I do it all the time. I went away when the girls were younger. They got a away with things when dad was in charge.. or should I say "they" were in charge. I think so. Even last weekend, at Art is You, I had a nice list of groceries for hubbie to get.. did he get them?NOOOOO! I hoped my fridge would have been full when I got home. I love Rachel Dratch as Debbie Downer. I've learned to let things go now as I get older. Have to pick your battles. You want to be happy or do you want to be right? Love your page and I went on too long.

She wa...Oh my gosh, I was raised by Debbie Downers. She was so funny on SNL!!!.. Oh, but negativity reigned while I was a kid, and we were all just suffocated in it! Still to this day, that kind of thinking is hard to erase, and I have to be very conscious not to act the same way. If I catch myself saying something negative, I try to look on the bright side, and as best I can counteract it with a compliment, a joke, or anything positive I can come up with. And at the end of a day, I try to remember and/or journal my blessings.. thanking God for the many He brings me. In the right and proper perspective, it really isn't so very hard, I don't think, to keep positive and on the bright side of life! Great post!..
