Re: Checking In
Hi Kim - I have been thinking of you and am so glad I stumbled upon your post tonight!
I am horrified to hear what you have had to go through with your sister. You must still feel shaken and sad to think about her struggle.
It sounds like moving was, at the end of the day, the right thing to do for you and for your family. I can think of fewer joys greater than family and grandchildren.
I spent a few minutes tonight looking back to 2004 (!!) at my early tentative posts on this web sight and see you were one of my earliest mentors - so thank you for that - albeit 10 years later!
And thank you for your updates - few and far between is good - it means you are enjoying life.
XOXO
