The heavenly butter for my soul

Damn, my gums still ache like mad. I hate this sensation. I think pain like this is so evil it brings out the devil in people. It sure drops me to some of my lowest moods. Yes, I'm in a very foul mood today. What with this stupid pain in my mouth, the car which went down again in the morning when hubby was about to send the girls to school, that car has been down with this and that for hundreds of times these last few years it just breaks me down too.

Then again, let me rearrange my thoughts.......okay, it's not that bad. People have had worse. I've been challenged with so much these last few years, so many times I really feel like just letting go, give up, it's to difficult. Then, look at the kids, my baby boy, so full of life. How can I let go, let them down? Then, I remember something which my hubby told me few weeks ago. It was of an accident which happened the first day of school after the one week of Eid break. It happened right in front of my second daughter's school minutes right after my hubby dropped her. My third daughter was still in the car and she saw what happened. The accident happened mere minutes before my hubby was there. A dad riding on his bike with two of his young daughters, on the way to send them to school. One of the girls is in Year 6, same as my third daughter, and they go to the same school. The Dad's bike was hit by a school van, driven by one woman in early forties. The man went under the van and my hubby thinks he died there and then. Either that or he died on the way to the hospital. But he died. The bike went into the drain. The two girls were on the road bleeding. It was later found out that the two girls broke some of their limbs, one broke her leg, the other broke her hand. It was tragic. It happen every day to people every where in the world. What I've been facing pale compared to such sad accidents.

Okay, back to the title of this entry. I bought this butter last night at Tesco. It tastes heavenly. So soft and salty, I would love to have it saltier, but it's not so bad. I've always wanted to buy spreadable fat but always forgot. I usually look for the expiry date of food stuff I buy. Forgot to do that yesterday. Hubby just pointed this out to me late last night around 11 plus when I was enjoying my late supper with butter on biscuit. I was not eating the biscuit, I was eating butter.




So, the due date for this butter is 13th September 2015, 6 days from today. My mission is to finish it by then then. I've already done devouring a quarter of that so finishing it in 5 days won't be a problem. I'll just spread the vegetable fat on my hurting soul day after day till it's gone.
