I had day #2 off work and one more tomorrow. We will have to work President's Day and tack on the rest at the end of the school year. I don't care. We have soooo much ice! I lost power for a while tonight. The electric co. bypassed my main line and I have 5 days to replace my weather head which was broken by a tree limb that fell. Always something. It has been kind of a hard couple of days. Scott was such a trooper during our Jan. 2007 ice storm which was much, much worse than this. So many memories brought to surface. We were without power 8 days. One of the pictures I have posted of him is from during that time. He was so helpful. And, I remember him roasting hot dogs in our wood stove. Too funny. I miss him so much. I got a phone call from a TV news reporter I know. She was approved to do an investigative report on methadone use. I am going to do an interview with her on Sunday. For the time being my identity will be kept secret. I am excited, in a sad way, to be doing this. I just want to prevent another family from experiencing what I am. Please say your prayers and send positive thoughts my way, Sunday about 4 p.m., my time. (Central) I need all the help I can get as this will be/is, an emotional journey. I have spent most of my time off sleeping. I am still coughing up the yuck. I think my body is just emotionally and physically pooped. I go to my 1st EMDR therapy tomorrow for Post Traumatic Stress. I hope it helps. For nearly 8 mo. I have been reliving, at least once a day, finding Scott. It is very draining and yet my mind has a mind of its own, so to speak. I hope everyone reading this is finding some peace, some way.
