Sorry I missed you Jersey (and Sconnie and Pbutton). Pbutton, I'm sorry about your mom emailing. You are right, her guilt (or shame) is hers alone to own. I know it's still hard though. Breathe, or kick something if it makes you feel better.

I got a second wind and straightened up some more. The main things left to do are to clean the birdcage (and the bird himself), finish the laundry, and remove all the curtains from the windows. At least we know tomorrow night, if we have to stay up all night to finish, we can, but I don't anticipate it. Neither of us are working Wednesday.

I have T tomorrow afternoon at 4:00, don't know exactly how that's going to go down with doing the shame exercises, but we'll see. As each "topic" comes up, certain ones are going to be really hard and embarrassing for me to talk about. I hope I can. At least I get to ease into it a bit; the first area is appearance and body image. I don't really have a problem with how I look except that I think I'm currently carrying too much weight in my stomach.

I hope everyone has a great night/day depending on what part of this wonderful world you live in.
