Hello friends, I'm so sorry about yesterday. It's not like me to feel so down like I was. I just think to much has happened lately (oh hell the last year and a half) and then I got more bad news and I felt helpless and hopeless and those are not feelings I'm use to having.
Don't get me wrong, I'm still not up to par and I haven't got everything completely figured out yet. But I vented on my Woman to Woman forum, and the Universe sent two different women to talk to me-diffidently not two that I would have ever thought of or picked out myself.
Then I went shopping, now I don't like shopping like some women do (Pat),usually I try to avoid it as much as possible. You know what though I had a blast! I got some candles and a mist fountain, nothing expensive and nothing that I absolutely needed but a few things I wanted.
Then Rick and I went grocery shopping and had fun together-we didn't talk about the kids or our problems with them once-it was nice.
Rick wanted to BBQ Sunday night-hey it means I don't have to cook-and some neighbors came over and it was alot of fun!
So no I haven't got it all figured out but I'm working on a few things and I'll let you know what they are as soon as I have the plans firm.
Since I didn't get to make you laugh or smile yesterday I'm going to give you a little joke today to help you make it through til next Sunday:)
Penis Van Lesbian
A good looking man walked into an agent's office in Hollywood and
said, "I want to be a movie star."
Tall, handsome, and with experience on Broadway, he had the right credentials. The agent asked, "What's your name?"
The guy said, "My name is Penis van Lesbian."
The agent said,
"Sir, I hate to tell you, but in order to get into Hollywood, you are going to have to change your name."
"I will NOT change my name! The van Lesbian name is centuries old, I will not disrespect my grandfather by changing my name. Not ever."
The agent said,
"Sir, I have worked in Hollywood for years...you will NEVER go far in Hollywood with a name like Penis van Lesbian!
I'm telling you, you will HAVE TO change your name or I will not be able to represent you."
"So be it! I guess we will not do business together," the guy said
and he left the agent's office.
FIVE YEARS LATER......The agent opens an envelope sent to his office. Inside the envelope is a letter and a check for $50,000. The agent is
awe-struck, who would possibly send him $50,000?
He reads the letter enclosed...
Dear Sir,
Five years ago, I came into your office wanting to become an actor in
Hollywood ; you told me I needed to change my name. Determined to make it with my
God-given birth name, I refused.
You told me I would never make it in Hollywood with a name like Penis van Lesbian.
After I left your office, I thought about what you said. I decided you were right. I had to change my name.
I had too much pride to return to your office, so I signed with another agent. I would never have made it without changing my name, so the enclosed check is a token of my appreciation.
Thank you for your advice.
Sincerely,
Dick van Dyke
(I don't care who you are, that's funny).
Hope this made you smile! Until we meet again...

I'm glad you were able to have mini-break from the challenges that life has been throwing your way, Natalie. We need to be able to do that sometimes, just say fu*k it and blow off our problems, even if it's only for an hour or two. I hope you can give yourself MORE mini-breaks and on a regular basis.
LOVE the Penis Van Dyke joke! Made me smile. Thanks, Natalie xo
It sounds like despite everything you managed to have a bit of fun and that's the business. It's great to be able to go out and leave kids, worries, problems etc behind, even if it is for a short while. It can make all the difference betweek make or break.
That joke is hysterical! I can't wait to tell it to someone! Keep them coming Natalie and I hope that this week gets better and better for you xx
