This post really resonated with me. I want to echo what the others say: you’re a great writer, a great woman, a great mom.

I understand about the anger, disappointment. I’ve found that the best way for me to let to these days…. exercise, really hard cardio. I put the kid in childcare — she seems to enjoy it most of the time — and go wild in the gym.

P.S. Thanks for adding Single Mommyhood to your blogroll!

Remembering Ricky, Ricky and I have been school mates and friends for 40 yrs. I was totally shocked when i heard she had passed, my heart is completely broken, but i know if there is a way for her to communicate with me, she will, even if its just to scare me, thats the kind of relationship we had, always torturing each other, even after all these years, it was like we were still in high school, we would get the biggest kick outta remember that time you …….., oh my, what a lost, may she forever rest in peace, love always, dee dee

I think that laughter is the best remedy for everything. Especially with a good friend! I love your writing!

Yep, I do the same thing. And then I’ll get upset with myself for GETTING UPSET!! Sheesh!

Its ok that we’re all praise junkies. We’re all just calling for love because we feel the lack of it in our lives.

I think laughter is wonderful enlightenment, don’t you think? Its our own way of “lightening up”.

And when we do enlighten, suddenly the flood of love that has never left us, spreads to our face and those around us.

Its a beautiful thing.

You’re a great writer and a good person! Take a deep breath and try to detach and move on. This is the pot calling the kettle black, because I’m also a huge praise junkie. Keep in mind that what may seem huge to you may have already been forgotten by others. Ali G sounds like a great distraction.

Don’t you hate when your mind goes buzzing off dealing with crappy little things, rather than detaching? Ali G is a good antidote, for sure!
