Rose needs a break

[Guest guest]

You've no doubt noticed that I've been missing for awhile. The bad news is that I'm just totally overwhelmed, overextended & overwrought. For several months I've been trying to just keep my head above water. Well, I actually lost that battle 2 or 3 weeks ago, but I refused to admit it & just kept gurgling away. The good news is that I have finally admitted to myself, and now, to you, that I have to get away, to dry ground and give myself time to clear my head & clear my "lungs" so that I can breathe again.

I'm going to take a brief (I hope) sabbatical. Maybe a week, maybe longer. I'm not suicidal or anything like that. I'm just mentally & physically & emotionally shot. I apologize for just disappearing without an explanation. I just kept thinking, "Tomorrow I'll sit down & start catching up," and then tomorrow something would push it aside.

I am so sorry to let you all down at this time, but I just can't do it right now. I forwarded info about a Sarc Retreat in Indy next weekend. I don't want to have something else to arrange & allow time for, but I probably need it right now.

Would you please explain to the group, or just send them this message? You all are still, and always, in my thoughts & prayers. Love, Rosie

No worries gang, Rose will be back once she gets some wind back into her sails. In the meantime, Debbie, and I will be here to answer your questions and concerns.

Ron and Marla and are all available for the chats-- and all have so very much to share.

Please keep Rose, Darlene and Kim in your prayers and thoughts. (As well as the rest of us.) Know that we too are sick, and will get to your posts as quickly as possible, and as soon as we can-- we'll all be "tag-teaming" this thing again.

Love to us all,
