It really has been hard to ask for help during this time. Not knowing what else to do I just wanted to "get back to it". And then crash and burn. Another dumb thing is that my boss offered me "get out of jail" days to just go cool my heels with Keri--you know, a mini vacation? NOPE! I thought it would be FAR BETTER to come down with a virus that literally kept me from doing stuff. (but I have my lap top...heh heh heh). Thank you for keeping an eye on me through the webs. It means so much to me.

ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY ARE YOUR BOWELS. Dagnabbit.<br /><br />I suspect both you and your mom are aching to take care of each other, and struggle with guilt that you aren't Superwomen but instead simply ("SIMPLY"? it's never simple and it is rare) super women. It's okay to lean back a little. It might help your mom feel better. And I really hope you get physically better very soon, because I can only imagine how overwhelming all of this is, even for someone as amazing and strong as you. *big love*Valerie Policharhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06235536374093188620noreply@blogger.com
