Do you ever feel like you're in a metaphorical wrestling match with life and you start out by saying, "Bring it!" then find yourself saying, "Uncle! Uncle!!" only moments later?
Do you ever find yourself wanting to smash your alarm clock for waking you up from heavenly, care-free dreams?
Have you ever had one of those days where the only two options are to laugh about it or cry about it, so you just do both?
Does the inside of your belly button ever randomly ache, badly?
Have you ever splurged to buy some serious acne face wash only to have it give your face a chemical burn that looks worse than the pimples?
Do you ever feel like you're collected and strong enough to handle the next curve ball that the Lord pitches to you only to break down when you walk outside into the pouring rain and discover that there is a leak in your car roof which is converting the inside of your car into a swimming pool?
Yeah, never happened to me either. I just thought I would ask out of curiosity.
I have discovered, however, that sugar combined with fat, lemon extract, a dash of poppy seeds, and quality time with the nieces and nephews has the magical ability to make life's troubles momentarily vanish (that is, until the subsequent stomach ache 1/2 hour later).

Yes! I know the feeling. On those rainy days, just remember, "It's not about waiting for the storm to pass, it's about learning to dance in the rain." I would add, Dance Gene Kelly style, swinging an umbrella, splashing in the puddles. :)
Love you!
