Thank you all for your concern. I'm doing ok. In addition to being terribly sad, I have the thought running through there about if I could have done anything differently that may have changed the outcome.
I've also got this huge mess at work (not related to my friend's unexpected death) which has me so upset and frustrated that I'm not able to dwell on much else. I think this is going to be the final event in my career. I don't want to work if I have to deal with crap like this.
Alphamom, I'm glad you are doing better. Seven children need a voice to lead them!!!
Why is it that chocolate is the only thing that tastes good when I'm stressed?
