Paying It Forward

Readers of my blog know I've been M.I.A from January until the end of April, battling a crippling bout of depression that pretty much led me in bed unable to move. It was awful. Everything went out the window. I stopped bathing. I stopped grooming. Show More Summary

I'm still here

I'm still here. I never thought I would be away for almost four months and I apologize. I have a lot to write about, if I can find the words. Suffice it to say it was the worst depression I've ever had, though I've said that about most of the depressions I have had lately. Show More Summary

Why I Hate New Years Eve

This is my most popular post. Nothing has changed in the time I've written it. Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, my least favorite night of the year. The best way I know how to cope with it is to go to sleep around 9 pm so when I wake up around 3 am it's over. In most ways, 2012 has been the worst year of my adult life. Show More Summary

Trying not to be a Grinchette

I'm here. If I said the last few months, if not this last year has been horrible, I don't know if too many people would believe me. It has been impossible to write. I stay in bed most of the day because that is all I can do. I've wanted to write and I try, but I didn't. Show More Summary

Touching Base

Hello I'm still here. Been battling a very bad depression, couldn't get out of the bed, couldn't write, didn't want to burden anyone with how bad it was going. There was a lot of talk about hospitalization, and a medication that would...Show More Summary

World Suicide Prevention Day, September 10, 2012

Today is World Suicide Prevention Day. Almost every site I have seen have places to call if you are feeling suicidal, and lots of history and statistics of suicide. Some bloggers are adamant that suicide can be prevented. Some aren't. Show More Summary

High Dives and un fluffy pillows

I'm deathly afraid of heights. One nightmare that keeps playing over and over in my head is a true account, yet I am dreaming about it almost nightly. Growing up my sister and I were very close to a neighbor, one of the nicest widows you would ever want to meet. Show More Summary

Rerun and update: Susan an Introduction

I apologize if I haven't been writing. The mind is willing, the flesh is weak. I found a piece I wanted to share again, and just add a few updates. It was originally written in  2002. I re wrote it again for the blog in 2009. Since then, I have become med free, because of the kidney failure. Show More Summary

World Cat Day 8/8/2012

Today is World Cat Day. It's a holiday where you must spoil your cats rotten. Oh wait, that's every day.  Still and all they say "every dog has his day" and today is the day where dogs are pushed aside and it's all about the fabulous...Show More Summary

We're not the only ones who get depressed

This should come as no surprise, especially to those of us who have animals in our lives. According to a just published news article, monkeys are being treated for depression in Argentina. The article states that, black howler monkeys...Show More Summary

Major Problems with Blog right now

Hi. It appears someone or something has removed page elements and several things have been removed from my blog from posts to elements on the side. I don't know what to do, I am having no such luck contacting Blogger, but I was ableShow More Summary

Wednesday Wonders- Henri

If you're like me, you've hardly been on the computer the last few days. It's a good thing in my case, I've been getting out and doing things. Today was the first day since last Saturday where I did have a bout of agoraphobia. I've been...Show More Summary

Crossroads

Crossroads. My life, ever so turbulent, takes another turn. I'm trying little things to ward off feelings of sadness, by using little tricks I've learned. Since I am not working, I get up every day at the same time. No hitting the alarm clock for extra ZZZZ's. Every day has to have a routine. Show More Summary

Avoiding Triggers and Bad News

I don't want to write this piece, but I feel like it's mandatory. Unless you've been off line the last day or so, once again the US had a fatal public shooting, this time during a midnight opening showing of the new "Batman" movie. Once again, the media, doing what they do, run an interview the survivors. Show More Summary

There before the grace

It's been hotter than Hades here on the East Coast. Indeed, news reports are saying it's the warmest weather in over 100. Records are being smashed. All I know, baby it's hot outside. So I stay inside, with a semi working air conditioner that is doing the best job to keep me cool. Show More Summary

Error Code

For some reason, some people, including me, have tried to access this blog today and are receiving an error code from Blogger. I've notified Blogger and let them know. If this happens to you, keep hitting refresh button until the blog comes up on line. It should take two or three hits. I am sorry for any problems this may have caused.

Lazy, Hazy, Days of Summer

Confusion. Sometimes my brain is so confused I don't know if I am coming or going. So what else is new? I've been tired. Tireder than anything. You know you are tired when you are sleeping more hours a day than a cat. It's not the sleep...Show More Summary
