A nymph (Greek: νύμφη, nymphē) in Greek mythology and in Latin mythology is a minor female nature deity typically associated with a particular location or landform. There are five different types of nymphs, Celestial Nymphs, Water Nymphs, Land Nymphs, Plant Nymphs and Underworld Nymphs. Different from goddesses, nymphs are generally regarded as divine spirits who animate nature, and are usually depicted as beautiful, young nubile maidens who love to dance and sing. They are believed to dwell in mountains and groves, by springs and rivers, and also in trees and in valleys and cool grottoes. Although they would never die of old age nor illness, and could give birth to fully immortal children if mated to a god, they themselves were not necessarily immortal, and could be beholden to death in various forms.

Wow wow wow wow today was so great.

Yummy salads, Starbucks, Barnes and Noble, and amazing conversation with Ash for the better part of the day, then chillin’ out with my sister in law and texting my cousin and Babycakes. It was seriously so needed and I had no clue it would do me so well. I feel alive for the first time in… Shit. Months. My mind feels so clear, it’s amazing.

Ash and I are making it a point to hang out every week, and I already feel myself being like, “Okay. You’ve gotta do this and this to get to Tuesday.” or “Breathe. You’ll be able to get out of the house next week.” Not that I don’t get out of the house or anything like that, I just don’t get out with time for myself. It's always the kids- it’s been that way for four years.

I had the revelation today that I never give myself breaks without the kids because I felt like I had something to prove by deciding to start my family young. I’ve worn myself out, stop taking care of myself, and halted doing things for *me* in a failed attempt to project this image that I’m a decent mother because I only have my parents watch my kids when I’m in the hospital. I thought it was enough to have something for myself once every few months, but selfish more than that. It’s so warped because I am a good mother. As I am now, I am a wonderful mother to my kids. They’re so, so happy, healthy, and loved beyond reason, and I think that’s what matters most. Yet, I’m a try hard. So insane.

But I feel good. I’m in a manic cycle, but I’m not progressing like I normally do. Even Mike said that I was acting better after getting out.

I think I’m going to start writing poetry again. Well, start posting it online. I’m not very good, but does that matter? I want to do this for myself and see what happens.

So much stuff on my mind. Racing thoughts, of course, but for once they aren’t images of my kids dying, so.
