my hydro was out for a while, we're havigna really bad storm here, good day to be at home and in bed.
my private mesaaging seems to be down still so thought I'd post and let everyone know I'm still alaive. My eyes are watering, nose is running and I ache just about every where, there are moments i'm sure I'm goingto die, it hurts so abd. I can't beleive I did this to myself.
thanks to everyone that is writing to me,  you have no idea how much it means to me right now to know that people care and understand how i feel.

   Everyone's comments are great, but r2r is right on the money.  You've almost conquered two days, and just the thought of going thru those days again should be an excellent deterent.  Do the little things I suggested to give you strength, and stay in bed if you need to.  Remember, I stayed in bed an entire week.  I'm glad my kids weren't around.  They would've thought I was just being lazy or pretending to be sick.  You know these young kids, they think they know it all.
   Keep up the good work.  I'm so proud of you.  We all are.
Much love,
Yoda

it means we have no electricity, some pole was knocked down down the street, so no power, no heat and it's freezing in here.  It just came back on a few minutes ago so it's starting to warm up.

Thanks for the update.  Have you taken any flu medicine yet today?  Heating pads help when away from a shower or bath.  Hang in there hun, you're doing great.  Love and Strength to you!

I thought the same thing...your hydro is out? I don't know what that means.

Anyway sweetie...so good to see you post. I am having trouble with my messaging also, so if you wrote me---I am not ignoring you.

I know this is hard. It is probably one of the hardest things you will ever do. But you are almost two days into it now--please don't give up.

So many people here care and have been asking for you. So hang in there.

As hard as it is, try and make yourself as comfortable as possible. And, please try and eat something. Hope to her from you again.

Big Hugs coming at you...................You are doing great!!!!!

I really hope that first sentence was a freudian slip and there was no hydro out at all! :)

Gald to hear you are hanging in there! I promise you you can do this! I am on day 5 myself and it is getting better. Remember HOT BATHS!!!

Sending much strength to you!!! Keep us posted!
