Dear stupid...

Dear stupid car accident,
     I wish you would have never happened.
     Thanks a lot for taking my man and crushing first his body and then his spirit.
     Thanks a lot for leaving my kids with a Dad who can't climb mountains with them, or run and play soccer, or even walk through the grocery store most days.
     Thanks for leaving me with a husband who never feels good enough, no matter what I do or say.
     Thanks for ensuring that our future is full of doctors and surgeries.
     Thank you for removing pretty much everything that was simple in life.

     I could be whining about totally different things right now, never knowing how good I had it...
        
     So really, thank you.  I've learned not to take for granted the life that we had.  Can we have it back now?  No?  Thanks a lot.





PS to readers...yes, I know we have tons of things to be thankful for.  That doesn't mean that a whole lot of things don't just plain suck.  Sometimes I get tired of making lemonade.

  1. Anyone who tells you 'you've got a lot to be thankful for' needs to be told to shut. up.

    I'm so sorry that this is the hand you've been dealt and I know that you're making do and that you're happy for what you have.

    You're entitled to think it all sucks :D

  2. Oh Donna... I'm glad you added the P.S. part. And I agree with Kim.

    Times like this - well, let's find someone with a a paper cut.

    Big hug!

  3. I agree with Kim too. It sounds like you've been making a lot of lemonade...sometimes a vent is well in order. I'll be [raying for you and your family.

    Cxx
