Being a grown-up

I was watching a new show the other day and thought it was pretty funny.  She has a voice over about what she is thinking in her head while she is engaging in the rest of the world.  She made a pretty insightful conclusion.  She was talking about how in high school you cannot wait to grow up and get rid of the anxiety and feeling stupid (self conscious).  But once you are grown up, you still have all those feelings and even more anxiety and feeling stupid for actually having those feelings.

Oiy.  My dad used to tell us ALL THE TIME!  The only thing harder than growing up is being grown up.  Boy is he right.

There are 12,000 things I think about, almost simultaneously.  I know I should let it rest and not worry, but that is so much easier said than done.

Today at church we sang one of my fav songs "all I have is yours".  That is what I want to be able to pledge, but fall short so many times.

I know I can only do what I can do.  The serenity prayer is comforting to me, try to change the things I can change!  I know life is about to change in such a huge way, but I am excited to see where it goes.  I know there is a purpose for everything and I can't wait to find it.

I'm so very thankful for my support system and all my great family and friends!  I really would be certifiable without you!
