I will forgive her for the hilarious laughter following her remark. Just

“Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give

lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls” (Matthew 
11:28-29).

come apart.” An afternoon nap has unashamedly become part of my daily 
activity.
