Sue, I just love your poem. It made me realize how far I've come in the last few years.

Eagle, I've been feeling kind of down for the last couple of weeks. Not a full blown depression, as you said, but troubling. I wish things like this didn't happen, but they do. I think all the stress from my husband's illness last year has finally caught up with me, now that I have time to think about it. I also have been very impatient when people make a big deal about what I consider nothing. That's not always fair, because these things are important to them. I'm working on being more patient as we speak.

Hope you feel better soon.
