Hi Julie

Control - it is hard for me, but sometimes I actually don't care about things the way I should. I'm letting go of what doesn't matter. As for kids, they are in school or daycare all day, so that helps a lot!

My husband is super supportive. He had a neurological issue a few years ago, where he lost use of an arm suddenly (Parson Turner Syndrome). It was awful, but something positive, we have first hand experience of what it is like to be the patient or caregiver. That is helping!

My mom stayed with us for the first couple of weeks, but we are on our own now.

I feel like you do about church - or any gathering over 3 people. I'm sure it will improve!
