Tim, I don't know how you do this - but you're an inspiration. I hate to say that you make my situation look halfway normal, but it does. You're juggling a lot of balls right now and doing an amazing job.

I've not checked in today as I had to try to go and do something entirely unrelated - it worked for a bit.

You seem to be doing what's right for you, and that's great. I've actually slipped a bit as my regimen was extremely healthy before all of this happened, and I've been eating crappy (for me) and sleeping crappy - and just being crappy in general. But your post has been a good kick in the @$$!, I've got to drag myself out of this stupor.

I'm really happy things seem to be looking up a bit with S13, I know you're going to get it to work.

I've not thought about meds for sleeping - I'm not sure what all is available unless it's something like ambien. Have you tried melatonin? That seems to let me drift off pretty quickly, but my brain starts working overtime so I wake up after a couple of hours. My doctor said to give him a call if I needed him - I'm glad you're friends with yours. You should have a chat about options. You've got a lot of things to be on top of, and can't afford to be punchy and miss a beat.

I'll check in in the morning when I'm a little more lucid myself - here I am passing out at the keyboard. The only time I seem to be sleepy!

I'll read a few psalms, pray for you and your sons and even your WW and MIL, along with poor Red, Thornton, Pink, Cadet and Sandi who have both been so helpful, broke, Willdo, sparks, Painter, Wonka, the "assistant" and her Dad, my W, IL's, Mother and little dog to name only a few. We're all gonna do this and get through it. We'll be stronger on the other side.

God bless.
