    Sheila - I am always up around 6:00 - 6:30am.  I have a dog that makes sure of that and the fact I like to give myself plenty of time to try and wake up before I have to go to work.

    Since it is officially whine & rant day - I don't want to be at work - don't want to look at her, let alone have to talk to her today.

    Done for now!  Whew - I feel better.

    I sat down to my computer and heard some whining...found out it was coming from here.  There's a lot I could whine about right now, but I am afraid that once I start, I won't be able to fit it all into just one 24-hour time period.  Let me just say that I am getting overwhelmed by the many, many little things that are chipping away at the quality of my life; and it's the old one step forward, two steps back in many cases.  I'll keep struggling for improvement and hope things will take a good turn, but I am getting tired.

    Besides that, Seyla,your pic of those trees on the last page reminds me of my front yard before my willow tree went bad and had to come down.

    Everybody needs something from me.Yell

    i just don't want to do it anymore.

    I need myself. I'm hardly sleeping.

    Why people including loved ones always have a question or something they need.

    I don't mind. But this is becoming a way of life and I'm stressed out.

    Thank You for listening.

    (((Shelia)))  If it isn't one thing, it's another Yell  Please be careful though cause it looks like you might strain something if you keep scrunched up like like for much longer...

    welsome gaybar.....we are too like this all the time if one means kinda silly:)

    Sheila, Jo and Sandee......................hugs and you can whine with me anytime

    I had whined for 20 minutes solid to the husband on the phone today crying my eyes out- took a deep breath and whined a little more...

    annette - I certainly hope tomorrow is a much better day.  I couldn't take another day like today.  Too stressful and overwhelming.

    Love & Hugs to everyone.

    wa                     h (lil whine there)

    It was a stressful day-it has been building and Jo, I truly understand the anger over feeling deceived by your employee...I give so much to everyone that works for me-across the board-interns and full timers and yet....well, let's just say if a building was burning I better haul my own &ss out of there hahaha...just feel tired and overwhelmed. OK- that's it for now. I am going inthe tub- bubbles- a book and the jets turned on....I have a ton I should do tonight but this is somehow more important.

    Care of ourselves. Hard concept to grasp sometimes. It is why they tell you on a plane if oxygen is required and you have children or others depending on you for YOU to take the oxygen first...can't help anyone else if you are passed out.... 

    ANOTHER BIG HUG TO ALL OF YOU..;

    Sheila- I truly appreciate your being able to articulate so clearly how you were feeling...you are a special one, my friend:)
