Hay there, sweet Farmgirl Sisters,
I have been in a dark place lately....confused....out of sorts....wondering.....whatever you want to call it. I have not been on my computer so have not checked in on emails or here on MJF. I have not completed a few swaps and have disappointed several of you. I am hoping that I have made a turn and can get back to a better ME !!! Ya'll are my inspiration, my family, and I am disappointed in myself for disappointing ya'll. I am trying to finish all my swaps and clear my desk of many issues. I need to keep moving forward so I can stay out of the dark. I am so very sorry.
Today is a new day !!!
Hugs and prayers, Daizy #1093

Daisy I got my arms around you and I am praying that you will feel the Lord's arms around you too.
I've been where you have been and where you are now. One of the things I learned after going through darkness and coming out on the other side is that it did me no good to dwell on it.
Yes, take stock of what happen & scream at it if you want to; the time that has gone by; how it affected you; but then let it go! Let it go so you can breath in the light and live in the here & now.
Think on your blessings and work on what needs to be changed. All the while love yourself ~~~ yes love yourself and be good to you. Part of healing is accepting you ~~~ the entire you ~~~ halos & warts ~~~ once you accept you and embrace her you are then and only then are you on the road to recovery.
May the Lord bless & keep you. May you feel the love and understanding of all your FarmGirl friends. We ~me~ are here for you.
Have a blessed day, Sara

Oh Sweet Miss Daizy! I think many of us can empathize! I have finally learned that when I start to "shut down" and not want o correspond to my e-mails or on MJF, I need to get on here even more often!!! But that is just me. Know that I too am wrapping my arms around you lovingly and will be praying for you!

Daizy, we've all been there! We always judge ourselves the hardest don't we? You know all of us here are a forgiving and loving bunch. :) I got your thank you card a little while ago, and it really brightened my day! I'll be praying for you as well. You couldn't be in better company for support than here.

Hi Daizy, Whatever your troubles are remind yourself now and again that everything changes sooner or later. That every new day is full of potential for a million blessings. That you have a barnyard full of sister chicks who send love and prayers. That you are beautiful and perfect just the way God made you! {{Hugs!}}

Daizy, I'm so glad to hear from you! Coming back from the other side is such a breath of fresh air! Hugs! Have been there and back many times over the years.
I'm now wondering if I may join the Poor House Chapter? I will send you my info.
Take good care of yourself, dear sister.

Daizy, I too can empathize! I'm in a similar spot now and it is difficult! Life has a way of throwing so many "hiccups" in the way, but I'm trying to grow in God's grace and respond as He would have me to . . . learning the lessons he has for me along the way.
Hang in there . . praying for you!

Recognizing what is going on/ awareness of the problem puts you well ahead in terms of finding solutions. I hope things are going well.
I am off on a major journey to a wellness-related I hate to say resort, but spa sounds just as bad and camp sounds like the beginning of a cheesy horror movie. Two weeks away from home and family in hopes of jump starting a leap out of what I consider to be the category of "Well That's Just Life" in terms of family stress, marital stress, cortisol toxic soup, menopause assault on the body, etc. Pretty much what life hands all of us, right? I know I am beyond blessed to have this opportunity, and I plan to make the very most of it.
If I get any wonderful insights into how handle all this stuff, trust me - I'll be sharing!
