I am laughing like a loonatic right now, only because I can totally relate. I think of stuff like that way to often, post partum or not, it makes my husband crazy!

The bear incident happened last summer when Karen was camping with us(I think she wrote a post about it) and kept herself up all night worried about a bear attacking her and her family. I was in an RV dealing with mice. I couldn't sleep because I kept thinking they were going to crawl on me and my child. Anyway, Karen, you probably have a rash from the sun. Please don't stay up all night thinking you have scabies. I was only kidding (which I'm sure you know). Also, you can't live life worrying about what may happen to you. When things happen, if they do, you aren't sitting in bed expecting it. My mom always said, don't worry about things you don't have control over. love you, mMichelehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04388854976158590592noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30518121.post-45146268688928170902008-07-01T08:23:00.000-07:002008-07-01T08:23:00.000-07:00So curious about the bear/camping incident.

Do we have to take you out to the back and put you out of your misery like Old Yeller?<BR/><BR/>Ok, I always have crazy thoughts after I've watched a suspenseful movie. I don't think you have to check into the funny farm for that one. <BR/><BR/>I do know what you mean though about being in awe of how great your life is and waiting for the other shoe to drop. I think it has to do with the fact that some of the people around us have been delivered some really hard trials lately. I know when I hear of other people's "stuff" I just feel so much compassion for them and their situation and I think, "how did I get so lucky because I'm doing well." Again, all totally normal and I don't think we'll have to call Megan's mom for an intervention.<BR/><BR/>Hang in there!::lindsayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04549056510050649382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30518121.post-11795782367645450122008-07-01T07:07:00.000-07:002008-07-01T07:07:00.000-07:00When I had gone 11 yrs. in between having children...When I had gone 11 yrs. in between having children, I really had forgotten those lonely long nights.<BR/>It made me feel so out of control. <BR/><BR/>We love you Karen.

I've had similar thoughts, and fretted over things in the middle of the night until I couldn't sleep. After Morgan was born I went through a bad patch where I felt extremely guilty about not spending as much time with Kendle and would go to bed crying about it. Totally NOT like me. Good news is it does get better, and something funny to read or watch before bed always helps.Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10004387896665020980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30518121.post-53413032080407098132008-06-30T21:54:00.000-07:002008-06-30T21:54:00.000-07:00It's all completely normal.

Your thoughts are a combination of exhaustion (and it's probably going to get worse before it gets better) and a motherly, overwhelming need to protect your family. The one armed man just happened to be who was on your mind that night, but anything scary would have done it. The responsibility I always feel when my family expands is overwhelming. Here I am sounding like I know what I'm talking about and of course I probably don't, but you're doing great.Debie Spurgeonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01570599704272449834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30518121.post-47397891077623303762008-06-30T21:29:00.000-07:002008-06-30T21:29:00.000-07:00I seem to recall a BEAR/camping incident that was ...I seem to recall a BEAR/camping incident that was somewhat similar.
