It was not stressful because I made sure I was prepared. That's what this site is all about. And I love that Valium. Ha! It calmed me right down. My mother takes Xanax, but she needs it, having to be the caregiver for her 95-year-old mother.

Mom suggested I get a prescription for Valium and take it daily! She said it would help take the edge off. Playfully, I said, what edge? She replied, well, you are kind of hot-wired, you know.

I know myself well enough to know I am on the tense side of things. Kind of wound up. Always have been. I also fidget. But when it comes right down to it, I like being edgy. It makes me, "me." <img src="/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />
