Time is precious, my parents are elderly and coming for a Christmas Eve dinner tomorrow, along with my older brother who spent a great deal of time ignoring me for the past few years, so I will make the most of it. I'm not like my sister who can do everything, I'm no cook or hostess, but I'll do my best.
Hurt my back doing too much cleaning, mother taught me to be a perfectionist, (thanks mom)
Thankful, for a chance to have a good day tomorrow.

Yesterday was just a bad day. I was close to feeling like I wanted to end it all. This morning I felt better, and I was able to deal with the customers at work. Even though it was really busy today, it was a very festive atmosphere: one of my coworkers bought cronuts for everyone (which is like a crossaint/donut hybrid), and several coworkers gave me Christmas cards and candy. It was nice to read the kind messages on the cards.

Here's a picture of a cronut if anyone wanted to see: http://cpronline.com/wp-content/uplo.../09/Cronut.jpg

I'm feeling better, spending more time with my family and even have a guy on the side. Guys may be interested, but what I really want is a friend to talk and hang out with (female friends don't have hidden agendas).

utter misery continues; coming to grips with the realization that I have an alcohol problem and that bad decisions as a result of that have ruined my life and the lives of others (my wife and my son)...

Seeing my pdoc this morning and am really hopeful he will prescribe a different antidepressant that will help me out of this depression! Prozac worked well for me for a long time - - then my previous pdoc took me off it in May or so (for no apparent reason). I think I will suggest it and see what happens.

I'm doing okay and still managing to not be depressed. Sometimes I am getting tense, like I have to keep a white-knuckle grip on this new-found good state of mind and mood. That's not the way to keep well, and I shall try to relax this eve.

For those who are not feeling too good today, I hope things get better. They did for me and I hope I can continue to improve.

I miss toilets that flush. I miss clean floors. But I'm going to be lazy and not do anything because I can't be bothered. All it would take is a little effort. I complain too much. It's my fault it's in this state anyway. Just whine about it and do nothing. I slept most of the day anyway. Useless.

Hi,
I will be with my dogs tonight, it is too hot here, almost impossible to be. I am grateful I have air conditioner, many people do not have it in my country.

Well about to move into another 'anniversary' date. This one, the beginning of my deepest darkest depressed days, '88. Christmas Day.

In an ironic twist, instead of opting for my usual, stay home in my pj's all day; and partly influenced by scheduling, since yesterday's plans were scrapped because of the ice storm in Maine, and coordinating available days...down to visit my dad, tomorrow, if only for a couple of hours. ((oh, and because of the icky weather, and school break week...I'm ready to get my kids out of the house!! just ready))

Driving is cathartic, so that's part of it. I've been welling up with tears, during random moments tonight. Kids asked why we go driving around looking at lights, and I said, that I like them, and plus it reminds me of the times we used to with my mom, when they were much younger. I told them, that sometimes, I like to think about my mom, and doing this, is part of that.

Bittersweet, is how the holidays are for me. Utterly, bittersweet. I don't fake it with a smile and bubbly attitude with my kids, either. I am not hiding my pensive nature from them, whatsoever. Kids, this is me.

Surprisingly I'm a little upbeat for the Christmas, maybe because I have all of you? Last year was rough, well every year since 2005 sucked. But that's another topic. So far So good for the Eve.

I have been putting off typing up and sending emails for months. Short things, nothing too stressful... supposedly. I decided now was as good a time as any to send them out. Feels kinda good....

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, all!

The "odd" depression has passed. No longer numb. Now I just feel myself falling and falling. Back on this ride again, then.

I want to spend my days in bed, it seems. Everything is painful, tiring, overwhelming. I could tackle some dishes, sweep up a bit... or not.

I thought of getting out today. Meh.
