The other day I had a meltdown..
you know those days, weeks, years where everything piles up
and piles up…
you smile and work thru it..
I can deal with this…
but it piles up…
the smile cracks to a grimace
it piles more, gathering force like a magnate
a crap magnate…
Hello! Give me more to deal with!
Poor Jo, called and unknowingly added to it
the landslide was large,
the magnate was full
& I exploded to tears, yelling, snotty tears
then I was mad because I cried
that I couldn’t deal with everything properly
then I got mad at myself for melting down
and being weak,
which created more snotty tears,
everything snowballs to a
full on meltdown
It wasn’t pretty
Poor Jo, was just being a good friend, sister…..
took the full brunt of EVERYTHING
If you can cower in fear, shock on the phone…
I think she did
Poor thing
we haven’t really spoken since
until this morning…..
she sent me the following e card
True Friendship. Of our great friendship I will jump on the person Who made you sad Like a spider monkey Jacked up on Mountain Dew!!! 2. When you are blue, I will try to dislodge Whatever is choking you. 3. When you smile, I will know you are Plotting something That I must be involved in. 4. When you're scared, We will high tail it out of here. 5. When you are worried, I will tell you horrible stories about how much worse It could be until you Quit whining, ya big baby!!!! 6. When you are confused, I will use little words. 7. When you are sick, Stay away from me Until you are well again. I don't want whatever you have. 8. When you fall, I'll pick you up And dust you off-- After I laugh my rear off!! 9. This is my oath... I pledge it to the end. 'Why?' you may ask; -- because you are my FRIEND! *********************** Everyone can see it, BUT only YOU Can feel the True warmth. ********************** |
I’m so glad she’s still a part of my life!

I love a good pity party. Because, when they are over, Our Father reaches down, picks us up, and sets us back to his work without condemnation! I am so glad the tool he used for you is Humor!
