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.

I seem to be here a lot lately.

This time I'm just asking if you could spare an Ave for me. My dh has naturally been spending a lot of time helping his mom and dad after his dad's heart attack and slow recovery from bypass surgery. In addition he's been out of town (and will be out of town again for a week shortly) and/or driving my oldest back and forth to activities. When he's home he's often just stressed out. This has left me on my own to deal with the day to day and a house full of boxes. I have a little cold and am feeling a bit run down and so life is just seeming a bit overwhelming. We rushed my oldest to urgent care this morning (no insurance until next week) because when he came down for breakfast this morning he was having trouble seeing and felt like he was going to pass out. The brief tests they ran came back fine, so I think he's just got whatever virus I have (I hope), but... really, it's been one thing after another since the end of May.

I don't want to sound like I'm complaining, but I think you all can understand... a break would be nice!!!

Oh, dear, Angela. So many things at the same time! Praying everything sorts itself out and you all get some relief.

Peace,
Nancy
