I actually had a good day today, and guess who I found? Just a few glimpses of the "old me"!!

A very pleasant surprise.., though I must have looked quite silly, driving down the road, talking to myself, saying "hey you, where ya been all this time?" I hadn't even taken any medication, at all, but it did remind me to take the anti-d, so maybe I can see MORE of the old me.

Dad is going to talk to a bankruptcy lawyer next week. His pride is taking a beating, and he's scared they will try to take his van, which is his only means of income, but I keep telling him that he is just checking out his options right now and not to "what if"..let's deal with "what is". Obviously, this affects us all, as he's the main breadwinner in the house. It would be a HUGE weight off his shoulders, though, if this works out. I keep telling him not to be ashamed. He's done his best, but you can't make work happen when the economy takes a nosedive.

More stores tomorrow. It couldn't decide whether to be sunny or storming today and I think tomorrow is supposed to be the same. Patches has taken over the dog's spot on the couch, so we have a pouting chihuahua...nothing a piece of bologna won't fix

Hugs and prayers!
