Deilla, I'm glad your mom accepted your apology. I hope you two are able to work out a stronger relationship.

I'm sorry you feel overwhelmed today. Your coping skills sound really soothing and helpful. I miss iced coffees. I love warm coffees, too, so I make those. I keep forgetting to get an ice cube tray so that I can use distilled water to make ice cubes for things like that. I don't trust the tap water that comes into the freezer to make ice cubes. I'm weird.
