choosing the right words

Reading back through my blog (not always a very good thing to do), I see the words tired, overwhelmed, confused, unprepared, disorganized, and incompetent. I used these words to describe some of my feelings/thoughts during my care giving journey. They should be gone from my life, but they are not. I still feel them all. Not all the time, not every day, but when they hit - they hit hard. Sometimes, they are related to the journey with my dad, other times they are not. But I think it's all cumulative, and that is definitely overwhelming.

Reading back through my blog, I also find the words grateful, pleased, comforted, rested, happy, creative, peaceful, funny, sweet. I'm going to concentrate on these last ones for awhile.
