This thread's gone quiet the last couple of days......
I had a good Sunday - drove down and got my son who's been away at University for his first term, and brought him home for Christmas. He's happy, well and obviously thriving and it's great to have him home again for a while - spreading himself everywhere and eating like a horse. And apparently he's been telling his new friends about how 'cool' his Dad is.
I have to admit, 'cool' is not a word I would ever apply to myself but it feels kind of - well, cool - to have my eighteen year old describe me as such..........
It sounds like things have been moving along quite well most recently. Be sure to journal about this, write down how your feeling, what you are doing to feel this way...this way you can look back and see what worked for you. I'm glad things went well at work, I bet it was a relief to feel welcomed with open arms. Keeping working hard and being YOU!
Things went great at my new job - all the welcome backs - the hugs and reacclimating to the envrionment were uplifting. Learning I can work on getting my CADC (certified alcohol and drug counseling certification).
I got to babysit tonight! And she is the awesome-est granddaughter ever! She loves her BB (that's me).
I'm going to see my friend tomorrow. I fixed turkey, dressing and giblet gravy for him.
I fixed stuff for my daughter-in-laws birthday party tomorrow night. My son wanted to fix things and needed an idea and since they understand my wanting to see my friend; I contributed by cooking and givng him recipes for some other finger foods. My son the chef. rofl I hope he gets rave reviews.
I feel better since I started getting the vitamin B shots! I am getting more energy back - am thinking clearer. I don't think it's made the depression go away but energy and thinking help the depression get better. Stopping the other meds have helped too.
My dog loves me. Seriously, she does (tinkerbell).
I had a wonderful birthday yesterday. My son's court was put over to January, I got my nails done (cute candy canes for Christmas), my hubby bought some used WII games (so we now have 4 games for the WII), my hubby called me at 7:30 a.m. to wish me a happy birthday (he was on his way home from work). All of my kids remembered my birthday.
Both of my parents forgot my birthday (this is a good thing because it adds to my list of things to bring up to any therapist I may have in the future).
Today, I was able to clean out my sole-bank account at that bad bank who thinks they can take anyone's money and put it wherever they feel like it. Was just about able to do the same with the joint account, but they caught the error and couldn't release the funds. So close.....
Now I am going to finish my nice quiet day, with one boss, one other assistant and my quiet phones. Then I will pick up my daughter and her saxaphone and go home for the weekend. I believe I will just hunker down and turn up the heat. Windchills are supposed to be -37 and below. BRRRRRR.
I'm very impressed with everyone being able to find a positive thing in their day to post. I just can't seem to find anything positive these days. :-(
But, congratulations go out to Goofy on her new job (and getting through the chaos and calamity of the other day), Happy Birthday wishes to furgitit and kudos to Sid for her wonderful sense of giving.
I'll try again tomorrow for something positive to post.
