1) I got around 5 hours of sleep last night and my eyes are bloodshot
2) Olivia cried during most of the 20 minute drive to her preschool this morning
3) I looked down and the 'check engine' light was on in my car
But there's still hope for the rest of today, right? (Right?!!)
On a more positive note, I found this song online the other day and thought it had a pretty cool message so I thought I'd share...
Superwoman by Alicia Keys
Everywhere I'm turning
Everywhere I'm turning
Nothing seems complete
I stand up and I'm searching
For the better part of me
I hang my head from sorrow
Slave to humanity
I wear it on my shoulders
Gotta find the strength in me
Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Still when I'm a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I'm a Superwoman
For all the mothers fighting
For better days to come
And all my women, all my women sitting here trying
To come home before the sun
And all my sisters
Coming together
Say yes I will
Yes I can
Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Still when I'm a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I'm a Superwoman
When I'm breaking down
And I can't be found
And I start to get weak
Cause no one knows
Me underneath these clothes
But I can fly
We can fly, Oooohh
Cause I am a Superwoman
Yes I am
Yes she is
Still when I'm a mess
I still put on a vest
With an S on my chest
Oh yes
I'm a Superwoman
Oh yes
You are a Superwoman

Good luck with the rest of the day!! Crazy fun start! I liked your previous post about the "wanting things" I do think it is pretty (ok, incredibly) hard to do in our society. We are constantly barraged with things we need/want/should want, and it is hard to ignore all the signs. I wonder how many items are thrown at the average american each day, telling us what we should have.
The funnny (or sad) thing is that Americans actually have it better than some other countries, like Japan. My friends lived there for 3 years, and said consumerism is much worse than here. Crazy!
Okay, done ranting now! Have a great rest of the day.
