Reading Depression posts throughout the day -- esp. late at night -- is a kinda major way of staying connected for me. I look forward to seeing posts -- not necessarily to my threads -- I read 'em all, some carefully, some scanning -- and I miss not hearing from the regular posters, and I look forward to hearing from new people and those who post less often.

I'll be reading and caring about you, whomever you are, and looking forward to reading whatever you want to share today, beit lots or little.

Will be back tonight, or late afternoon.

Pleace, blessing, hugs.

Well, I am here, but I am worried about a friend who is sick, and I am hiding in my cave, so I don't have much to say.

I have been spending too much time on here and I need to spend more time with my SO. I am lucky to have him ...

Thanks for caring! I hope you have the best day that you possibly can,

Take care,
Fuzzy

I am sorry this post isn't much, but I didn't want to leave yours with no replies! Hugs to you!

I have also been worried about a friend whom I haven't been able to contact in quite a while now. My only source of hope is that his answering machine is still picking up, and even if someone is looking after it for him I think they would have changed the message by now if something bad had happened. Most likely he is just not responsive. Not good, especially for so long, but still hope.

Hello, I just responded to your self esteem thread. So how am I? Well, I went swimming for the first ime this year in one of my favorite spots. So cold clear, fast moving river. Makes me connect to the universe. Lovely. I found out that my dear friend's child with cancer is so uncomfortable, in pain, unhappy. Not news, has been this way. Getting chemo in hospital. This is my babies best friend. She will be 17 in OCT and my youngest is 17 in Jan. Son is visiting from where he lives about 4 1/2 hours away. But, haven't really seen him because he has been out with a girl and we planned a special meal and he may not get home. It's okay, he is young and he really came to deposit my cat he had for the summer and to get money. His classes start on the 8th. My youngest went swimming with me and I love that she is so present, found a beautiful stone and when I got home my hubby was here and we chatted. He is mowing now. We live in a jungle I think. My lovely in laws have given us tax money for property taxes. That is huge. We will not be behind and maybe can stay on top of next years. My baby is scheduled for surgery on an elbow that is cracking and causing pain but MRI doesn't really show anything significant so I am taking her to a friend's wife who is a chiropractor on labor day for about the 8th opinion. I hurt my back thurs trying to catch and lift an elderly lady who was falling but it's all better now. I took all of the right drugs and went to bed so I am good. I had no money for yard sales today but hubby stopped and got me a little bear and I love it because I have 2 big bears that touch an inside part of me and this little one does too. I am struggling with the job but keeping my head above water I think. So this is my life. Not all, but a taste. Hope you are doing well. Wisewoman.

Hi Wants2Fly,

Where exactly do you "want2fly" to? Maybe we could get a discount if the two of us went together!

I'm pretty new to posting at this site. When I get depressed, I don't post much......hence, my un-noticed absence. I just tend to get really down on myself.

I hope you are doing well.

Take care, hun.

Sandy

Thank you so much for the lovely sharing. It's wonderful.

My life sank into the darkness today again. So many stresses i cant handle it!

My girlfriend got pulled over for speeding and she doesnt have her lisence so the car gets impounded at a gas station thats like an hour from where i am. I have no idea how on earth im getting out there with my proof of insurance and my lisence. My sister drops everything to help me and it all gets worked out. So i wait for my girlfriend to get out of work and am thinking,for one of my biggest fears in the world this aint too terrible. She gets out and i go to start the car and all i hear are click click click click. The car will not start. Im freaking out again and after two hours a guy starts walking toward our car. He helps us get it started by jumping it(dunno why that worked since all the interior lights and radio worked when i turned them on to check). Id probably still be at home wondering how i could get out there,if not for my sister. Id still be in the parking lot if not for the guy. The icing on the cake for me today tho is finding out my sister has to go to the doctors tomorrow to be tested for ovary cancer and some other kind cause some of her earlier tests have them worried. I cannot handle anything like this. Why does this stuff happen?

[Wants2Fly]

Sounds like a truly awful day, a three-aspirin headache of a day. At least the good news about testing is that problems can be caught early enough to save lives, and there are many wonderful medical techniques available.

My prayers are with you.

I love the vision of you swimming with your daughter, and your hubby buying you that bear, and your son coming home to drop off a cat, and pick up money! It all warms my heart. :-)

You are in my thoughts. Emmy

Hey

I don't post much...but i feel ok just now so i will be able to post this without thinking that it's stupid.

Uhh i worked today....that's about as exciting as my day got. I stayed with my boyfriend last night, and he's so good to me, i don't know how i can give him all that he deserves because i'm nowhere near good enough to do so.

I'm currently downloading the newest version of java so i can join the chat.

HOpe everyone is having a good evening/day xx

[SeptemberMorn]

Don't know if I should be "checking in" because I don't post that much in here, but I have posted SOME, so here I am.

Got the old man off on his extended trip to Canada. That's my exciting news for the day. Kinda wish I was going, but I'm glad I'm staying home, though. Will have to see how it feels to be independent again.

Thanks for the weekend news. I like it.

[lenjan]

Well, let's see. Yesterday 2 of my sisters and my mother invited themselves here for Labor Day. They're all showing up Friday for the weekend. My mother was my abuser, one sister who is coming resents me for being born, and the other I get along with reasonably well, so I hope she can hold everybody together.

This morning, as I sat down in the car to get ready to drive to work, the button on my pants popped. Fortunately the pants are tight enough to stay up by themselves ;-) and I'm wearing a long shirt.

Then, I get to work, carrying my keys and a box of pushpins -- the office manager here is so worthless at buying office supplies that I usually just buy my own and bring them in. As I'm transferring the box from one hand to the other, SPLAT! it goes on the floor. Box breaks. Pushpins everywhere.

As I'm on the floor rounding them up, with no help even though three people walked by, I stick myself. So now I'm BLEEDING all over the floor, picking up pushpins that I shouldn't have had to buy, in pants with no button.

The only thing that's saving me from being horribly P.O.'d this morning is that somebody brought in donuts. Although I shouldn't be eating them, given the tight pants. :-)

Oh well, the rest of the day has to improve, right?

Happy Monday....
