Thanks for your kind words, I too write at the drop of a hat....A gift indeed... Anyone who truly suffers I am here to help with what I write....Thank you again for being so kind and not sitting in judgement upon me as this is from my heart. My dream to heal others is just beginning, life slowly unfolds before my eyes, i see the beauty in all that lyes beneath the surface, darkness has lifted and is now veiled in beauty and bright color.....

Looking forward to a little silliness today...we sure do need it. I must admit that I felt a little guilty last night when I posted a funny post to nekocats about the origin of my user name. I saw it after I posted it and it was sitting between pleas for help and sad stories....it looked a little disrespectful of me and very out of place...but then again, humor has been a part of me and the way I deal with things for a long time! Also, if we can't be silly...if we can't tell things about ourselves...how else we will ever begin to get to know each other and who we really are.

So bring on the sillies!!! I, for one, look forward to it!

Well I would have rather cut my legs off than get out of bed this morning. I didn't even want to open my eyes and look around. But once I got up and in the shower and too work I was okay, I guess. Feeling extremely sad today, just want to sit in a room all by myself and not talk to anyone. I've tried it and it doesn't solve anything, just makes your mind wander more. I am so ready for my son to come home its unreal. All that I can think about is holding him and kissing him. Ready for this day to be over already. Oh well I will try and make the best of it. Hell, I can't even focus on my work.

One week from today, my 17 year old son, my youngest of two, is leaving for a trip with his high school drama group. They have been invited as part of a US high school contingent to present a one act play for the Fringe Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland. I know that this is a big deal and a wonderful opportunity...heck, I spent the better part of this past school year helping to raise the $100,000 necessary to allow them to go...but I'm a little anxious about the first few days of the trip. They will be arriving in London first and will have two full days of some wonderful tours and shows...then it's off to Scotland. With the recent incidents in London, I am trying so hard not to freak out about him going there. I keep reminding myself that they will only be on chartered buses...no need for the "tube" which really helps, but I'm also anxious about having him go so far away....

I need to keep telling myself that I don't need to limit his life experience because I am a nervous mom. After all, he'll be going to college next year! (and boy will I need you guys then!!! LOL) I need to keep my focus on the postive...work hard to help him get ready and packed...and not do my usual "taking to the sofa" routine I do when I am down about something. Of course, I'll really need to remember that next week after he leaves. Not only will he be gone, but my oldest will be returning to college!! I'll be a busy little poster next week, you can be sure!

You hit the nail on the head. I suffered from depression before I got pregnant with my son and while I was pregnant with my son. Before I got pregnant my doctor put me on celexa and I hated the way it made me feel, I told him I was getting off of it, and I have yet to take another anti depressant. I am hard headed I guess you could say. I want to beable to beat this thing all on my own, and I am finding little by little that it just sneaks back up on me. After I had my son it was like I was a whole new person. I could stand on my own feet and keep my head up by myself, I realized that I didn't need a guy in my life, all that I needed was my son. He & I did great for a while, then I started to get lonely. So I buried my head into my online classes for college and thats where I stayed. Little by little I started to go out with friends, and what do u know...I met my "now" husband. He walked into my life and saved me from whatever it was that was creeping up on me. It was great, and then we got engaged, bought a house and started planning. I slipped right back down in that hole during my wedding planning. Decided about 2 weeks before the wedding that I didn't want to get married and that he wasn't the one for me. Funny how that dark hole surrounds you. Well we went through with the wedding (that was April 30) he is a great person and a loving father and husband. I just can't seem to get myself happy with anything. With my son there I covered it up and spent most of my time with him. But with him being gone I thought well this will be a great time for my husband and I, boy was I wrong. We haven't fought, we just haven't talked. I have buried myself in my work, in my chores, in my computer. Whatever it is I can do to avoid him, and I have no idea why.
