(((((((( self ))))))))))) Thanks. I got a chuckle out of your post, and it is nice to be cared about.

For a while I was thinking about posting about how rotten Mother's Day is because I'm a total failure and I don't deserve for my kids to give me stuff, and say nice things, and all that. But that would just be more of the same - invalidating myself again, wouldn't it? I'd better not do that. I feel that way on and off, but for the moment I have enough clarity not to.
