That's incredible! You just wrote out everything I've thought and felt!!

I just did the same thing reading your post,'cept I wasn't alone and my little one is saying, "are you okay, Mommy?" I know just what you're talking about, jeanne. ~winks~ My Grandma called it being "a bit affected by the spirit". ~giggles~ I'm sitting here trying to figure out how to spell out "affected" in the Southern way...hmm, let me try- "uh-fayk-tid" - Hey! I think that's it!

~hugs~
