Kat, It sounds nice to me for you to put yourself first! In turn, others may follow suit. That is a grayt example of the realities of life. Nothing is wrong with that. You know that stupid saying is true :bang:~ If momma ain't happy, ain't nobody happy. Just really chill and relax as much as you possibly can when you are not at work. Are you at work all the time? Do you have to? Can they make it without you if you need more time off? From your pix, your beautiful gull , looks plenty old and long legged enough to be helpin' her momma a whole lot. I bet she does already, but that's okay, it won't hurt her. I bet you do plenty for everybody. You are right to now care for yourself first! Just say no to parataxi! :wave:Thoughts and prayers from Tennessee. Show 'em how it's done, Kat, relaxing that is, putting you first. ;-) You have got to gull. :love:

Kat. Frank and I think your are one of the nicest, genuine, "funnest," people that we have met since moving here 3 years ago. We love your restaurant's style and food, and see it really as just as a total reflection of YOU!

Our prayers go out to you today!

:love:Dear Kat, I am so sorry to hear that feeling of helplessness and frustration in your posts. You have the right idea to put yourself first for a change. You need help, and there is nothing wrong with that. We all do at times, and you need to realize that there is nothing wrong with letting others take over some things. If I lived there I would be over to do anything you needed.

Thanks, again, for making Ali and Tony's anniversary such a special night at D&Ks (10/23/07). I will see you next year.

Kat, honey, it's so hard to put your physical well-being first, I know. I don't have the issues you have, but I have other issues which make me have to hand over the reins of the household fairly regularly. And when nobody else is there or nobody else takes the reins, you still need to recuperate first.

I'm thinking of you...:love:

:clap::clap::clap:Seacrestkristi....thanks for that motivation. Of course the cafe can make it without me....everyone can be replaced. My sweet daughter helps me where I need help the most and that is within my heart. she has healing powers that give me the strength I need to go on. You are so right I've got put myself first...and it's begun!:rotfl:

As for making Ali and Tony's Anniversary it was our pleasure to help make their night something to remember. I so enjoyed talking with them and trying to make their anniversary all it could be. They were wonderful And I can't wait to see you next year!

ShallowNole....your words mean so much to me....you just can't imagine how it makes me feel to get so much support. It gives me the strength to carry on by putting myself first. I love to be at the cafe....it revives me to talk to the diners.....but it also can be tiring. I have to learn balance. The reins now belong to whoever wants them!;-)

Michigan but someday in SoWal as well
Hi Katz: I found taking a workshop on mindfulness yoga very helpful when I wanted to gain some new perspective. I don't do the yoga (though someday I will), but the perspective I gained from the perspective of mindfulness was VERY useful. There were several ideas I liked a lot, including the Buddhist concepts of "let it go" and "be in the moment" (as the slow cooking movement reminds us to do as well). The speaker wrote a book called Mindfulness Yoga, and I have it but didn't read it yet. Maybe I'll read it and if it's as good as the talk, I'll recommend it to you. I don't know if the book deals with health issues at all, but I found some of the ideas in the talk subtly life-changing.

In the past, after sleeping for lengthy periods (3+ hours), I would wake up in a state of, to put it short, "rigamortis". ha.

I understand the frustration. You have my wishes.

Heyyyyy Paula,
I would be interested in reading this book......doing 20 minutes of meditation everyday helps tremendously. But sometimes I get up and start my day with some pretty stressful things....that is after I take Kalie to school. She is the highlight of my day. Let me know what you think about it. Maybe we can change that to "Applying The Slow Cooking Concept to the Physical Body!!!:clap::love:

:yikes: Rigamortis.....geez I hope not! :bang: :welcome: To SoWal hoity-toity!
Thanks for your thoughts and wishes. I appreciate every person who takes time out of their day or night to post me something!
