"Because You're Mine, I Walk the Line..."
Apr. 17th, 2006 09:52 amEaster was very pretty, if very draining. Much better than last year, certainly (last year was the Year of Hysterical Breakdowns; I think I had five before Easter and one on Easter itself). And--the church was beautiful, and the flowers were beautiful (and Daphne is so strong and beautiful, I love to watch her, I love to watch her during the service), and--I looked ridiculous. XD I was wearing a sleeveless dress that was also rather form-fitting, which was just a stupid thing to wear, in general.
...No, really stupid. Because--my head--yes. I have no self-esteem left. It's worse than having to shop for swimsuits, it truly is.
But I rolled down the hill five times, and got leaves in my hair, and made myself a dandelion crown, and picked violets (the violets are making our pasture perfectly purple), and the pink tree outside the window here is blooming, which is just wonderful.
Our family is very hard to have celebrations with, although Christian has improved dramatically now that he's older. But--oh, Lord. Don't even want to talk about it.
And--
(i hate myself)
mixed blessings, I think, in general.
