    • Little Love

      From Tryingtolaugh Tuesday

      Girl, you're my lifeline to sanity!! I've been having major computer issues (yes, w/the new laptop!). They screwed up my settings which I had really customized over the last 2 yrs. Trying to get my son Jimmy over here to help. He's an IT guy! (A computer geek!-thank God!). I had no access last night, which is why I haven't sent a message back- sorry! I will defintely come back on later. Sorry you're suffering with the weather. It's so hot and humid here and that does a number on me. I'm also majorly burned-out lately from the last few months! Also had the crew here all weekend and it looks like a hurricane hit! Trying to regroup. I had to tell them I need a break for a few weeks, and of course I'm feeling guilty. This is their sanctuary and I know they come here to de-stress. I just need a break to get back on track and organize this place (and do a little de-stressing of my own!).
      Love you! Peggy XO
