Stressful Times

Although it was nice not traveling to work everyday this week, it certainly was not a vacation.  I had to depend on others to drive me places, sleep on the couch and Anthony had to blow dry my hair (he did a fine job by the way).  Despite all of my attitudes and emotional breakdowns Anthony and my mother have been here to be my left hand...literally.  By the way Anthony is typing every word I am saying.  Hopefully I don't lose any points :-)
