Expectations

Expectations are so dangerous. Usually, they come from somewhere within, with a questionable motive. Generally, the higher the expectation, the bigger the disappointment.

Tonight I am feeling disappointment, and I can't quite put my finger on what is driving it.

Is it because my expectations were too high, or is it because my friends let me down?

I guess a little of both.

It feels really yucky inside.

But I am home now, in front of my tree, the kids are in the living room (watching tv,ugh), my house is warm, the snow and the candles outside are beautiful, and tomorrow will bring another snow storm...a day to be at home, snuggle in and be with family.

Sometimes, I need to remind myself that these are the things that matter.
