My Funny....

I don't think this entry is really going to have anything to do with anything but here it goes. Today I find myself missing my funny. When Eli died, it seems that my funny did too and that bums me out. Now, don't get me wrong, I'm not a totally hilarious person or anything like that - you'd certainly never find me doing stand-up. But, I'd like to think that I used to be mildly funny and even if no one else did, at least I amused myself on a fairly regular basis. I realized today that I can't remember the last time I laughed about myself or because of me. Sounds kind of odd, I'm quite sure, but I'd really like my funny back.

I think I've been fairly optimistic through this whole thing and that has helped a lot but it would sure be nice to have my funny back and I would certainly feel much more like the "old" me. I am going to have to learn to love the "new" me because there will be no going back but I'd like to recapture my funny...

On that bizarre note - we have family coming in to town for a few days so I'm not sure how often I'll be able to post something that's well thought out but I will hopefully, at the very least, have some photos to share.

In "my world", I don't think you have lost your funny, although I know that is just my interpretation...but as I recall you have me in stitches when we "talk"...it is all still there, you haven't lost anything, right now it may be hard for you to see because of the new lens you are now looking through in life because of your experience, but you are still the same wonderful, loving, strong, amazing person I knew, and that I know...you have just become MORE of these things through this experience....Love You!

I think your funny is still there, just sitting on a shelf for right now. Waiting. It will come to you when the time is right. Have fun with your family!

I think you've still got it, this entry made me laugh! Maybe I'm just easily amused . . .

Awww Kristi! ***hugs***, your funny will come back to you, probably when you least expect it. I think right now, your "funny" is waiting, for when you need it, because right now your "strength and faith" are what is most needed for you to keep putting one foot in front of the other.

You are such a beautiful person Kristi and someday you may find out what the "BIG" plan is for you and why you are on this path right now.

With much love and admiration for you!
