Good morning.I had my whole family over yesterday, kids grandkids, brother and sister in law and her father. I started cooking at 9 am and was in the kitchen on and off all day. I have been trying to keep my pain level and depression from my children. I don't want pity and I don't want disappointment. I have to say that since starting the lexapro and the patch it is much more bearable to be up.Picture this...my son-in-law comes to my house after work. We are all waiting for him so that I could start serving dinner. The kids have both napped and are now up. Maddie is in the pool with her mom and Josh is rolling around the carpet. My son in law is a drama King( like that huh?) and takes my laptop into the kitchen to show us a video of the baby dancing. It is late, I am tired, the kids are hungry and all he wanted was for us to join him and would not start until everyone was there. Ok... so here I am watching the baby dancing and not really watching the captions that he put under the pictures. All of a sudden it says that Josh is excited because he is going to be a big brother. Would you believe that I didn't let that register? I am seeing it but I was not processing it. It wasn't until the end when it said that the new baby will be here in Feb. At that point my jaw dropped. I never saw that coming. They did the exact same thing for Josh but I suspected it. This hit me out of the blue. My daughter is a little scared because of finances , but I told her a baby brings its own luck. Anyway I am going to be a grandma again. I will be laying low today since I way overdid it this weekend but it was worth all the pain I feel now.I will talk to you all later. Taking some meds and will lay down for a while.

Yeah, a new grandbaby! How much better can it get. Tell your daughter babies never show up when you can afford them, if that was the case, most us wouldn\'t be here! Sorry you are \"down\" this morning, I do the exact samething, push and push myself for whatever reason, and them bam!, woreout, at least you haven\'t given up. Get some rest, talk to you later my friend sandy
