    Tendrils - Me! I grew up outside of Chicago, IL but now reside outside of Minneapolis, MN. (No, I don't like the cold! and GO BEARS and CUBBIES!) I've been called many names in my life.... many of them derivatives of my given name. My son calls me Momma. My husband calls me Honey. My students call me Teacher. My family calls me lots of things...... ;) However, here, you may call me Tendrils.

    Hubby - My loving husband of 5 years.

    Punky - Our 3 year old son who is growing like a weed!

Black Cloud….be gone…..for good!

Ok, I have felt like for almost the past year now I have had this black cloud following me where ever I go. I have felt like a gloomy, pessimistic bitch – angry at the world. As of today……NO MORE! Black cloud, be gone!

So, from now on…

Yes, I miss my mother-in-law. Yes, she was taken from us too soon. I know she watches out for us…

Yes, I miss my uncle Matt. He too was taken too soon. The Hill Picnic will be so different without him tomorrow, but I know he’ll be there in spirit.

Yes, it kills me to be so far away from my family…especially now that I have Punky.  But I need to be thankful for all the time we do see each other! I know people who goes YEARS without seeing their families! We do see each other quite a bit and we talk almost daily! :)

Yes, I miss being pregnant and I miss my little bean, BUT I will get pregnant again…..and life will and does go on!

Yes, summer is flying by……….and yes, I will have to return to work…..but that’s OK! It’s good for Punky to be back in daycare with all of his friends.

Yes, I am so happy for my sister. Her little guy is due in November….and I can’t wait to meet him! :)

Yes, I feel overwhelmed with all I want to get done around here, but there will ALWAYS be something to do, and you can’t EVER be done…….so baby steps….

So, off I go to pack up for my trip to Chicago for 10 days. I AM SO EXCITED TO BE WITH MY FAMILY! :) So, Black cloud…..be gone! The old Melissa is BACK…..for good! AMEN!

  1. Have fun in Chicago, and sending lots of happy vibes your way!

  2. Cloud be gone!
    It’s gonna be okay, hon. I know. I’ve been under black clouds, TUSHed (trapped under something heavy), you name it. I’m finally on the right path to clear skies, you will too. Enjoy your trip! Wish I could be going to Chicago to see my family, but they’re coming here! :)

  3. Here’s to a gentle summer wind to blow the black clouds into oblivion.

    I’m a little black cloudy myself today. PMS, gotta love it.
