IT IS. If we do our best in any circumstances we have given all that we have to give. No more can be asked nor expected from us. Sometimes we are our own worst enemies for thinking what we have to offer isn't enough..<br /><br />You made a wonderful cake that your daughter will remember forever - just look at that smile on the photo .... absolutely priceless. We really do have to learn to savour the special moments, the smile the touch of a hand, the hug we can give or receive from someone we love.<br /><br />You have so much going on with family and worry over your sister, the very least you can do is to be good to yourself.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04177854521955532744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561399350178041671.post-13013854187223538592014-03-11T15:01:57.094+11:002014-03-11T15:01:57.094+11:00thanks Jan, send some of that wonderful virtual ho...thanks Jan, send some of that wonderful virtual home made bread too...that looks awesome.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13278810299840471966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561399350178041671.post-44949282808250607682014-03-11T14:06:36.684+11:002014-03-11T14:06:36.684+11:00Hey Kathy,

Try not to be too overwhelmed with chores and it sounds like you need to go the easy road for awhile. In the big scheme of things you are doing a wonderful job and I'm sure you are a great support for your sister. Let the mess stay there, it's not going anywhere and will just find you again tomorrow! Be gentle on yourself. I'm sending you a virtual bag of home made treats, dinners and warm hugs, Jan xJan (a gluttonous wife)https://www.blogger.com/profile/04980538485559579650noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561399350178041671.post-85828760206028868842014-03-11T12:13:22.483+11:002014-03-11T12:13:22.483+11:00Thanks Martina....Thanks Martina....Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13278810299840471966noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561399350178041671.post-52951136733217989352014-03-11T10:53:45.663+11:002014-03-11T10:53:45.663+11:00You're doing a great job - it's hard enoug...You're doing a great job - it's hard enough to keep a house and look after kids at the best of times let alone when the rug gets pulled out from under you - just try to keep your head above water and know that you're doing your bestAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5561399350178041671.post-11024498926842623682014-03-11T09:29:19.535+11:002014-03-11T09:29:19.535+11:00Simple living is very labour intensive!
