So, my mom came 10 days ago to help set up the house. Any of you that know my mom and know her design sense know that I'm very, very lucky to have her help. So, she got here last Friday, and starting Saturday morning we cleaned... and cleaned... and cleaned... and sorted... and threw away, for five days we did this. Seriously. And THEN, we went and bought furniture. Beautiful furniture. I'm a lucky girl. It was such a nice week with my mom. And she just left, and I sit here writing this wiping the snot from m nose becuse I'm crying so hard.

This past week has been like getting my life back together. I actually feel like a real human being again. My home is clean and beautiful, my dogs are actually acting like pets and not barbarians... it's been a VERY, VERY good experience for me.

I have some VERY big things to sort out. I have some very big decisions to make. Don't be surprised to see a much mor profound update coming from me very soon.

But today, I'm going to cry while it's still rainy, and then I'm going to pick myself up by my bootstraps and go to the gym and work out... and then I'm going to come home and get dressed and go see "The BreakUp" with Jennifer Aniston. I find it highly relevant for my day.

Much love to all of you...

Anne
