    • Hug

      From jadedgirl December 9, 2008

      ((((Hugs back at you))) Yes, I am becoming more and more aware the past several months, that if I overdo things on a good day, I pay for it for several days thereafter...so, I have learned to take it one day at a time. Getting my Hubby and kids used to me saying NO to certain things has been hard on them, but they are beginning to get it and understand when those days come where I need to say no to activities. Big hug again.
