Today has been an eventful day. I have been sticking to the Paleo diet for about 2 weeks now and have lost 4lbs as of Friday night's weigh in. At work today, a lovely volunteer brought me lunch. A pasta dish... Pasta is full of gluten. Not wanting to be rude, I ate about half of it before I had a class come in for a lesson. I brought the remainder home for my husband to eat. What would you have done in that situation?
After work, I got a call from my sister who totalled her car after someone pulled out on her. Both drivers involved were fine, but confused on what to do about the accident so I helped my sister through the process. Then I got a call from my mom. My closest cousin (in age and relationship) had her baby today. A beautiful little girl. On one hand, I am very excited to see my cousin happy and blessed with this little bundle of joy. I can't wait to meet this little girl. I am sure she will be a blessing in my life too. On the other hand, I feel like I lost one of my friends. It's really rather ridiculous, but now my cousin has a baby and I don't her life is going to change to fit that little baby's needs while mine remains relatively the same. My cousin is starting a family while I am getting out of debt and building a business. I am sad to think about how this might change our relationship. We can no longer make last minute plan to do crazy fun things. We can no longer be as spontaneous and crazy. And we have something that we cannot share. Maybe I am over thinking things. I am sure that things will be fine... Do you have any advice for getting through all of your friends having babies while you wait for your blessing?
