There are some days when you simply wonder if you’re going to make it through the day.

Phone calls from folks who act like idiots, people who have unreasonable expectations that they want to make your issue (and fault), computers that don’t work, cars that don’t go, food that doesn’t arrive… you know exactly what I’m talking about.

It makes you want to go crawl under a rock and hide, or at the very least go sit on the beach all by yourself.

And then there’s Judith.

Judith has more health problems than most of us have hairs on our head. Speaking of being “beat up…”

Today, in the midst of a “being beat up” day, she sends me an email that simply states: “I’m doing everything as indicated and feel like a new person.”

Go ahead, punch me again. But watch out for that Mona Lisa smile on my lips…
