The Forsberg Family

I started writing this blog, who knows when. But when I did, I felt like I put more of myself out there. I mean, I did have boundaries, but I talked about a lot more previously then now. And why? I see people who post more on the Internet than they tell their own families. All their personal problems not to be discussed by those closest to them, but to be posted on statuses for sympathy. And I? I have locked myself up. Not to be a thing of the Internet, unless I put myself there. But that is what this blog is about. ME! Duh! So why wouldn't I post things about me and my family. My good fortunes. My sad times. Mad things. Grand achievements. Failures. Personal and all. Now don't get me wrong. This IS the Internet. I'm not going to write TMI. And I won't write some of what I REALLY feel. I mean, let's face it. I am going to filter. Honesty. That's what I will post. ME. Glimpses of it. And honestly, here I go. Let's talk. Stay-at-home Mom...

Being exhausted and just focusing on feeding, I had no energy to change the channel. By choosing to not change the channel, it was like I was reliving 9/11 all over again. I remember when the event first happened. I was about to go to Junior High when my mom called. She sounded flustered, worried. Didn't want for me to be afraid, but told me to turn the television on. Plastered all over the news was the devastating revelation of what just happened. The twin towers smoking. People jumping out of the building because what else could they do. This was playing on the channel. I was absorbed into it all over again. What a sad day. All...

I have started a new blog. 2? You can't even keep up one!  Yeah yeah! I know.  Sometimes I get these "AH-HA!" moments. I've had a few in the past month or so.  And so I will be keeping THIS blog, to discuss my life and random thoughts.  The other blog? My journey on becoming healthy. Feel free to visit! I needed this other blog to hold myself accountable for my health and the change that I'm making my little family go through. It will be fun! Anyhoo... I thought I would share a few of my mind blowing moments with you. I recently traveled to Idaho to go to a wedding. It was tough, but ended up bring my hubby and I closer. Which in the end, is all we care about. But while there, I had been having a tough time and have an amazingly, freaking awesome BIL.  He talked about how he works (he's a farmer and can work LONG hours) and his  wife stays home and does house work and makes dinner. He said that because he works and is the sole bre...
