You know you are loved when your dear ones…

• offer you a stash of Samoas if yours runs out before you reach your deadline.
• give you a list of things to watch out for at the end of your project that you wouldn’t have known to look for.
• mention a much loved book that ends up being just what you need to read in the mornings while waiting for the Metro.
• come into work on the weekend in large part so you won’t have to be there by yourself.
• don’t complain about how late you are at the office for a month.
• keep pots of soup on the stove for when you finally make it home at midnight.
• send emails and texts checking in on you.
• wash your workout gear so you will have something to wear this week.
• make you tea so you have cups to drink when you drag yourself out of bed and when you arrive home.
• snuggle into your lap as soon as you collapse at night.

Thank you all.

One more day…

To help heal what ails you:
