Serenity. It's a funny thing. It's defined as "the state of being calm, peaceful, and untroubled" In fact, there's even a prayer called the Serenity prayer...."God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, courage to change the things that I can and wisdom to know the difference." We're told to say that prayer when we're feeling stressed or upset. We're told that it'll help us feel serenity. To some, maybe it does. To me, in moments of stress, it helps me in a different way. It helps me to accept the inevitable. It helps me to get past my optimism for a few minutes and realize that there is not always a silver lining.
In other news....
I am TOASTY SUNBURNT. Yes, I decided to suntan to enjoy the beautiful weather yesterday. I was careful to apply sunscreen and THEN tanning oil. Unfortunately, I missed some sensitive areas including underestimating the size of my badonkadonk and the bottom part of my butt is BURNT!!! I did the vinegar thing to take the sting out because I'd rather smell like a jar of Claussen pickles and be comfortable than hurt like hell for the sake of smelling nice. Thankfully the sunburn is VERY spotty (I'm thinking some of the spots just sweated off...like the backs of my knees) and I'm hoping if I moisturize it enough, I can avoid incredibly terrible peeling. That remains to be seen though.
My little man is doing better. He's not healed up completely but he's improving his condition some. His lip swelling has gone down so he can eat a bit better. His wrist is still sore but not bad. He's doing quite a bit better. Dentist comes tomorrow so we can find out the verdict on the teeth.
and....
I'm craving Dunkin Donuts coffee. I think I'd rip off someone's arms and beat them with them to get a coconut coffee with cream and sugar. Add an everything bagel with veggie cream cheese and I'd be yours forever. LOL
Have a Happy Monday!
