Connie, please check in

Connie & Margo, Hang in there you two! ((hugs)). My prayers are with you both. My favorite saying "This too shall pass." try to get a little rest in between the chaos. and don't beat yourself up if you slip in your eating...that too will pass once everything settles. You can worry about that later. ((Hugs again!)) Elizabeth M

hugs accepted, appreciated and reciprocated!!!!!!

awww Connie, in case the man never verbalizes his appreciation for you it is there, drowning in grief but still there! hugs to you both!!! margo, you make complete sense...completely did I ever tell you guys how I got my first tattoo??? I was "leaving" driving away from the house, the kids, the dogs, the husband, the bills, and couldn't think of anywhere to go. I had closed the savings account and had like $150 in cash...wow...what is that a tank of gas?? but I could think of anywhere to go, I saw the sign for the tattoo place and thought. . . . . . . "oh THAT sounds like a good idea" and pulled in...40 minutes later I was teh proud owner of a sassy little Tinkerbell tattoo on my right calf...oh and $100 poorer LOL then with endorphins riding high (from pain don't let anyone tell you it doesn't hurt, cause it does...@@) I couldn't wait to show everyone what I did, cause they had always said you will never do it. you aren't strong enough to sit for it...@@ The looks on the faces of my family was so empowering, it made me call for an appointment to find out why I hated my self so much. Do you have EAP thru work or the county or something, that was how I got my first 10 visits for free. hang in there sister! nic
