I often feel the same way, and on top of it, hate myself for feeling that way! I do love myself, on the inside. I know I'm a good person, a good wife and a good mother. Why isn't this enough for ourselves?! I try to tell myself that this life is so short and I already spend much of my precious time doing the things I don't want to be doing (like going to work, cleaning the bathroom and dealing with finances) that I shouldn't waste said precious time hating myself for not being skinny. How silly! When I'm dead and gone, no one will remember that I was fat, that I ate too much ice cream or that my thighs used to be long and lean. They'll remember that I loved to laugh, I was a good friend, I cooked some kick-ass meals and I loved my son and family more than anything. Same goes for you. <3drehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14560646166061475364noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3602738963034213419.post-58322043085412719722011-01-07T14:22:09.319-05:002011-01-07T14:22:09.319-05:00Christine I am so happy that you are actually writ...Christine I am so happy that you are actually writing in a journal and not typing it!

I'm ...Well, I love you, and you are beautiful. I'm so glad you're blogging again. I love hearing your insights on life. Hey, I'm starting a journal this year. In a book...by hand...not typing. I remember you said something a couple years ago about how connected you feel when you pen something out. When you initially said it, I thought, "Well, I type a lot faster than I write, so I'll stick with that." But this year I completely agree with you. I hope you feel better soon. :)Decker and Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05638632347307939843noreply@blogger.com
