Welcome back. Sorry for all the " yeses " on your checklist.

Hope you will soon decompress/recuperate from the holiday madness.

Lemme add to your list:

Support network: check.

Tools and experience to handle pretty much anything life throws at you: check.

I think you got this!

Thanks guys...

I'm just a little more than low when the hives start acting up... tells me my

internal meter is going bonkers even if I've learned to just " Zen " in stress on

the outside... it's a clear physical indicator that I'm not as Zen-nie as I

thought.

Oh, and my therapist told me that her new bosses have cut my free sessions to

only 5 more (we're going to do 1x a month til July) because Nada still hasn't

had her boob fixed. I am eternally grateful and blessed that Nada's nuttiness

resulted me in getting a free therapist for 2+ years but still... I'm a little

jumpy.

It'll all be OK... I've learned well... but still...

That said, I bought my graduation dress today... hanging it on my door so I can

motivate myself to get through chapters 4 and 5 and be done June 1 and grad in

July.

Lynnette - forward....

Wow, the graduation dress sounds like a great motivator to me! Look at it

every day & remind yourself that you are ok, that you will go forward and

that you have achieved your goals.

Good for you Lynette!

I also think it's kinda cool that you got 2 years of free therapy.

Sometimes when I look at how much I've paid for therapy & antidepressants I

wish I could just send my nada the bill!

Sorry to have to agree, but you are NOT alone!

We were already maxxed out with work and school, then the kids in the hospital

fiasco. My husband and I feel like we've been run over by a steamroller. And

then we start picking at each other, naturally. One funny thing, though, we

both have hearing loss. Me from not being taken to the doc as a baby and him

from heavy equipment operation. We're always getting in fights because we

mis-hear things like old people. It's hysterical sometimes.

Now classes are starting this week. TOO MUCH!!!

Good Luck!
