I know I never contemplated it but am just lucky to have so many sisters that can help. I'm glad you realized that small steps forward with your resolutions will work best. I've discovered the same thing over the last few years and given myself a break.Kathleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01739982274914536036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-75463068659385426052011-01-11T15:38:41.837-06:002011-01-11T15:38:41.837-06:00I hope things improve for your mom - it is so diff...I hope things improve for your mom - it is so difficult when our parents age.<br /><br />One of the booksellers at my local indie has a picture in Creative is a Verb - I got her to autograph it for me.bermudaonionhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10726401178972099557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-18210826564342915262011-01-11T05:33:38.312-06:002011-01-11T05:33:38.312-06:00Sorry to hear about your mom.

There is no right answer, though we are (conditioned, perhaps?) all in search of it.

It's so hard to see a parent suffer so.<br /><br />One of the staff I supervise at work has a ton of issues that need to be addresses--an overwhelming amount. My boss and I have taken an approach not too different from the one mentioned in Rubin's book--address one or two of the issues at a time and work on improving those before moving onto the next issue. Although not exactly in line with the idea of a happiness project, it does seem to be working.<br /><br />I wish you well and hope you have a great week, Molly. I'm thinking of you.Literary Felinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13079276242303738719noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7736127069847988207.post-49574663122478038992011-01-09T22:25:53.540-06:002011-01-09T22:25:53.540-06:00Molly, I am sorry that your mother's health is...Molly, I am sorry that your mother's health is so bad.

I will write it down to read soon...but that might mess with my personal goal, to read more from my stacks!!<br /><br />I am so sorry to hear about your mom.
