"One can't believe impossible things," Alice said. "I daresay you haven't had much practice," said the Queen. "When I was your age, I always did it for half an hour a day. Why, sometimes I've believed as many as 6 impossible things before breakfast."
From Alice in Wonderland
(I have no idea where this post is going to go so let's see what happens. I usually have set points I want to make but this is all straight from the heart and off the top of the head...LOL)
Ever have a quote that just seemed to grab hold of you and not let go until you "got it?" Well, that's what this one did!!! It's been rolling around in my head for years.
I've always thought it odd but somewhere in my heart of hearts it seemed to make sense that impossible things could happen. This year has been about me seeing this concept in action...that is actually being able to recover from all of the mistakes that I made. And while there still is nothing concrete (no real job, place of my own, etc., etc., etc.- you know the ME mantra) I can tell that it's all about to bust open. WHY? HOW? Don't have a clue. All I know is that everyday I wake up almost giddy thinking about how good things are going to be. And after I say my prayers I say out loud, "Today something that I really want to happen is going to happen." And you know what? It does!!! Honest to God!!! The first time I said it I got a totally unexpected phone call from my oldest cub's school letting me know that he had earned a spot in the Honors class. Sure I had brought up the subject with the school but from what they told me there wasn't much hope because the classes were full. And then the phone call.
It blew my mind!!! And it keeps happening like that every single day. 
So anyway, I've changed my icon to reflect some of the changes that are going on in ME. (don't have a clue about this either but it's all good!!!) 
I think I'll be changing my Blog title again too. Remember, "40+...I should something something something" (I've forgotten that silly name) to "The Restoration of ME" to who knows what. Stay tuned I promise you the next one is going to be awesome!!!
My first girl was a symbol of strength for me. It was me getting stronger and stronger. But as you can see this new girl isn't as serious. To the contrary, she's quite lighthearted and fun loving (or at least that's what I see).
And while I do still have days when my whole world is held together with a wish and a prayer 
I also seem to have this smile right under the surface that's just begging to appear on my face.
But like I said, don't ask.
Either I've truly turned a corner or the guys in the white coats are coming any minute. 
Either way, I'll leave you with another quote that's really speaking to me. Today, I hope that all of you have possibilities that are giving you goosebumps.
When was the last time your possibilities gave you goose bumps?
