Don't give up... you never know when your breakthrough is just one more umph away
I gave up this weekend. I had a whole day where I did nothing much but cry. This trial is hard.These days the littlest thing can set me to crying and yesterday I just couldn't stop.
In spite of my terrible Sunday I had a pretty good week. The yard sale was really hard and I sat out there 4 hours on Friday and 8 hours on Saturday. Maybe that is why I was so wiped out on Sunday and cried most of the day. We had a lot of stuff left over, but after carting it in and out 5 times for the three days of yard sale we had, hubby said we were done and he carted the rest of it off to the thrift store. I was sad to see the thrift shop get the money. They will probably sell all the stuff we couldn't and they will make the money. However, I was glad to be done carrying the stuff in and out and setting it all up.
This week is named Grade Chemistry because I am behind on that... so that is my #1 goal this week. Can't know how Christopher is doing
My top priorities are marked with a *

My goals for this coming week:
