gave it a rest

So - the headache did lead to actually being sick for a while, then the kids had strep, then... you know what I mean. So I gave the blog a rest for a while. It needed it. I needed it. I was (am) in this kind of funk where things just aren't all that funny anymore. Like, all of a sudden things are Serious. I hate that. But, while I'm in the Serious Mode, let's talk Turkey. Thanksgiving is right around the corner. So what are you thankful for? I was at a charity event the other night and this lady I'm talking to says she has house envy. She wants a bigger house. Now, I've been in her house, and sure, its not HUGE, but its pretty big. 3 levels. A house in the back yard serves as her office. They actually have a yard the size of a football field. Can you really have house envy when some people are living in cars, or on the street? ---- Do you see? This is what I mean by things are just not funny to me anymore. Funny Sara would have laughed and been like "yea, she wants a bigger house, so the maid has a place to crash..." but Serious Sara takes her house envy dead serious and feels angry that this conversation is even taking place. Yecch. Serious funk mojo workin here. Not good. So. Anyway. What are you thankful for? Home? Job? Love-life? Kids? Health? All these things are to be taken seriously. And if you have these things, and perhaps they are not what you expected, but they are Good, well then, I'm thankful for you.
