~ Exhausted ~

Yes, yes I am both physically and mentally exhausted.  The past week is like a blur.  Running here and there, working, trying to keep my head on straight.  Today was the first time in what seems like an eternity that I left work and came home.  So much was calling my name but instead I crawled in bed and took a nap.  LOL  I did wake up feeling better.  All the other things can wait...  ya know?

 

My sister did come home today.  YEAH!!!!   The events of the day took a toll but she is home resting in her house.  That in itself will make her feel better.  I know being home with just her family was a good thing.  No poking and prodding, or constant interruptions.  A nice restful night at home.  Continued prayers, good thoughts, and candles being lit are so appreciated.  I do thank you for all you've done.  The good words, prayers, thoughts, private emails, being there for me, and most of all understanding my sporadic comments and/or visits.  I've tried to keep up, but I failed miserably and I'm sorry.  I will get back on track soon. 

 

Going to cut this short, but wanted to give you just a little update.  I can't believe it's Friday already!!  Hope you're all good and enjoying your week.

Hi Donna,

I'm so happy to hear your dear sister got to go back home.  I'm sure that did her heart good to just be able to sleep in her own bed, and not have the constant interruptions one has in a hospital.  I hope her pain is under control and that she's feeling much better.  You need to try to get more rest too, lady!  I hope you have a wonderful, quiet weekend.

Take Care,
~Bilinda~

Donna .......please do not apologise........ anyone with any compassion would understand............ those who do not ,do not deserve to be part of your blogging audience.

I am so very happy that your sister is home, there is nothing like the comfort of your own home when you do not feel well..... so hopefully she is feeling better already.

Off to give thanks ...take care, have a wonderful weekend

Yes!  I love that your sister has made it home ~ there is no place like home and your family nearby!  Just getting out of the hospital will make her feel tons better!  Donna, please try and get some rest!!!  Am sure it has taken a bigger toll on you than you're aware!  Hugs, Carla

You took a nap?  Good for you.  Maybe thats what I need.  Seems all of J-land could use a NAP!  We're all overwhelmed.   I'm blaming it on the change of weather.  :)

I feel the same as you, physically and mentally tired that is. I'm not feeling like a woman :o)
Although sometimes I do wonder what it would be like to have boobs.

Hang in there, D.  Put AOL on hold.  No one should blame you for taking a much needed break.  Life can be so damn exhausting at times.  I'm sure your stress level runs high daily.  I love your two latest creations...too cute.  Love the frog!  Try and relax some this weekend.  Love ya, Chris
