My heart was hurting for you as I read this. I wish I could come through the computer and give you a hug. I know a friend in Nashville is not the same as a friend next door but please count me in the mix. I really pray for positive things for you and your family in 2013. I know it will be a better one. - BrandyChateau À Gogohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14188912990447693189noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2614048139535089278.post-90091494986655113742013-01-02T18:18:07.796-08:002013-01-02T18:18:07.796-08:00Oh, Lisa.

It...Thank you- I really needed to read this today. It encapsulates my year to a tee. I am in the process of coming to terms with having a special needs kid, and dealing with his school, and just what you stated about leaving the land of 'What I Expected' in terms of my life and my parenting experience. And although I didn't move across the country, this all happened at the same time as I experienced what I'm calling a friend break-up, actually centered around someone I trusted saying some horrible things about that child (judgmental, ignorant) and having to disengage from our main group of friends. And with New Years I have been mulling over how to have hope that 2013 will be better, that the passing of a calendar year somehow means I'm done being kicked in the teeth by the world. But I think I'll take your vision of letting the bad stuff out the door and welcoming in good things. And focusing on the wonderful people I do have in my life, like my hubbie, and my parents, and making new friends.

You deserve a forehead full of gold stars.

It really is one day at a time, and on some days....it's hourly. 2012 was OK..not earth-shattering high or low...until, I skid on ice in my car and now have to deal with car damage.

I think that so often in blogland, we get so caught up in showing the shiny, happy side of things that we forget that life is not always ideal or even good. I always appreciate openness. I've had years like you described. And the upside is that for every rough year, a good year follows. I have confidence that 2013 is the Year of Lisa!That's Ms. Amy to You...http://www.blogger.com/profile/18357451593852423745noreply@blogger.com
