Renew The Dream- Thanks Crystal

I just got an email from Crystal. I've been tagged. She wrote about it in her blog, and then sent out an email. (Why didn't I think of that?) You can read about it here.

Anyway, Renew The Dream. What is my dream? Happiness. Pure, real, and deep happiness.

Even with all the difficulties, complications, doctors, wrecks, packing, . . . in my life, I try to be happy. I know we are blessed to be alive. To be alive and in America. To be alive, in America, and doing well. We don't have our own home, a vehicle, or lots of money. But we love each other, have a date night, time with our families, lots of friends, and plenty of memories.

Being happy is an ongoing thing. It's a decision every morning, an attitude, and a goal. I have days where I am successful, and days where I'm not. I think I'm doing pretty good.

Every moment I have that I am happy and at peace is a moment I have continued to live my dream.

Thanks for your comment to me on the Stepmama drama blog.

It's nice for me to see that all stepmoms aren't like my kids' stepmom was (before we made our ammends), too! :)
