I rarely have peace and rest. I'm usually dealing with getting rid of saliva, getting air, or coughing. In the past couple of days even my sleep has been tense. As I had to sleep on my back, I'd wake with a neck ache from how I had to position my head to get air.

Crying with no good reason today. For example, to Springsteen's song "Growin' up." I think it's because of the minor chords and because I am right now growing up, if you get me. Get me?

Melissa, thank you for explaining minor chords to me, the church chords.

I am amazed how many love me, some of whom I've never met.
