Katrina, I hope you feel better soon. I miss this thread. I really have had no time to do much work around the house. It is just the basics. Everyone is kicking in more to help. I also don't have much time to reflect on what's working and not working. In actuality, my contact with people has been with those in my household and those in my online class. There isn't much to process at that point. I will say that I've learned to let go on a lot of things because of my schedule. It was scary at first but I do find it freeing and I will reflect on that more when class is done.

I will be back and busy as ever with the upcoming holiday cleaning plans. :)

Mary you are very much missed here. I am so glad that your studies are going well and that you are enjoying it. Pleased that all are chipping in and the stress is not too bad.
Looking forward to catching up more.
XOXO
