Madd and Sadd

I am sad today. I don't know why really. Maybe it is because I didn't sleep well; but that is not unusual. I rarely sleep well. I wake several times every night, but last night was a little different. Not only did I wake frequently but I had trouble getting back to sleep after waking; thus, I did not feel like I slept at all, though I know I did.

Enough of that. I decided the other day that I CAN win the lottery. Not that I will, but I CAN. Why did I come to this? Well, when writing about my late husband, my children's father, getting brain cancer and dying, I remember thinking at the time it happened, "things like this don't happen to me." It was all so surreal, like a movie, only I was in it. The world spun around the day I heard the diagnosis and realized what it meant. And I mean spun around like you see in movies when someone gets some life-changing news. I remember walking up the ramp in the parking garage and everything was spinning around me, just like in the movies. Anyway, apparently "these things" DO happen to me. So, if something bad and sad and life-changing can happen to me and my family, then something good and happy and life-changing can happen to me and my family. I look forward to it.
