I'd hang around induction for awhile...certainly long enough to get that rush of energy. I think that energetic feeling will help you out mentally. I lost some of that energy in OWL. Please know we're all here to support you. I feel so bad that YOU feel so bad! The saddest thing about our economy right now is....it seems to be hurting the innocents more than the guilty! That's horribly unfair and such a big part of life. I've been through a decade of sorrow and let me tell you...I made a choice at Christmas. I decided this time was the last time. I was going back to this WOE because no matter what else was thrown at me....me taking care of me was absolutely the only thing I could control in this world. No one else was going to do for me and it was up to me, period! That line of thinking has kept me on track. On my worst days, I know the most important thing I'm doing is taking care of myself. In years past, I've lost a miserable marriage,
is how I feel about that now but not at the time, I've lost my father to a horrendous massive brain tumor, still the torture of my soul--that experience, my beloved grandma before Christmas, almost all family pets met a tragic sudden end with cancer, I lost the love of my life on Christmas Eve.... I've dealt with a mother with not one, but two broken hips that were life altering, oh, a tornado, Mom's car accident, her broken arm from falling because of the cat, my two back surgeries from an auto accident in 1995, learning to walk again several times.... When I gave birth, I birthed a BIG BOY weighing in at 13lbs 11 oz on top of a back injury. The list could go on but I'll stop. Many of those challenges could've been met so much easier had I been taking care of myself all along. I wasn't. However, the truth is we can't unring a bell. The time is now. We're here. We move on with the world or the world moves on without us. You're in the right place at the right time with the right people. Stick around...and welcome back!
We're here for you...and we need you be here for us!!
