then she pointed to my ear that is showing my Freedom implant... and says... "What is that? A unique Bluetooth?"
"No, it's my implant"
*GASP* "You shouldn't tell people when you get implants! That is simply too much information! Oh how disgusting!"
(If you're wondering... she was... ahem... very small)
"Ma'am, I am sorry for not clarifying, these are my COCHLEAR implants. I am deaf without these. Also, for your TMI... these are real...not implants."
Her face turned very red.
Isn't that an amusing trip to the store?
