I have my friend working on my house in the mornings, with me as his helper/runner/employer; then I work at night. It's been a bit grueling, and this is a tired boy. My friend is dear, funny and kind, as well as a professional, and an active A. I couldn't have imagined how tiresome dealing with that dynamic would be. I don't know how long the work will take, perhaps a month, but we are taking this weekend to go to the mountains and meet some of my family there, and take Carson, too :).
I miss you all so much and just wanted you to know that I am ok, still coming into chat late at nite for a few minutes, (after eleven eastern time). This will pass, and like I take such joy in saying to others, whatever we are going through, remember we are going THROUGH it. There is another side, and it's sunny:)
I have wondered where you have been. I so appreciate you keeping in touch so we won't worry about you. It sounds like you are doing well. I am happy about that, dear mac. Take good care of you and hurry back to meetings and chat. You are missed.
I miss you too ((((((((MacAttack))))))) but am glad to hear you are getting things done around your home and of course relishing the precious time with Carson.
Have a wonderful weekend, Maria
