Those pictures are pretty awesome. <br /><br />I've learned that the only person judging/staring at me is me. No one else really cares unless my boobs are hanging out or I walk around without pants.

Seriously.<br /><br />We met last night at BOLO and my first thought was: this woman has the most amazing smile and I hope she wants to be my friend (can you figure out my neurosis?).<br /> <br />I love this post, especially when you wrote about lying on the couch listening to the breathing of your loved ones. I can relate to those moments when things feel crazy and then you just zone in one on thing that makes everything feel ok (or at least bearable).<br /><br />Great post, and I will keep reading!Ninja Momhttp://Ninjamom.canoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102491209284064200.post-80249220876065666432010-07-07T18:45:46.297-07:002010-07-07T18:45:46.297-07:00Yes, I was expecting a photo of you!

Great post...honestly though, it's not you, it's cottages, it's the wilderness, it's peeing in the woods. I'm all about my own bed with the bathroom three feet away, so don't feel self-conscious, but know you are in good company, there are others out there like you. We're kind of like our own band of vampires...only we eat chocolate and drink vodka.

I often am anxious about spending time in a house cooped up with family and for the most part it usually turns out ok.I'm sure you created wonderful memories with your hubby and kids. Sometimes, drinking heavily during those occasions helps...unless I drink too heavily! And to let you know, I think you look fabulous just the way you are...we are who we are inside, and anyone who judges us by our outward appearances aren't worth our time, so there!!!

And B&Bs (because really, it's just sleeping at another person's house with nicer linens). I am not as big on the face-washing, but I am big on not having to see other people if I don't want to, outside of my immediate family. I need my space, people.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2102491209284064200.post-72423531736589832122010-07-06T10:21:11.242-07:002010-07-06T10:21:11.242-07:00That is it I am coming to Ottawa and giving you a ...That is it I am coming to Ottawa and giving you a hug. I drive a silver Echo, be looking for me. As someone who is familiar with self-consciousness (I had a bad perm in grade 8 which forever makes me self-conscious despite the fact that I now have lovely hair) I have found that pretty much everyone else is also self-conscious and could give a shit what you look like or what you are wearing. Having discovered this my life is now awesome.

Amazing how many of our limitations are set by our own fears and idiosyncrasies, not by other people imposing them on us.<br /><br />Glad you were able to stay at the cottage.
