@Blue_Bird: That's great that you've got your sister's cat to look forward to. Pets really make a home cozier. Is that your ukulele i see peaking out in the picture? Glad your meds are working.

In my own news, i worked more on my home today but am still finding i'm too weak to put in more than a few hours. I'm bursting with ideas but while the spirit is willing, the flesh is weak. I'm happy with my accomplishments tho. It's still cold and windy here. Winter does not want to let go. My Lamictal withdrawal continues to go well as per my agreement with my doctor. Just six more days left and i'm done. My mood is still somewhat better than in the dead of Winter but i am still insulting myself for being a stupid idiot when i am attacked by thoughts of shameful things i said or did in the past. What a way to live.
