You get what you get.....

So I've been pondering for a while about why things happen the way they do. I realize that I can not control the way things will turn out or how people will react to certain situations. However I can control myself, matter of fact it is about the only thing that I can do. Now I know that I haven't always been one to restrain myself in situations that call for a certain amount of tact. However as I've gotten older I realize people don't always want to hear what my husband calls "brutal honesty". Now this can be both good and bad, it all depends on how you take it.
Either way I've toned it down for those of you out there that just can't handle it. (I'm sorry if this causes any immediate heart ache for anyone, but it really is for the best.)
Anyway crazy little things keep happening to me and I wonder if I create my own problems, or if these things just naturally levitate to me because pay back is such a bitch? Either way it doesn't seem to matter if you openly admit that you were wrong and apologize for things, in return I received harsh criticisms. "You people think you can say what ever you want, then apologize for it and everything is fine.... Well its not". Funny, I thought if you offended someone and didn't realize you had and it was brought to your attention that you had offended them, then realizing... OH I can see how that could be taken wrong and apologize for it, that it usually means that you are in fact sorry. I guess for some people it may just be for show, but for me brutal honesty usually comes out and takes first place. I like the truth, so when it comes to me saying I'm sorry I usually don't do it for the show, I really mean it... To bad that for some being mad is easier than just getting over it and being happy with life's lot.
Speaking of life's lot. Things at our household have been interesting. The youngest has been oddly sick for a while. I'm thinking doctor tomorrow, but I'm not sure yet. Well see how tonight goes, but so far I've gotten up more than I've typed.
Brandon is still unemployed, but seems to have enough to keep him busy with the honey-do-list. I'm back on antibiotics for my sinus infection that flared up again, my mouth hurts so dang bad I could scream and to top it off I'm getting a rash from the pills I'm taking so I'm all itchy. Austin is as demanding as ever. We got a boat from Brandon's dad and have been trying to make it nice and all Austin wants to do is go boat fishing. Gavin however could care less... Funny how that goes. Other than that we've been preparing for a yard sale this Saturday. We have so much baby/toddler things that we could fill a store! I hate having all this stuff around that could go to so much better use some where else, it drive's me batty, but soon enough most of it will be gone.
Other than that we're just taking life one day at a time and trying not to offend to many people along the way..

On a good note... Once the boats all fixed up Lake Powell here we come! Oh yeah can't wait to get my feet wet. This picture is us checking out Hite Marine, the water is still way low in the Lake and I'm hoping that when all the snow melts we can get it back up? But who knows??? Maybe California should drink less water, that may help!
