...I’ll give myself credit for what I am doing and show myself some grace and compassion for the days I don’t get things done.


Please. Yes

I still can’t seem to get it together with my daughter. We haven’t talked yet. She wants to have a one sided conversation where she tells me everything I’m doing wrong and I’m not up for that right now. I’m up for a two sided conversation where we address our differences with respect. I don’t know what the answer is. It bothers me more than a little.

Oh, Lord. I am so, so sorry that you're having to go through this now, of all times. My mother had severe mental illness and at times I've wondered if her illness was exacerbated because she had 3 daughters, no sons. I'm only half-kidding. Seems to me that daughters are just so terribly hard on their mothers. Mine sure is.

This Zoloft is causing me to gain weight so I have a decision to make. It’s working wonders but I don’t need the weight gain.

That decision. Not an easy one, to be sure.

I've been on Zoloft for about 8 months, I don't know that it's doing anything positive, but it keeps my stomach constantly upset. I've had enough, so I started decreasing it last night - and my stomach already feels better.

I woke at 1 last night and went back to bed at 6 then slept until right before 10. It’s a beautiful day but I don’t believe I’ll float this late. Saturdays get crowded early. I stay away from crowds especially with a high COVID rate of infection in my county.

Hugs to all.
Hugs to you, too, Jennifer.
