Dec 2011

Fighting depression, again.
First Christmas EVER without my daughter.
The house seems so cold and lonely and frankly, I'll
be glad when Christmas and all is OVER.

Taking care of myself by not feeling obligated to do ANYTHING at all.
I'm just not up to it this year.
And that's okay.
Going to bake a little tonight and that is ALL.
I'm not going anywhere right now because I can't take the stress on the streets...
Not answering the phone, unless it is a family member calling.
I just need a lot of space to be alone right now.
Thank you DUer friends for being here tonight.
BHN
