I'm still not going to introduce myself, as many of you out there probably care very little of who I am anyway.
Today, has been a strange sort of day. First time I managed to ruin dinner and had to start over from scratch with a whole new recipe. Blah! My mind is obviously set on more important issues rather than feeding myself with unneeded calories.
Hope that this 2nd dinner turns out decent.

A Fight worth Fighting
I'll introduce myself on another day. What's most important is NOT who I am, but WHAT I am. What am I? I am a parent whose child has special needs.
It is a bit of a lengthy story, and again, that's a blog for another day, but what I do want to say is that I'm optimistic. As I told my friends the other day. Don't feel sorry for me or for my family. There is no need for anyone to be sorry. I am choosing NOT to cry over this. Last year was the time for crying and feeling sorry for myself. This year, it's not about what's wrong, it's about *What's going to be done about it*. I don't want to live my life in regret and blaming myself for things I *could have* done, knowing I have the ability to use what I know and can to do what needs to be done.
We're off to a good start. There will be good days and bad days, but the main thing to remember is that today is today and to focus on that. I feel great today. Tomorrow is another day and will worry about tomorrow, well, tomorrow!
I'm not a great writer. Never intend to be a Pulitzer or Nobel winning writer. I don't have great grammatical skills. I'm writing from the heart, and to me, that's what's most important.
I'm keeping this journal, blog, what-have-you, as my own testament to what type of strength I have. I hope to look back and feel like I've conquered what I needed to do.
