Dreading the rest of the year because of the PR's mental condition.

i know how you must feel. but you are the best/only
person for the job, and it's a job you do very well! i am sure the PR
would show how glad she is to have you as her mum if she could!
i suspect you put on a brave face, like me sometimes.
i have a selection of stiff upper lips - should you need to borrow one.
