Dear Past Me

 

          I wish I could tell past me not to care about what others say about me. I listened to their lies way too much. They told me I was overweight, so I believed them. Looking back at pictures from back then, I was in no way overweight. I was a normal healthy girl who got her boobs before anybody else LOL. I thought everybody was talking about me or laughing at me. How self absorbed, most people could care less about others. They have their own issues they are dealing with, but I assumed that if they were laughing or talking, it was about ridiculing me. So I because even more introverted. It took me decades to figure out they did not care enough about me to think or talk about me that much. It was all in my head, but it affected me way into adulthood. I am trying to help my daughter not fall into that trap.

          Well, I have Spring Fever and unfortunately instead of being able to go outside, I have to work. Hopefully it will go by quickly and uneventfully. I accomplished a lot this week and would like to continue to do so. My kids might be moving my daughter into her room this weekend, so I will see how that goes. I might be able to re-arrange my room afterwards and redecorate hers LOL. That is always fun.
