The Epic thread provided some good laughs...
What you got?
In all honesty, in moments of feeling this overwhelmed...my husband would always tell me, "Just chisel a toe, Jill." Meaning, you have this block of stone you have to make something out of and you have to start somewhere, so start with a toe and move up. All of this sucks, it really does, but somewhere there's a starting point to manage it. I hope that God or "whatever you might believe in" helps you to clarify what that is and what will be the most life giving, joy full part. Prayers for you. And we'll be here for you every step of the way.
