Oh God! I am a manic mess, everyone is getting together at my house today for a post-thanksgiving get together for all those that were not able to get together on Thursday! (of course it was my idea-the road to hell is paved with good intentions), now I look around at my house, which I have already cleaned, and all I can see is that ceilings needed painted, the walls need painting, the doors, the trim and everything else you can paint. In addition my flooring needs to be replaced and nothing meets my expectations. At least the food is all done! I so want to enjoy this, but I feel like everyone is judging my home and housekeeping skills! YYYYYAAGGG! Help!

No one notices the stuff in your house like you do. Just have fun. i used to be like you about that stuff and I wasted so much time. Have a fun dinner and enjoy yourself. You are allowed:)

    I have been here before, a long long time ago and now I am back.Forgive me for not just saying what I want to say,even under a triple dose of antidepressants it is still raw and seeping and I am hesitant at revealing it as at least under the bandages around my heart I don,t have to look at how raw and wounded.My child was cleaved from my heart by his own actions. my child of ten,turning eleven...
