Today has been rough for me. I'm not going to lie. I had a little bit of a breakdown earlier and had to lock myself in my room and cry a bit. But, I'm feeling a little better now. I sort of drifted in and out of sleep while laying on the living room floor earlier, and now I actually have something to look forward to. In a fit of desperation, I e-mailed a girl in my ichthyology class. She has a 6 year old daughter and had told me that if I ever needed a break from my kids, she would be wiling to watch them. So I asked her if she wanted to hang out. It's not so much that I need a break from my kids, I just need some company. Well, I just got off the phone with her, and when Chloe wakes up from her nap, we're going to head over to Sky's house for a bar-b-que. I think that's just what we all need right now. Maybe I can make a new friend, because only haveing two local friends is just not enough.
One more thing. After talking to my aunt, I followed her advice, and tried to do some deep breathing. I sat on the couch and closed my eyes. About two seconds later, Chloe told me "wake up." That little girl thinks it's her job to keep everyone in line.

Oh that bar-b-q does sound good! I'm sorry you're having such a tough day. It would be good to find some new friends. Friends (family) have been my salvation more times than I can say in my life. I love you! Hang in there sweetie!
Wake up? Yeah, Chloe has it down.
Just keep breathing. I hope the BBQ was an enjoyable break.
