Teresa, I'm sorry to hear this news. I will keep you in my prayers.
The baby animals are precious. Thanks for sharing these photos. Made me smile.
So cute. I want to take the polar bear cub home.
I pray for your health and happiness, T.
Thank you very much TCL and Opus.
Today I broke down crying in my doctor's office and by what I said my doc told me that I'm being too hard on myself. He made me an offer I cannot refuse. I've talked to a few people and they say I need to focus on me for awhile. As much as I hate the idea of going on disability I think I need to do this for me. My doc said if someone was to look at me they would think that I'd be fine but I'm not on the inside. I've never gone through something like this, this hard and have never felt this way before. I guess I need more time than I thought to work through this.
God Bless.
clarification: disability for 6-12 months, just temporarily.
It's a bundle of cuteness overload!
Feel better, teresa!
Awwwwww! I don't know which photo is the most precious. I will say that I'm partial to baby elephants and baby giraffes. In fact, I've made a few trips to the National Zoo just to see the baby elephants and baby giraffes.
Thanks for the lift! Great post.
