  Oh, geez. What’s going on? Can I help?

  I don’t know which one I like better. They’re both beautiful.

  *hugs*

  I am always here to listen (though I won’t ask you to talk, nor will I have a lot to add to the conversation — shockingly!). Or you could just smack me around a bit if that makes you smile

• 10. Suzanne  |  September 20, 2007 at 5:35 pm

  Hugs, honey.

• 11. Maritza  |  September 20, 2007 at 6:51 pm

  Hope you’re okay and that things are getting better by the minute.
  Gah, so lucky to own some Lisa Congdon works. Her artwork is so amazing and always makes me happy (even when it’s kinda sad). I could gush about her all day, I love her artwork so!

  Hang in there, hope it gets better.

  I’m really sorry to hear you’re having such a hard week. Feel free to give me a call this weekend if you want to.

• 14. Teresa C  |  September 20, 2007 at 10:07 pm

  I read somewhere that you were having a, and I quote, “first class shitty week.” Sending out good vibes in your direction. If you need anything, we are neighbors, don’t forget that. Mwah!

  I know you’ve had horrid finance fiascos this week– didn’t realize that it had made such a deep shadow on your usually sunny (or ornery) outlook. Would be glad to respond to a posted or private rant. You’re going through lots of changes what with school and work. Be patient with yourself, and remember the benefits of loving self care. The birches ARE healing and beautiful.

• 16. Manise  |  September 21, 2007 at 6:58 am

  Love the birches! Hang in there! You’ve got lots of friends out there sending you hugs including me

• 17. Pi Grrrl  |  September 21, 2007 at 9:39 am

  Sorry to hear about the shitty week — let me know if I can help. Glad you found some beauty to enjoy among the dreck. The birches are particularly magical!

• 18. nina  |  September 21, 2007 at 10:16 am

  hey sweetness,

  what’s shakin’ in your world? wanna talk? wanna drink coffee or wine and eat huge rice krispy treats that are bigger than our heads? wanna meet at borders? wanna? wanna?

  love the art. i’m obsessed with birch trees. i’m trying to reclaim my memories, and not associate them with a**hole boyfriend from college days… love lisa c., too. can you say girl crush?

  xx

• 19. Katie  |  September 21, 2007 at 10:45 am

  Chin up, lass! Would you like to come over to chicken pox central? No? I can’t imagine why…

• 20. Lisa  |  September 21, 2007 at 10:55 am

  I am so sorry that you are having such a long week. As always I am available if you need a shoulder. I love that Birch work. I love Birch trees and wish that I had a place in the yard to plant some. Hug Little Man and kiss Wifey and snuggle up with Nora and all will be right with the world again.

• 21. PatchesMom1973  |  September 21, 2007 at 12:41 pm

  So sorry you’re having an ass week. Hope the beautiful art soothes the soul and helps mend your heart.

• 25. pamela wynne  |  September 22, 2007 at 3:22 pm

  Aw, hang in. Thanks for the great link, and being thoughtful enough to share it us even during tough times. *hugs*

  I read you often, but never comment…I so feel you pain. Please know that you and your son will get through this and be all the stronger for it. As a lesbian,(so I may be biased) I think that a break up is even more difficult, possibly the intense emotion between two women. Nine years ago I was “given the bad news,” I felt like a fish out of water - unable to breathe and I thought the hole in my heart would never heal . But it did and yours will too even tho it doesn’t seem like it now. Just take baby steps and keep it together as much as you can.
