Of course being a type A myself, maybe we're expecting too much from ourselves. Those people weren't there before, but we were able to do it all ourselves so it didn't matter so much. Now that we are limited, the frustration on our part is greater and we are realizing how it's "always been". Does this make sense? Must be the season for whines!! All the TV movies about family, friends, etc., are just a dream when you're all alone.
Gentle hugs and feel free to use my shoulder any time.........

((( Judy )))) Thank you so much for bringing me around about my own expectations....you really hit the nail on the head. Asking for help has NEVER been my strong suit. Verbalizing what I need hasn't been on top of the list either *sigh*. I really need to work on this.....
