However, you CAN adapt! It may take you a bit of trial and error to get into a new groove, but it is most definitely possible. p.s. - Assuming that your morning sickness is due to pregnancy, Congratulations!! :) Lorna,

And I love what you said about having the virtual rose to stop and smell, because I do exactly that. I am constantly looking at my life through the lens of things that can bring value to this blog by me writing about them, and that helps me to see more of those valuable things than I otherwise might have. It's a very cool state of affairs! :) Thanks, Gayla, I truly was.
