My mate wished me a Merry Christmas today. A bit early but he does suffer from premature congratulations

Save money this Christmas by simply buying your kids an Easter Egg each and telling them they overslept.

Mick, wishing you a great day, love Wednesdays cause at one my work week is half over! Sent out my Christmas cards, continuing to buy for Christmas or think of ideas, my husband loves to give, which means I get to buy stuff, and he wraps. Christmas means alot to us, memories from the past, gratitude for the family we have today. You get to go somewhere fun don't you? That would be great too. Sipping my coffee, need another one to wake up. Have a good day!

MAE ALL....

Mick..Julie's interviews remind me of mine with 1 more to go. Hope her outcome is the opposite of mine. The party was worth dealing with the cold to get there. Yup there was booze but nobody performed, it was all very dignified. Was going to say no we had a hot meal and then got the pun. LOL Things are good with me, I've gotten over the worrying and nothing's stressing me out ATM. Think it's cause I got the elephant processed. ositive:

Start...hope you have a great day too.

Snoop...I'm going to need a thermos full this morning.

Pauly...you get the medicine cabinet cleaned out pronto. Don't need that happening again. Hope work speeds up for you today.

Lav...snow on hold, let me know when you're ready.

Glad I plugged the car in last night, currently -22C (-8F). No chinook in sight for 2 weeks!! It'll feel like a heat wave.
Have a great day all and all to come....:snowman:PPQP (found a snowman smilee)

Capital letters,8 character, a number blah,blah,blah,PQ,glad you had a good time,what did they serve? Hi Starty dentist right after work I'm sick of going over there, this will be it for awhile for me,it's fillings and I feel like I'm running out of teeth to fill anyways, me and Louie tried to put our gingerbread house together last night and the roof kept destroying it! I'm gonna try and put it on this morning so it can settle in, much love to all and I hope we all have a wonderful AF Wednesday

Evening greetings ABerooos!

sorry to be a stranger, just been going through a weird mood thing. Maybe a winter depression?
anyway I've been isolating and just not feeling myself. no harm done other than just being no fun, but trying
to pry myself back into my fun, happy state.

will catch up soon. Until then everyone have a stellar thursday!

be well loves

[treetops]

is there someone you can talk to Det? Just try to interact a little but each day and dont cut yourself off. I think its important to acknowledge that you are depressed.
Take care - sorry I dont have answers myself at the moment as I am in the midst of depression. In my instance its not seasonal, its not related to diet or to my physical health. Its just huge stuff going on in my career and I feel quite helpless in the midst of all of this.

Thought I would pop in. I've been enjoying a few days off.

Mick-congrats on Amy's engagement! Hope that Julie gets the job. I am loathing the idea of interviewing again, they make it so complicated these days. HR departments seem to like to give these silly tests these days.

PPQ-I don't envy your weather. The other day I had a bit of frost on my car and refused to get out and scrape it off. If my northern friends could see me now

Det-I try to not give the blahs too much attention. I'll just motion through those periods knowing that they will end. I do try to get extra sleep. Mine will last around 3 days and then it's like they vanish for no reason---which is the same way they come in.

TT-Sorry you are still dealing with the work stuff. I know it can wear on you to the point of exhaustion.

We got a dog--we haven't had one for about 10 years. We love having her here, she fits nicely in with the family.

My work basically gives us unlimited therapy sessions. So I decided to go with the aim of figuring out my next career move. I've never had good experiences with therapists. But I do really like this one. I'm aiming to try to have an adult job sometime in the spring. I still love working at the health food store, but it's not a long term gig for me. It's been good too to see what working for a company that treats its people well is like.

I've stopped going to my support groups. It's good only for so long and the universe usually steps. I got tired of meeting people for coffee to only have them try to sell me on their "network marketing" gig. Then I had one woman not like something I said....and threaten my anonymity. The thing that got me on that one, was she has been in the program for 20 years and anonymity is in the freaking name of the group.

With that I've kind of have latched on to things like Hip Sobriety (podcast) and others. It's refreshing to see that there are more people speaking up on "other" ways to recover. I've become more tuned into my unconcious mind. I can go months without remotely wanting a drink....then boom something seems to have triggered. I'm not so concerned with the trigger these days because they are all around us. Alcohol companies spend billions on that. More interesting though has been my recognition that the unconcious can work very much in the same way with things I've been told in recovery circles. I never bought into the fear tactics of many support groups....it doesn't mean that my unconcious brain wasn't absorbing it on some level. We are fed so much bullshit....that our conscious minds aren't always the ones in control. Anyways, glad to see some of this alternative recovery coming more to the forefront. They are also working to change the stigma.....with the intention that if there isn't this huge stigma more people would address the problem sooner, with more options readily available to them. I wish more of this stuff had been around way back when I had started to try to get sober. I still think it needs to be easier to find, but definitely easier today than back in 2004.
