Quick like a bunny
Dear Kittens,
Very quickly.
1. I have an awesome relationship with my mom and I am perfectly aware at how unusual that is and how lucky I am to have her. I do not take that relationship for granted at all mostly because of the people I know (in real life and online) who have lost their mothers. I see the holes that loss leaves in these women's lives and I know to cherish my mom.
2. I am on a horrible sleep schedule, so I'm looking to fix that. In bed by 10 pm. No matter what.
3. I'm reading a book by my favorite author and I'm having trouble getting into it and that's sort of bumming me out.
4. This new medicine I'm taking is leaving me feeling a bit wonky and wobbly at times and that's frustrating, but hopefully it won't last very long.
5. I did some minor purging today and it set me free in the most unexpected way. It was a bunch of card stock that I didn't want to use anymore. I finally gave it to my mom to use in her classroom or donate to other teachers and as soon as that paper was out of the house, I felt a tremendous weight lift from me.
6. For a while there eggs tasted really bad to me. I'm not sure what happened, but when I ate eggs they tastes sulfury. That's gone away now and I am so happy because I love eggs so much. For the past two nights I've had fried eggs for dinner.
7. Bed time!
Love,
Catie
That photo of you and your mom is so precious!!! She looks exactly the same, and so do you, pretty much.

thanks for cherishing your mom. it means a lot to me. it's kind of like a driving force in my life.
if you don't understand where you came from, or your parents didn't treat you right, how on earth can you understand the world, and make it right? you know, by what? making it better. when we are long gone, the world will be a different place filled with all the bells and whistles we could only dream about. i'm just saying.
