T'Mahk Too - Comments on *poke poke* ... is she in there? http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000682.html Sorry, I guess I was spaced out, there. Here I was wondering why I'm pretty much only getting spam, and it turns out it's cause I haven't posted. It's a rare at-a-loss-for-words moment. Oh, that that I'm really at a... en-gb Wed, 25 Apr 2007 16:36:11 -0500 Mon, 18 Aug 2008 21:50:26 -0500 http://www.movabletype.org/?v=4.1 kim@andfam.net 180 By kelly hey, if repeating yourself helps then go for it ;o) I know what you mean, not knowing how to respond to "how are you doing"... I never know how to answer that question either, even going through SMALL problems like Daniel's boss leaving unexpectedly... much less big ones. Sigh. I remember feeling bad for not feeling "bad enough" when Scott died. It sure is confusing, even WITHOUT having to provide a day by day "honest evaluation" of your condition. I usually answer "I think I'm still in shock" to all but my closest friends, because that excuses both the tears and the lack-of-tears, at least until most people quit asking me, and it doesn't sound as super-holy as "walking in faith" ... hee hee, I hate sounding super-holy, I hope that doesn't count against me in Heaven. :o) http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000682.html#c50071 50071:682@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ hey, if repeating yourself helps then go for it ;o)

After my last one (the one that happened at 17 weeks) my SIL, thinking that she was helping, told EVERYONE about it, and then everyone proceeded to call my house, day and night. Which was, you know....nice and all. But...I really just kind of wanted to wallow in peace for a little while without having to tell someone every five minutes that I was fine, kwim? And I remember being so sad that Jared was not going to be three years old when we had another baby (it turns out that he WAS still three, because I got pregnant with Lukey the next month, but at the time I was sure that he would be at least four before we were blessed again.) I have no idea why that was a big deal to me. I guess I just wanted them closer together, but at the time it was a very sad thought that he might be four. Odd the things that bother us, isn't it? You know...maybe I would blog more often if I did not write blog-length comments on everyone elses blogs. LOL. Anyway...still praying! :o) http://andfam.net/kimblog/archives/000682.html#c50289 50289:682@http://andfam.net/kimblog/ I never knew how to respond to people after my miscarriages, either.
