life

When life comes at you funny, you've got to laugh. Between the constant need to pee or eat, a soon to be ex who keeps finding excuses to call, and hunting for baby knitting/crochet patterns that won't nauseate me all over again, occasions for a good belly laugh abound, even though my life, some might say, is a wreck.

Being a single mother-to-be and domestic violence survivor is definitely serious business, but it's not a death sentence, nor will anyone benefit from me treating it like it is one. I have my life, one that is going through lots of changes as I seek to provide someone else with a life. But there are many women with more responsibility, more challenges and fewer resources. Who am I not to pray for them, be grateful for what I have, and yes, even enjoy it?
