People you love, admire, trust and for whom you are responsible.<br />There is really no way out. No way to say,"Okay, had enough. See ya." Only sure fire way for it to end quickly is to die, and not quite ready to go there as of yet...so, you take it day by day and hope you survive. <br />Believing in the cause, but oh, so tired of the conflict. Don't you wish they had R&R for moms? I sure do.<br />Sending positive energies, and a reminder that you are entitled to any doubts and fears and angry frustrations you are feeling. You are, my dear, quite frankly, dealing with a hell of a lot.<br />CherylCherylhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06422557023490999692noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557928558578780512.post-34459258052828740732009-05-21T18:18:20.657-07:002009-05-21T18:18:20.657-07:00I am so glad you are allowing yourself to feel tha...I am so glad you are allowing yourself to feel that way.

If you were dealing with everything with not an ounce of depression, resentment, and somewhat angry,.....I'd have to check you for a pulse! I cannot imagine how you are keeping it all together.....<br /><br />I am lifting you up (and your husband, I believe in the power of prayer and miraculous healings) on my prayer list tonight.....you can count on that!~*Michelle*~https://www.blogger.com/profile/12973255141669832129noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557928558578780512.post-23715180498719926032009-05-21T16:12:41.920-07:002009-05-21T16:12:41.920-07:00you are not crazy lisa and do NOT need to justify ...you are not crazy lisa and do NOT need to justify anything. At this stage you need your friends and are spent and shouldn't feel guilty if 'can't keep up'. Hell woman your doing the most outstanding job in such a very very very difficult situation. You are the glue that's holding the family together at this point in time and it's wearing you. (((HUGS))) I hope the therapist can help you get through this.Angiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03352252890226423418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2557928558578780512.post-87796869425901799012009-05-21T16:02:41.688-07:002009-05-21T16:02:41.688-07:00Lisa - First off, right now your job is to need yo...Lisa - First off, right now your job is to need your friends. Your friends are SUPPOSED to be there for you right now. That's why we have friends.<br /><br />And I love your honesty. You're having to soldier through this, but it doesn't mean anybody expects you to skip through it sprinkling sunshine, happiness, and good vibes all around.<br /><br />You are such a strong woman - you're allowed to have weak moments. You have to.<br /><br />All that to say, "Of course you feel that way!" Hope things go well with the counselor and that you find a little peace. Good vibes from me to you.Wendy Phttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12110655950633558010noreply@blogger.com
