The attack of Caribbean boy

Josh has this wonderful, fun, project for school in which he has to create his own country. It is called Lukandria and is an island in the Caribbean. Part of the project involves creating a native dish, so we have been eating plenty of Jamaican style food (that I did not have to cook), including some delicious banana fritters. Unfortunately there are also about a million other things he needs to do: maps, culture, artifacts, flag, a long report and class presentation. And for some reason I am totally stressed about this, while he seems oblivious. Okay, maybe not. He is showing many stress related symptoms, as am I, lack of sleep, or inappropriate sleep, overemotionalism (i.e. tears), body aches and headaches. Perhaps he is pulling all that from me. I am too stressed for words. Its not just this project, but a variety of stuff going on... I am also inexplicably depressed. And since there are too many things going on in my brain I have shut it down. But my body is still freaking out. Well, that's all mon.
