Well, I think it has finally sunk in. I am not really angry, but the enormity seemed to stop me in my tracks today - overwhelmingly under productive. I did check on some insurance stuff, not all bad news. I have a few people asking for resume - tomorrow I will be working on that through an outplacement tele-course and lab, so that should force some forward movement.
Sometimes I think that I just need to lay low for a few days and get my head & heart together. The next minute, I am overwhelming myself with all the things that have to get done. Balance is true need (prayer request). Tomorrow I am starting the bible study, that along with the Al-anon readings, I pray will get each day off to a better start.
We had 'true confessions' tonight, next steps will be difficult and I just have to wait and see if they occur. I will get to talk it through more tomorrow & maybe get some 'professional insight'.
Finally, today we had the Jr. High Girls Baby Shower for Rawney. It was a really nice affair. It makes me so proud to see these young women so full of energy, giving and a love for God and each other. It was also super fun to see how surprised Rawney was and how hyper/jumpy Dave the future Papa was. It was a sweet way to end the day.

Baby Shower Day
I had a wonderful, relaxing birthday yesterday. It was really fun to get the cards, e-mails, etc.
Today was the baby shower for my niece. I co-hosted and my mother-in-law provided the locale. It went well! She has about 4 weeks left until her due date. I am exhausted - not really sure why though. I was able to sleep in until 8am this morning.
Here are the pictures of the ducky blankie. This was a bear binkie (by Cid of CiD Designs) I was testing knitting, but the colors I had selected (trying to stay gender neutral) ended up making it look more like a duck. Friday the women I knit with at Champlin Dunn's confirmed it was truly a duck - and as a team, the duck feet were designed and knit. Last night I put the finishing touches on it, wrapped it up and gave it to the mother-to-be this afternoon.
I think tonight is going to be a restful evening, except I promised to take dd and her friend to Kohls - better find a portable knitting project or book to bring along.
