Great Friends!

Although the last few years have been extremely stressful, emotional and depressing at times; I think that I have gained some perspective about what is important in life. The last couple of weeks in particular have not been the best. I didn't realize how significant one date could be until out of the blue the only thing I've been able to think about is February 27th, the date we were due to bring a baby into this world. It's one of those things that just crept up on me without much warning.

I think I'm starting to come out of my "funk", just sounds better than depression, because I have such a great support system. I'm so very thankful to have such wonderful friends who are willing to listen, cheer me up, and distract me from all of the things that get me down. So, thank you all for the numerous phone calls and emails back and forth throughout the year, but especially during times like these.

A co-worker sent me home with tulips, my favorite flower, on Friday. Sure, she brought them in as a centerpiece for our morning social, but the vase on my desk with a nice handwritten note was just what I needed after having a rough night Thursday.

(Thanks Jane!)
