Lola - sorry your w isn't more supportive of the job thing. You do deserve to be happy in everything including your job. healed i hope you feel better soon! strep sucks. one of my friends at work has had it twice in the last month or so and now it has mutated into some mysterious virus and he's out of work again. He's apparently become immune to antibiotics. mcac sending good thoughts for you and daughter. critter is there at least anything interesting to look at during the long drive to do the presentation? That's about all my feeble brain can remember for now. i am determined to get caught up this weekend. doing a pile of laundry and working on 2 baby afghans for friends at work so I am not leaving the house this weekend LOL I'll be back in a little bit when I take another break to catch up some more! thanks for the support about my h lastnight being so "i don't care" about my poem. I'm learning how to FEEL my feelings now and part of that work is sharing those feelings with others instead of fighting them and internalizing them into tears. that's what makes PC so great IMHO. back later!
