celebration

I figure if you learn something from the stupid shit you do then it's not quite as stupid. After the wonderful supper gathering yesterday and today's fantastic family fun party, I felt the need to punish myself some for enjoying myself totally selfishly. It seems I still have some parts that don't agree that I deserve this wondrous group of people that are my family, near and far. I however know that's not true and I deserve their nuttiness as much as they deserve mine. It was good information though that I still have work to do on that, so this is my commitment to address it as I go. I like that I figured out why I was stuffing myself with things I don't even really like, and while I was absolutely out of control, I no longer am. So worth it!

I had so much fun playing and visiting and eating and looking at some great pics afterwards. Thank you all for being who you are. I am truly blessed!

Love, elly
