Hey there Tree-hugger,

It looks as though you are needing a little time off.

Know that you are loved and appreciated for all that you do...but...

Please, take care of yourself too.

Much love,
M

Hey TP... [hug] a LONG hot bubble bath works wonders for me when I need a recharge. We're all here, blow off some steam if you need to.

This feeling will pass, friend. Rest... [kiss]

I know the feeling.

Have you ever heard of the book "The Long Walk?" Sometimes I think that is analogous to our situation. Here is what amazon reviews say:

Amazon.com
Cavalry officer Slavomir Rawicz was captured by the Red Army in 1939 during the German-Soviet partition of Poland and was sent to the Siberian Gulag along with other captive Poles, Finns, Ukranians, Czechs, Greeks, and even a few English, French, and American unfortunates who had been caught up in the fighting. A year later, he and six comrades from various countries escaped from a labor camp in Yakutsk and made their way, on foot, thousands of miles south to British India, where Rawicz reenlisted in the Polish army and fought against the Germans. The Long Walk recounts that adventure, which is surely one of the most curious treks in history.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.

Review
"One of the epic treks of the human race. Shackleton, Franklin, Amundsen. . .history is filled with people who have crossed immense distances and survived despite horrific odds. None of them, however, has achieved the extraordinary feat Rawicz has recorded. He and his companions crossed an entire continent--the Siberian arctic, the Gobi desert and then the Himalayas--with nothing but an ax, a knife, and a week's worth of food. . . His account is so filled with despair and suffering it is almost unreadable. But it must be read--and re-read."

--Sebastian Junger, author of The Perfect Storm

"The long walk is a book that I absolutely could not put down and one that I will never forget. . ."--Stephen Ambrose

Tree,
I completely understand. My SO now has pneumonia, which makes me the healthy one in the house (actually, the dog has that distinction but can't cook worth a da*n!)

Venting's a great idea. Or just some time someplace away from all the holiday stuff.

I've made a big pot of soup; you're welcomed here!

Hi Tree,

Yes, I hear you. PAMPER yourself with whatever pleases you and you enjoy .. not pamper diapers but that would save me many pee trips during my bedtime hours. LOL.

Seriously, are you & wife able to get away from home for a little while?

Take a break from here too. TAKE CARE OF YOU as no one else will but your wonderful, supportive wife!

We wish you the best for a 360 degree turnaround.

Tree,

So sorry your feeling this way. I too have been in your shoes very recently and understand what your experiencing.

Hang in there. I really like your posts and you've been so helpful.

I'll say a prayer for you and I'll send big cyber hugs.

Sending positive thoughts your way! Remember, this too shall pass. [group hug]
