I am sorry that I have missed so much of your suffering it was not through not caring but we had no internet for a month.
The way I find things at the moment I would say do it today if you are able don't wait for things to be better tomorrow.

Sometimes we have to stop and rest as it is our body that is taking over the commands ! Take care ((((Nicolette)))), going back to work after major surgery can be pretty hefty.

I am plodding through but I've lost my strength to carry on right now......

I just feel like walking away. I want a life and don't want it to be work, work, work.

My strength and drive has been rattled beyond what I can pull together now and I feel like I am letting so many people down

WRONG. If you are being made to feel you are letting others down, then you are buying the guilt trip PLUS INTEREST.

Are they letting YOU down is the question? Why the expectation that YOU must be the strong one carrying and supporting and THEIR needs come first.

Nope. Sorry. Equal footing.

You need to use your diary girl. Open some pages and put in some appointments....for you. Go to beach? Pedicure? Movie with a girlfriend? Read a new book ON YOUR OWN?

And those appointments you need to treat the same as you would an exec meeting. They are NOT negotiable. And stick to it.

If you have anyone breathing down your neck then please please SEE IT. Its not you letting them down it THEM letting YOU down. Stand your ground and say no. And if they get in your face or space, dont you move, ask them to. And if they wont then tell them to.

If something doesnt get done, the world wont end. Someone else will do it.
