Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

This seems totally insignificant in light of the other requests here this week. But I know that you wonderful women will pray me through. I have a deadline approaching for one of the magazines and there is a lot to wrap up.

I'm feeling totally exhausted and weepy - really unfit to the task.    I'm not sure what's up with me, but I'd really like to just nap.

If you could pray me some stamina, I would appreciate it. Hopefully I'll snap out of whatever funk I'm in soon.

Blessings,

Praying for you Nissa, it's hard having deadlines hanging over your head, they can feel like the guillotine!

And the timing of these funks can be so frustrating!

Praying for good rest, health, and work during this difficult time, Nissa .

Thank you for your prayers. I found out this afternoon that my funk is being caused by something other than work-related tension. It should clear up sometime around the middle of next January.
