A moment of honesty . . . In talking with my psychologist about my deep depression a couple of weeks ago, he advised that one important thing I should do for myself for a while, at least, to try to get better is the carefully count the cost before I make a decision to do anything.For [...]
The new week started yesterday with bright sunshine, after a very bleak, cold, wet, dreary week. My mood brightened just a bit, too.When we moved into our house last summer, good friends gave us a fire pit as a housewarming gift. It was hot and muggy and while we appreciated the thought, it's use seemed [...]
The Finding Direction Judges have received some excellent photos already, but need more to make this a really good contest. (See last post.)I am very appreciative of those I've gotten already because they have given me something to work on that is fun and positive. You see, yesterday was hard and so far today is, [...]
I started my new medication yesterday and started tapering off the one I'm already on for depression that wasn't helping. I don't know how long it will take for the medication to begin to take effect, but I hope soon. I hope that I will not only be able to tolerate it, but that it [...]
I'm going to confide in y'all today. I've not been one to do that to any great extent about myself, but I've decided to take the chance. We always take a chance when we're "real," don't you think?

As we've gone through the alphabet being thankful (and hasn't this been fun?!?), I've had several chances to bring up the [...]

Sorry I've not posted in the past couple of days. I've not been feeling real well from extremely low blood pressure still even though we cut back a bit on one of my blood pressure medications. We never could find our blood pressure monitor that we had, so I was forced to go buy a [...]
