[QUOTE="flutterby, post: 262784, member: 7083"] Thank you, ladies. Thank goodness for heated mattress pads. I think it's the only reason I could get out of bed today. After being up an hour, I started hurting and I laid back down. I spent all day in bed (and most of the night) with the heated mattress pad. difficult child got home around 4am Sat morning. She was happy and was showing me everything she got. Then, like flipping a switch she became very upset. I know she was exhausted and being away from home for so long.... She was sobbing and telling me how she's afraid of absolutely everything and how she's stressed out and can't deal with stress. She finally got in bed around 5:30am and since she's afraid to go to sleep unless I'm still awake, and since it takes her a long time to go to sleep, I finally got in bed around 7:30am. She was much more calm today. When I got up, I found potted flowers on my kitchen table with a note from difficult child 2's mom thanking me for everything I've done. I'm kind of embarrassed because I don't think I've done all that much. The note was really nice and the flowers are beautiful. I have to wait for them to open up before I can tell what they are; not very good at identifying plants/flowers. I couldn't get ahold of her today to thank her or to ask. difficult child is now on Spring Break and I think the timing is good for her. The week after break the OAT (Ohio Achievement Test) starts. They've really been drilling them at school with the "OAT Blitz". That hasn't helped with her stress level. I'll be glad when it's back to 'normal' school. Oh..and to top it all off.... Remember that accident easy child was in last year (a year ago this month)? The other driver backed out of a driveway on top of a blind hill and easy child couldn't stop. It went to arbitration and I thought it was all said and done. Now the other driver is suing my insurance company. Sigh.... [/QUOTE]
