Thank you for reminding me that I do need to be grateful for the things I have. A wonderful family that loves me very much and is getting concern about me and this disease that I can not get a handle on.
Today seems to be better; I went out last for a drive, big thing since the only vehicle available was the big truck with a huge ladder with a big red flag attacked to it. I had no particular place in minded I just needed to leave as I found myself unable to breathe. I knew that I could not burden my parents with my problem as my mom was packing for an emergency trip to West Vancouver, her sister is not doing well and is in the hospital there. So I ended up at our local hardware stores, there right across the street from each other, me and my truck fit right in with all the other trucks with ladders on them and their big red flags attached. Anyway, to make a long story short a clerk helped me out in the plumbing department and my mind and mood seemed to change. Gee who would of thought I found therapy in a hardware store, go figure?
When I did arrived home my husband was getting the little ones ready for bed, not an easy task. Because of the novelty of having Dad give them baths, they in turn wanted Dad to finish the nightly routine with the brushing of their teeth. In my hurry to get out of the house, I had left the computer on and the depression website was up. My husband read my entry and we ended up talking about my problem with always being there for his folks and not always for the little ones and me. I think what really sent me out the door was the nightly problem that my husband always seems to have to solve for his parents. We had just finished dinner when I heard the all to familiar footsteps coming down the stairs and then a voice requesting my husbands present to help with some problem upstairs. I want my husband to help his parents but every single night just gets to be so much when he had already been upstairs for hours. Gees I guess I had better stop my venting or I may just need to take another trip in the big truck again; man I hope we get the car out of the shop soon! Thank you again for acknowledging my post, you always bring a smile to my face when I see that you have posted to my post.
Warmest Regards and Cyber hugs are sent to you,

You are right I will have to invite everyone to the house once it is done. It maybe a virtual tour but all are welcome. I will be relieved once we can be a family of four once more. Well, it maybe five or six not sure where the college bound child and boyfriend will be.
Warmest Regards,
