Made it - Day 3

I cannot believe after the horrific night I had, that I made it through this day but for the grace of God Almighty!  I had to go and clean a 3 bed/3 bath house, took longer than usual, more breaks than usual, kept telling myself...who is gonna feed your kids????  Wow, I made it, did it, and then cried my eyes out...thank god its over too.....had to post this cause I feel awsome about it and I know everyone can appreciate the will power, sweat and tears....I DID IT!!!!!

Actually, do need all the good wishes---don't feel like I have much guts...maybe the grit....sometimes you just don't have a choice...I think everyone of you all that have taken the time and posted responses are all awesome, makes you feel good....and I think everyone has the same ol' guts I do.....a lot of the stories are so similar to mine...a lot of the battles....I commend everyone!!!!

Ditto to the other posters above mine -- ---- You are one awesome person with the grit and determination to get this done -  - --  I admire you greatly --   such tenacity.   I wish you the best but somehow, in my heart, I don't think you need my good wishes ---  would that everyone of us had your guts. All the best.

I just want to offer you my utmost respect and admiration. Having to deal with WDs and go to work is the worst...especially if it is manual labor or you have to be around a lot of people(that was my case).

I hope you step back and give yourself a second to realize how strong you are. I know big manly "tough" men who would have curled up in bed and refused to go to work in that situation. .... I don't know if I could have done it on day 3.

You should feel awesome about it.

Good luck, and if you are feeling weak....step back and remember what you made it through already. It's impressive.
