I'm sorry you have been feeling so overwhelmed. Ridden that train to Sucksville with stops at Exhaustion and Frustration- it bites!

Try to rest when you can, pray lots, and eat something sensible- preferably some kind of vegetable matter or protein. Sugar and caffine are not your friends right now. They like to pretend they are, but when they siddle up to you on the basketball courts of red eye cram sessions just say, "no!" Ok, enough with the mothering. I gotta go rent Karate Kid- so just keep on keeping on.

Smooch Yourself!

You mean that the donut and Dr. Pepper I had for breakfast this morning didn't want what's best for me? They told me they'd be my best friends, my only friends, in fact... Hmmm.

Ach, it's true. I've learned that apples are better at waking me up than the other garbage, but my reason fails me more often than usual these days. And I didn't have a surplus of reason to begin with.

As I mentioned to Kathie, prayer has been an almost non-existent thing in my life for too long, so I'm pretty sure that's adding to the despair effect. Having said that, I have prayed since I spoke to Kathie, and then I had my little episode afterward.

Hmmm...

Donut and Dr. Pepper?!?!?? I think I just threw up a little in my mouth.
