It's only the 6th and already I have had my share of ups and downs.
This month kind of beat me up a little (alot actually). Some things did not go as I would have liked them to, and I was getting a little depressed.
Kyle, being the good guy that he is, tried to encourage me to stay faithful, but couldn't hear hear it. I was so angry, and I started to shut down internally. I needed to take a nap.... (I go to sleep when I'm mad, It's my way of internalizing things, so if it's the middle of the day and I look tired, chances are I'm upset about something....)
A few hours later we were all sitting downstairs watching So You Think You Can Dance. I was feeling a little better, but I was still in a bad mood. Zoe was back and forth between Disney.com, and the TV show, and Miles was walking around with an insulated cup of ice(don't worry, we were careful to make sure he didn't choke) Twitch (one of the dancers from "so you think you can dance") was doing a dance number and then all of the sudden it happened. Miles had a silver peg leg. I saw this cup on his foot, and immediately ran for the camcorder.... (Now if you know me at all, you know that I'm the one that bursts out in laughter at the most inappropriate times. Sorry, I cant help myself... )
After a good 5 minutes of literally rolling on the floor laughing, I felt so much better and I couldn't even remember why I was so up set.
I guess this was my sign from God letting me know that things are not as bad as I think they are. I laughed so hard that I had tears rolling down my eyes. I truly can't remember the last time I laughed that hard and with so much sincerity. It was a blessing... a funny blessing, but a blessing nonetheless.
Update: I Submitted this video to America's Funniest Home Video...

Hey Trish -
Laughter truly is the best medicine!!! I couldn't see the video, I'll try again later! Keep on keeping on! Know that you are not alone in your silent struggles. We may have different obstacles to face, but trust me when I say that you aren't alone. I like the tears that come from gut-busting laughter!
Trish,
I'm dying in laughter over that video. Man, that was hilarious. Children have a uncanny knack for doing something like that *just* at the right time!
