Spent?!! I would be running on credit at that point! I'm so sorry Angie! I have Kleenex in my storage room if you run out and I'll be praying for you- no more deaths or fires for a while!
your were there ready to give love and a smile to everyone. You deserve a rest now. Love Ya
Love you Angie. Beginning to catch up on your blog right now. I have had a tough week with visits in the ER with Jennifer and all sorts of things happening that make me feel like I am pedaling forward on a bike but actually going backwards. I haven't had much of a chance to read anyone's blog and I have missed yours most. Hugs!
Wow--what a month! I think you've had more than your share. Time for a long break, right?
It's been a tough month, hasn't it! Thanks for being there for me!
