When I started this blog, I thought about a name that would convey my day to day life. Marriage, kids, and just my day to day speed of 90 mph to nothing and stopping at nothing to slow down. I wanted a way to acknowledge through words that I was happy, I am married, and that despite those two, life can be overwhelming. That despite happiness, a great spouse, kids, a house, a good job, that life can still be a LOT for us to deal with. When I wrote it, I never thought that one day, my overwhelmed would be cancer. I never thought about the definition of that word and the importance that one day it would mean to this blog. Through the time here, it has seen lots of fun posts, but it has seen lots of serious ones, too. Parenting, marriage, jobs, sad events, good events, diets (YUCK), medical issues, and more. I’ve got more drafts in my folders than I know what to do with and sometimes, my inner filter kicks in and says, “Nope, don’t post that one.”

Then, I have those days where Jesus pokes at me and says, “Yep, post that one today.” THOSE are the days I really dislike posting and I LOVE to argue with Him. Today, I guess, is one of those days.
