Times are tough.

The economy’s in the toilet, people are losing their jobs and this winter weather is enough to make you want to hibernate until the daffodils bloom.

You're juggling everything from relationships to work, babies to beauty and it isn't easy. Sometimes even the little questions can be overwhelming.

You don't need to go it alone. If you're having relationship, career, financial or family issues, or if you simply have a question about what to wear for the next Nor’easter, write to me at PatchAskLuci@gmail.com. No question or problem is too silly or small, I promise.

Look for my column twice a week. I'll be answering e-mails and offering readers a fresh perspective on their problems.

Remember, if you are struggling with an issue, just Ask Luci. The answer is simply an email away.
