Overwhelmed

I'm temporarily overwhelmed with paperwork, schedules, the past, the future and everything yucky in between.

Yesterday after I finished with the kids at headstart, I walked down to the office. Laurie was busy typing on her computer so I asked her if she had a minute. She asked me to wait just a second so she could finish up what she was working on, then turned and asked what I needed. I simply said, "a hug." She didn't even ask any questions, just jumped out of her chair and enveloped me in a big Laurie hug. Isn't she amazing?! I work with some great people. And it just shows how far gone I am if I'm actually requesting a hug.

Steve and I are meeting with my therapist in Sioux Falls next Wednesday morning. She's amazing, too. I met her a few years ago through adoption/attachment and lately she's been helping me figure out how to parent Anthony. Unfortunately, she's so good that she thinks that the past affects the present and the future ;) Which means we have to deal with all of it.

Headed off today to work at the produce stand. Great fall day to be outside!
