Ah….. a normal life….. It can be such a wonderful feeling sometimes to just take it easy and not to anything to out-of-the norm. I know for me I prefer when things are just that way.

Beautiful post. I went (and am going through) a similar situation. The whirlwind of school + work + back in November, Husband had a bad withdrawal reaction from his medicine for ADHD. He took it a couple times a week, but then he stopped taking it completely, and went through a withdrawal phase. HORRIBLE withdrawals. He’s still going through it, but it’s one hundred times better than it was. That + the dreary weather wasn’t putting him in a good place, and he was going to bed at 7 or 8 at night and not waking up until late. I saw him cry for the first time EVER that month. It was putting me in a bad place, too, because that’s what love does—it makes you one. I felt his pain, it was scary, and it was hard to help him out of it, but we managed. Now, things are looking up, and it feels nice. Thanks for writing this, lovely. I adore the idea of sticking little reminders to relax in your planner. .-= Megan´s last blog ..Getting to Know SV: My Week =-.

Oh, I enjoyed reading this post! I appreciate your honesty and the beautiful writing…

I’m so glad that things are better with Mister… All relationships go through hills and valleys, and even though we all know this, it doesn’t make the hard times any easier, does it?

Wishing you a wonderful semester and all the time to be able to enjoy the simple things in life we all need and crave!
