I am finding STRENGTH on this sight which is what it was intended to provide.  Mostly, I have found very strong women, and let's face it, we all need to stick together.  You all have helped me to get through the last few incredible HOT days.  I admit, I'm being Scotch and not running the AC--my electric bill was double the norm last month because of AC so I'm not running it this week as I am here alone.  At least with my partner working up north, I don't have to have perfect comfort.  Just means I have been sitting and reading all day--hey, I did run the vacuum, for pity sake!  That seems like enough to me!Anyway, you all have been my family and source of inspiration this week.  Spending so much time isolated in my own thoughts can be overwhelming sometimes, but this time is for ME.  I am enjoying my own pace, eating only when hungry, dying my hair without comments (Groucho Marx...have to do the eyebrows too), walking my puppups and reading reading reading.  I think I'll even stay home tomorrow!  We'll see; no sense venturing out with an old truck with no AC if it is beastly again tomorrow.  Besides, I have peppers to roast and can now that I finally have the recipe...Take care all, and feel the love from Central Ohio... xo Cj
