My Pillow

I haven't been blogging for weeks now because I'm trying to find something, ANYTHING to be grateful for.  Sure, I could post the standards...my kids, my husband, my health.  We are all grateful for those things.  We should be.  But right now I'm simply overwhelmed. My life is changing.  I hate change, and I'm having a hard time feeling grateful for anything....even the things I should be grateful for.  I want an "easy" button, a fast forward remote or even hyper-sleep to get through the next few months.  I just don't want to be here for this and I'd be ever so grateful if Mr. Scott could just "beam me up."  I guess I watched too much TV as a kid, huh?  Well, I guess I can be grateful for my pillow.  It doesn't judge.  It's there for me every night.  It doesn't even mind those nights when I soak it with tears because I've cried myself to sleep.  See?  Even in sorrow we can find gratitude!
