How else would we ever truly appreciate what we have if we did not have a "black patch" with time to reflect. :) Wishing you a most lovely day. :)Stitchy Mc Floss https://www.blogger.com/profile/00562041622656969121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7495416712956662358.post-58393975927541151782016-01-31T07:18:03.139-08:002016-01-31T07:18:03.139-08:00Thank you, Rachel.

It was so sad. My mother was a rock through the whole thing. Making sure he was cared for and visiting him every week in the VA home.<br /><br />Don't second guess your life. Just from reading your blog, I can tell you are loving and caring person. Even if your father doesn't seem to know you, I'm sure he does deep down in his soul :)<br /><br />You look adorable in your pics!!<br /><br />Keep your chin up and think happy thoughts for the coming week.

Over time, I've found more support here than I ever imagined. I appreciate it so much.

LOL I bet it was in color, too!! <br /><br />I know that I would never really want to change my path...it brought me my husband, my son, a job I that I love (except on Mondays). I think I was just hitting a dark patch. But, I'm learning to go with the flow. It's okay if I have a sad day. And it helps quite a bit to talk it out here. I used to worry so much about having a sad day, I would just get worse. I've taken suggestions from friends here and mixed them all up so they work for me. I am very grateful for the support. Have a wonderful weekend!Angela Tuckerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02483920154677722934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7495416712956662358.post-76244106714981831902016-01-29T20:06:46.070-08:002016-01-29T20:06:46.070-08:00I think Stitchy said it all!

Your Dad's situation is a very sad one and living with him like this takes a lot of resolve. But it's normal to have bad days and I'm glad you can share your feelings with us. Hope it helps to write about it...I hope you are feeling all the cheering and good thoughts we all hold for you.Jocelyn is Canadian Needle Nanahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11770193529950365462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7495416712956662358.post-13266691740571210952016-01-29T07:16:13.468-08:002016-01-29T07:16:13.468-08:00Oh friend, I am so sorry about your Dad.

How very sad, at such a young age to loose your life. I remember Hee Haw, we watched it, my dad loved it, too. We lived in the burbs and only got 4 channels back then! Guess we were living in "high cotton" and didn't even know it. :) I think you look adorable. I love seeing pictures of everyone when they were younger. There is so much hope on their faces. I think we all look back and wonder what if...if we had taken this road or that, how would our lives be different. I use to do that, but now I am thankful for all the roads I took....for if I had not traveled down those roads, that often were covered in heartache, but also love and great joy, I would not be who I am today. And as 50 looks my crazy butt straight in the face...I am happy with who I am...and very thankful for those who are in my life. ((hugs)) to you sweet friend...and I prayer today is filled with peace for you. :) Stitchy Mc Floss https://www.blogger.com/profile/00562041622656969121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7495416712956662358.post-6706021187049342802016-01-29T04:46:10.149-08:002016-01-29T04:46:10.149-08:00Good morning, Brigitte.

It's always hard to get through such a day but the good thing is that they go away. So it's a good thing to vent and then go on with your life.
