I can't believe I'm writing this. It's not really my style.
But I have had probably the worst few weeks of my life- literally one disaster after another- and I just feel completely DRAINED- physically, emotionally, financially, psychologically- everything.
I feel like I'm hanging on by a thread. And I just moved to FL and have no friends nearby. If any of you can spare a hug, some uplifting words- anything- I'd be grateful.
I can't even get into the details on everything that's gone on in the last few weeks because I simply don't have it in me.
But here's a sample:
2 weeks of caring for my baby brother in ICU who was in a coma-like state for several days. Doctors told us he may never wake up. He did- Thank God but there's a long way to go in recovery and the emotional and physical toll is indescribable.
I have barely eaten or slept for 2 weeks.
Just before that, my whole checking account was wiped out by ID theft and Chase bank STILL refuses to honor their fraud protection policy and return the funds. I had to use my emergency savings to buy the first flight out to help my parents with my brother.
Did I mention the tornado at my parent's house WHILE my brother was in ICU?
Or the theft attempt on our car the week after all our money was robbed in which we had to replace the car window and door?
Or that our newly adopted dog has gone schizo since the kids came to visit- bit one of them and is peeing all over my landlord's stuff? We may not be able to keep him and he was my only peace.
That my husband may be on the verge of losing his job? The company is cutting back and sent out warnings yesterday.
This is only the beginning but it's all I'm capable of recanting right now. It seems that just about anything that could happen has happened in the space of a month.
I'm on overload here.
If you can spare a hug please send one my way.
