Where is Peggy? 

In the past few weeks one son who had finally found sobriety of nearly a year was in a major car accident while driving to work.  Side effects upon leaving the trauma unit consist of short term memory loss, chest pains, trouble sleeping, loss of his job.

Other son just lost a dear friend to suicide, nuff said.  Concerns surround him. 

Recently husband retired and life has taken on changed priorities.  Suddenly the intended bucket list is put on the back burner.  

I appear to be suffering clutter brain effects and strive to give it all over.  "Grant me the serenity ......"

Pray for my family if you are so inclined if not a wink and a nod to the issues some of you may have shared in the past with this condition.

Ialso, have had "cluttered mind syndrome" lately. After moving my mom into the VA home on August 15th and my daughter starting high school August 16th, life has decidely switched into overdrive!

Living with mom at home definitely took it's toll on my daughter and I. Mom has been out of the home for 4 weeks now, going on 5 and still we are recouperating. Mom seems to be adjusting well... but it's WE that are falling apart! disbelief

So I emphathize with your situation as it applies to "families adjusting to change". Here, again, I think it's wise to use the old Al-Anon tried and true slogans, One Day at a Time and Easy Does It. Can someone please stamp those on my forhead! LOL

Whenever I cycle back to my mind feeling like it is spinning out of control, I make it a point to slow down and find some joy in the small things. Take care of yourself and I am sending you love and prayers.

And there you are!!!! Hi, been so long. I love it when people pop up.

yes I would say the men in your life are filling your spaces! I am glad your kiddo is ok girl. That has to be horribly scarey.

Its hard for them to lose a friend. Suicide is so horrible. That friend had to have been so sick to have done that. They just don't know at that age that things really can change and be ok!

I loved it when my husband was around. He kept himself busy like I did. A lot of men tend to have nothing but their career.

SO what are you doing for you my dear? Now don't let those men be babies. Teach them there is MOM time to, and a hey mom can I do anything for you would sure be nice about once a day. Husband too! oops that was advice. I INVITE YOU TO....

What are you doing now?? hugs! love,debilyn
