Well, today feels better.

I got up this morning and felt like sinking into an isolated depression. I didn't want to go to work. I bribed myself by agreeing to buy myself a coffee on the drive in to work.

Once I had a coffee in hand, I called a good friend who is building a house. He's a good, good man, and I respect him. He is beyond swamped this week. So, my daughter and I will go and help him with vapor barrier and clean up before the drywallers come on Monday.

I'm strong and healthy. I have good kids. I have people in my life who love me. I have options for work. I have you guys. YOU GUYS have done more for me than counselling has done.

I'd invite you all to my house for supper if I could. I make a very good chili.
