I was so worried about nothing - - it went great! It, along with a good night's sleep last night, has really put me in a good mood today.

I was so worried about it being a flop, but everyone had a great time and things went off without a hitch. The best part was seeing my brother, whom I haven't seen since my severe depressive episode of a couple of weeks ago. I started crying tears of joy and relief. It felt so good to be with my extended family - - I really needed that during this trying time. We really only see each other on major holidays, and I try to have a BBQ for everyone each summer.

My anxiety is so much lower today, realizing I can pull off a stressful event without falling apart. Lesson learned for me: don't worry so much about how everything is going to turn out. Another lesson: keeping busy and accomplishing makes me feel good.

Just feeling grateful today.
