Get a wall calander to write appointments and such on, that way if your BB decides to impersonate Michael Phelps again, you're covered, download a grocery list app for your phone (I have Grocery IQ on my iPod, works great and it was free), assign tasks to the family to help take some weight off of you (even if Mikihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08879281587345086023noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7677701049236919735.post-79170260562950249262010-06-07T19:43:05.787-07:002010-06-07T19:43:05.787-07:00Wow!

If not, is there a family member or friend? Sometimes it helps to know we aren't alone. You definately are not! Take a deep breath.

I read somewhere once that most people who are depressed are depressed because a lot of bad crap happened to them...it sounds like if nothing else the stress is way crazy.
