How did everyone do?
So deserved! So happy for you my friend!!! ❤️
Aww thanks Star!! How was your Holiday my dear?
Hmmm well it’s only half way over... kiddos have another 10 days of no school and I love that ❤️ Also we just had family guests arrive today... but it’s all going at least better than I anticipated. My mind is messing with me but nothing I can’t handle... things typically go easier than I imagine they will. Thanks for asking!
You’re going to be too busy to listen to your mind!! 😂
What great news to read! Very exciting to see relief💜
Oh and me, I’ve been all over the place, like this morning I did not want to be alive fighting suffering so disoriented... now I feel some sense of comfort and though the fear is still here there is a bit of hope that my fear doesn’t have to equal too horrific to handle type of experiences to come as my illness tries to make me believe.
my day in full woke up 10.30 went over to my aunt/niece made her a coffee gave her daily newspapers.left and went down the graveyard for a couple of hours lit candles at various headstones.came home about 2.30 finished cooking dinner but still hadn't had breakfast or lunch so had breakfast at 3pm.watched tv had dinner about 6pm fell asleep for about an hour watched more tv stuffing my face with roses and the biggest galaxy bar then took the dog a big walk fast paced to burn it off.
Busy Busy!! And I am walking up and down the stairs at work to get some calories off from the holiday! So much food...my Lord! Glad you had a good one! <3
Oh how wonderful...it's what I like to say...Killer Cool! Keep the joy now! I'm so so happy for you...You go girl!
Sparkles & dump trucks of groovy love, peace, light, joy & hugs Michele!
Killer Cool LOL Love it!! XOXO <3
Dear LiveandLetLive42,
Well I did it! I got through Christmas. Hubby and I are Agnostics (that’s all I’ll say about religion). I did call and wish my brother and his family Merry XMAS. We had a nice chat. And of course I got the umpteen questions: Why don’t you guys have a tree?; what did you get hubby for XMAS?; and so on. I simply answered, “Hey, you know we don’t celebrate and we’re very content the way we are. Besides with 4 cats a XMAS tree would be the ultimate kitty destruction bait.” He instantly backed down and our wonderful conversation continued.
I must say that I LOVE December 26th! Now I can walk into department stores without leaving with background XMAS carol music stuck in my head.
I’m amazed this year so far the Holidays didn’t get me down. I’ve wished several friends and acquaintances Merry XMAS and Happy Hanukkah as a kind gesture because they celebrate and the greeting warms their hearts. I also made a recent large donation of my older used clothes and toiletries to the local Rescue Mission for the poor and homeless. The wonderful look of them receiving my donation was priceless and quite heartwarming (a great boost of the esteem for both them and me).
New Year’s is coming up and we’ll all be entering a new decade. My primary New Year’s resolution (which is the same every year, is hoping for World Piece). My secondary resolution is to lose 25 pounds (ha! that one always lasts two days at the most — all a grain of salt to me).
Today I’m reading a great book, and I’m happy to report, feeling quite content.
LiveandLetLive42, I thank you for your post.
Best,
MZ ❤️
You are so funny!! I love both your New Year's Resolutions!
A good supportive sense of humor is a great brush to the esteem. 😊
I was sad, but less sad than the previous weeks. These sadness and anxiety waves keep coming. Some are tall waves, some are ankle height.
Belch !! 😁
What does this even mean Alan?? 🤦♀️😂
It was a very Merry Christmas for me. Though I miss a friend of mine whom I had not seen in a more than a year. Only time will tell when questions will be answered. Anyway, I am happy and the people around me are happy.
Nice to hear that you aren't depressed anymore.
Glad to hear you’re happy and around happy people. I hope you get to find your friend!! Xo
How did you get rid of the depression?
