What a difference

Truly what a difference one day makes.  It is so nice to spend a day with my husband.  We still had Alex with us, but we had a great day together.  One of those days that you just don't want to end.  We didn't do anything special. We had breakfast and went shopping.  Then we had lunch and did some more shopping.  We didn't need anything in particular except hair goop stuff, but it was refreshing and restful.  It always feels like therapy to go to a big box store and shop.  Not because I love to shop, but because I see other families exposed.  You know they aren't all at their best.  Everyone has seen the Wal-mart photos.  It's very real in those stores.  Kids misbehaving, people spending too much money, people not agreeing on what to buy...you know just life.  It really puts things into perspective for me.  I realize the problems I have aren't really that big, just mine.  I can work through them.  I just need to just make the effort.  I need to communicate issues that are bothering me.
I had a friend come over for coffee today...it was wonderful.  Why don't I do that more often. I have great friends...really good supportive people who care about me.  They also don't care that I have issues.  They take me for who I am not what I am. 
I need to focus on that more often...
Life is good, I need to just look for the good instead of the bad.
