Not really depressed, mostly bored. No motivation to do anything today. The kids came over to visit and that was the best part. High spirits, energy, plans, let's do this, let's go here. Wish I had that still. But we did laugh a lot.

Drama still swirling. I don't want it, or to grapple with he-, she-, they- said blah blah about you to this person yackety yack; it's a tangled mess that makes me automatically tired when I think of it and is probably wearing grooves in my brain when I do. So I'm really trying not to.

Tomorrow going out of state for a concert and dinner. It'll be a nice break, but I must keep reminding myself to not let crazy-makers determine how I feel, so I can enjoy the evening. It is work, because I'm trying to change and not ruminate about this, or in general. It is so easy to just let myself ruminate. But the effect on me is usually pretty bad.
