WOW!!!!!! I can't beleive I have a thread named after me.
And that you all cared so much!!! I am crying now!!!! I didn't even tell my friends at work that it was my mom's birthday....because I didn't want them to think I was looking for sympathy. Yes it WAS hard...and to make it worse, one of my best friends passed out at work, hit her head on the ground and they had to call an ambulance for her. She is okay though.
I am so touched that you all cared so much! I guess I am realizing that alot of you understand more about how i feel, that the people who really know me.
