My mother called it Emotional Incontinence
That is when you cry because you are overwhelmed or exhausted or both.
Folks say...why are you crying...and you say...I do not know.
Upcoming is the St Paddy's Day I always loved.
I do not love it any more.
Now, I hate it.
All I can think of is my wonderful Irish man, Mr. O'Quilts, I can almost not bear it.
Easter....I do not like that any more either.
My man died on Easter...upcoming 4 years ago.
I am stymied...Sorrow keeps me from sewing.
I am stuck
Just for today, I am stuck
Always grateful for the morning light.
To help me out in this constant struggle for re-framing my identity..is::
Women Rowing North by Mary Pipher.
She is one of my favorite authors.. of self help books...
Helping with the identity and changes of women growing older..
I have read one chapter and I feel better already.
So working on self care.
ps I have decided that self-care means spending a million dollars
for the Kaffe Fassett quilting workshops in the fall...here in Charlotte...Wahoo.

Emotional Incontinence! Well, I guess I know exactly what that consists of. Sigh. M would say: Suck it up Buttercup. That tough Vermonter Blood flows thick and strong!
ReplyDeletePut on some good music. Sometimes if fills the gaps in my soul when all else fails. Or just stroke some favorite fabric and dream a little. (or a lot!)
