    The emotions sound so painful. Hope you are ok.
    I did lots of suicide prevention traning this year. The statistics are heartbreaking, but it's the individual cases that really affect us. Thinking of you and the family.

    Thank you:):A

    Friday night & it is like autumn.
    Pouring of rain & dreich. Bah.

    I am currently drowning in paperwork & stressed out.
    So I am having a break & am planning to tackle some of it on Sunday.
    It needs to be done by Tuesday as I have a meeting.

    It's autumn-like down here too, beanie, raining on and off all day, quite chilly - I have all the windows closed! Hope it doesn't interfere with your sleep.
