What's the #1 Rule in Life??

Growing up, my mom always asked my sister and I, "What's the #1 rule in life??" We promptly responded, "Life is not fair". (The answer was drilled into us). Unfortunately, thats only become more apparent the older I've gotten.

This has been one of those weeks where I feel that life has dealt me a bad hand. Don't get me wrong, I love Katelyn, but raising a daughter alone is hard work. It requires being on-call 24/7 and there is no one else responsible but you. People offer to help along the way, but in the end its your responsibility to make it happen. There are no second chances. There is a reason why biologically it takes two people to create a child. It really does take at least two financially, emotionally, and physically to keep one another afloat and do the job well.

Luckily, I've been able to channel my frustrations this week into unpacking and cleaning. Almost unpacked and the whole house has been cleaned every night before I go to bed. My goal for now is to keep the things I have control over in my life going well. That's all I can do. Everything else is just hoping for the best.

That's all for now.
