In my class last fall one of the theories we studies was Cognitive Therapy. One of the things this theory relies on is automatic thoughts. So if I was working with someone I might have them record their automatic thoughts for a period of time and then we would look for recurring themes to determine how their thoughts affect their behavior. So once in awhile I think about my automatic thoughts....
The receptionist told me that Josiah's next Doctor's appointment is May 5. My immediate thought was, "May 5??? I don't think I'm going to be alive on May 5. That is really far away." And then I realized it is only 6 weeks away. I probably will still be alive.
I suspect that severe exhaustion has set in.

Hold on Girl, you can make it! I remember so well...but just think, in a year you probably wont even remember this time and then you will want to have another one!haha!
Hi Carla,
I've been reading back through your blog. I remember those days SO well. I'll be praying for you. As someone on the outside looking in, I know that this phase won't last forever. But I remember all to well, that feeling that it will never end. If you can keep your sense of humor through it, it will serve you well. I can remember crying and laughing at the same time knowing how ridiculous all of the hormones were making me. I feel for you.
Hi Carla! You probably don't remember me...way back from high school! How are you? ~Silly question...I remember those days with tiny ones! I hope you have gotten some sleep in the past few nights!
