Unnecessarily worried!  I think and worry about things out of my control.<br \/>Oh dear&#8230; I think I am becoming Sanj!  Yikes&#8230; there is only room for one of us in this household!<\/p>\n<p>Worried?  Contemplating? Reflecting?  Hum&#8230; not sure what the actual word is but is it too much to ask for PEACE OF MIND?<\/p>\n<p>I worry about the future&#8230; what will my kids be like?  How do I shape them into fine young men?  I worry about growing old.<br \/>I am not scared of it&#8230; but rather intrigued.  I want to be a &#8220;cool&#8221; senior citizen.  Yes, I actually have thought this through!<\/p>\n<p>I worry about my hands.  They seem too old.  Plus they are pudgy.  I worry about not wearing a ring.  I really have no desire to wear one, as I think it is annoying.  I play with it and just don&#8217;t like the feeling of something on me all the time.  Yet I do like Sanj to wear a ring.  Double standard&#8230; Yah I know.  But it works for me.<\/p>\n<p>Now I worry about the heel on my feet.  They are starting to feel really rough.  I don&#8217;t like that.  I probably need a pedicure&#8230; for them to use that scrapee thing on my heel.  Never needed that before!  Ugg.<\/p>\n<p>I worry about what MY children will be dysfunctional about.  What aspect(s) about my parenting will they hold against me?<\/p>\n<p>What will our relationship be like as adults?  Will any of them stop talking to me? <\/p>\n<p>How is Sammy going to wake up for high school (8:05 or something) start when he can not handle being at school for 8:45 a.m.?<\/p>\n<p>Am I really ready to deal with the reality that next year I will have all school going kids?<\/p>\n<p>Am I beginning menopause?   Hot flashes&#8230; are they really that bad?<\/p>\n<p>Ahhh worries&#8230;  these are just my petty worries&#8230; then there are the ones I lose sleep over!<\/p>\n<p>Wanted:  Peace of Mind!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Wanted: Peace of MInd!
