THANK YOU AND HERE IS A CUPCAKE!!!

I am so filled with gratitude to all of you who commented, emailed, sent your love.

Thank you, thank you.

I used to swear that I would never write a flounce post. You know, trainwreck. Woe is me. Poor little me. The world hates me.

I'd read others and think snottily, "Hmmm. Begging for hits. Everybody loves a good down & out story. I'll never do it. I'll keep my problems to myself, the way I was raised."

The Southern Lady way.

But I sat down and wrote that post because I wanted to. It came from the heart. I...um...I don't know how I can justify it...aren't ALL posts supposed to be from the heart?

I just want to thank you so very much for reading and caring enough about me to make your way through a mess of whining and moans.

I guess we all need to let it out once in awhile. I know I feel 100% better now. We all have problems. Some people have worse problems than others. But this I know is true. I do TRY to give back, post encouraging things, etc. And it felt SO DARN GOOD to get it back.

I promise I won't make a habit of these posts. It's the pain. The chronic physical pain. I could take on the world if I weren't for this pain.

And..the fatigue. I have not been out of the house except to go pick up Meredith from school for ten days. In order to do something fun, the planets have to align. I have to feel energetic enough. The pain level has to be fairly low. Those conditions rarely come together.

Okay!! ENOUGH.

THANKS.
