your invited to my pity party

I am feeling really homesick at the moment. February is just a hard month for me. I missed my dad's birthday and it has just been such crummy rainy weather lately and I am just really missing my family. It is such a bummer when I feel like this, and usually I don't. I felt this way last February as well and I almost killed myself and Easton by driving home and surprizing my family at my nephew Paytons birthday party. Really- my car almost slid of the edge of a snowy cliff. So... I am not going to risk a mid-winter drive through the mountains and I am just going to keep looking at pictures and missing everybody... aren't I an upper tonight? I think the real reason I am feeling down is that I was really sick Monday and when I went to the Doctor Tuesday I found out I had a bladder infection... first one ever. It SUCKS!!! I have not slept well and just felt like crap! My meds are kicking in now and I am feeling better. Derek has been so soo busy trying to take care of all the extra stuff for me as well as school and poor Easton has been so bored so I feel like a bad wife and mom. I need to go read my scriptures and listen to some happy music and snap out of the funk- I know. But I don't want to. Tomorrow I will- tonight I want to just wallow in self pity. it's lovely.

This weather around here can be enough to bring you down at times. I mean, I love the rain but even I am ready for sunshine and flowers.

I'm sorry that you are homesick. It's tough to be away from family.

Oh Char, I'm so sorry. Especially about the bIadder infection. I've had one before, and they hurt like crazy!

It's so hard being away from home sometimes. It's already tomorrow, so I hope you're feeling better.

I'm sending you my love and prayers. Hang in there sis...we miss you terribly too.

That totally rocked when you surprised everyone (except me) by coming to Payton's bowling party!!! We really thought we were SO sneaky. Good memories...glad you didn't slid off the cliff.

I hope you get feeling better soon, it really stinks to be sick, and homesick at the same time!

I love you!

I hear you, it's sometimes hard to be away from family. I'm sorry that you missed your dad's birthday and I'm sorry that you are sick. Hang in there. March will be here before you know it.
Spring! What a nice thought.

Look at that beautiful pouting face! Ahhh... if I were there I would give you a big hug from your Aunt Debbie! You are a great wife and mother - I hope you get to feeling better soon!

Char, we miss your feet around here too. Now what I really want to know is what did Derek end up doing with his SUPER eyelash? Over the last couple months I developed a rebellious eyebrow hair that was growing really long and curly(I could poke my eye with it). I was trying (unsuccessfully) to hide it by putting gel in my eyebrow to hold it down, but it could not be contained. I plucked it out this morning because I had my yearly review with my boss, and I kind of miss it.

So sorry you are missing us---it's a two way street!
Guess what!? I sent you something in the mail, I've been meaning to send it for a few days...but I've been sick too! It was gonna be a suprise but you sound like you need something to cheer you up. Cheer is in the mail baby!!!

Love you and miss you terribly,Mel

Awww....poor Char.

It could be worse. You could be me. You could be stuck in a foreign country. Your husband could have abandoned you to go hang out in a different country. At least your neighbors speak English. You could have to live with all my kids.

See don't you feel better?

Being away from family is so hard sometimes. I feel your pain.

I totally miss you girl, but remember that you are in the right place at the right time and for that you will be forever blessed. You are one of the most amazing mothers and and amazing wife. You take such good care of your family and they know that. It's good to know that you have days like this, it just makes you human. Hang in there and we do have phones!!! Put on some Martina McBride and make Easton dance with you. I expect to see a video!!!
