Thanks for the words of encouragement... the logical side of me

knows all of this to be true, but to be quite honest, I feel like a

wuss sometimes when I read posts about people going back to work

after only 9 days! I've always considered myself to be a quick

healer and strong. I am very fortunate to have my mother helping me

out with my kids and such and I've got 6 weeks off from work thanks

to short term disability. This week has been taxing though cause my

kids have been home since last Friday on Spring Break. Poor things

are crawling the walls!! Mom definately hasn't been ANY fun!

Anyways, thanks again... Cyndi

And if Mom's not boosting your spirits -- could she and the kids go

off together somewhere fun for them, to enjoy? And then you could

just pile up some zzzz's and get through the troubles...

Just a thought. If you could help subsidize it, so much the better...
