Today is Tuesday, March 12, 2007. This past weekend was pretty uneventful. Not only did I feel the effects of this cold/bronchitis that has grabbed a hold of me all weekend long, but then on top of that for some reason I decided to read this little book that someone gave us a few days after we learned of our loss for the very first time on Friday. While the book, titled Born to Fly was wonderful; it made me blubber like a little child which only made me feel worse. The silver lining in that cloud however was that I received a telephone call from an Angel immediately upon completion of reading that book, an Angel that Ill forever be in debt to. Saturday night was better than Friday but then Sunday night really hit me like a brick for some reason. I guess my mind was so cluttered that it just wouldnt let me get any rest so I ended up working on 4 hours sleep yesterday. Last night, I found myself once again feeling the wonderful bedtime blues as I like to refer to them; but Im starting to think that must be normal. It is after all, the only time that I have to unwind and reflect. Also in reflection, I have determined that fighting both a physical and emotional battle at the same time has only slowed my recovery down. Guess thats normal too! Oh well, Im going to try to go back to bed. Ill write more later!

Woman! Why am I not reading you have been to the doctor already!!! I hope you are taking good care of yourself. I fully agree with you a physical battle and an emotional battle at one time is just too much. Be well...well...well. The rest will come, right? I\'ll try and carry the hope torch for both of us while you recover.

Hey, I had trouble getting to sleep. It\'s like you are finally able to slow down and bam, the thoughts just start racing so you can\'t fall asleep. I did take some sleep meds for a little bit to at least get caught up on sleep. Maybe something to consider if it keeps up.
