I haven't been a secretary for going on 25 or so years now, but ...

I just typed up the most beautiful ADA Request and e-mailed it to our wonderful HR lady to review and set into motion.

It's very difficult for me to ask for help, but the time has come I simply cannot put it off any longer and must.

I kept reminding myself that I'm not doing anything wrong and have been quite the trooper to make it this far on my own.

I also kept reminding myself that I am not selfish for asking for what I need.

After all, there is a difference between a want and a need, and this most definitely is a NEED!

It's a shame that my family of origin experiences made me feel so much guilt and shame and wrong and badness.

I am none of those things but have to fight those internal messages constantly.

I am proud (humbly so) that I have made it as far as I have thus far.

Many people would have caved by now.

So here is love to me and you because y'all are my support group and help me a lot in between those therapy sessions.
