To everyone who saw my meltdown post the other day and commented, 
I know that I am not alone and I thank you, all.

Exerpt from Everybody Hurts by R.E. M.

Everybody hurts. take comfort in your friends.
Everybody hurts. dont throw your hand. oh, no. dont throw your hand.
If you feel like you're alone, no, no, no, you are not alone

Now that I have that

You sound much more positive. I think it's good to set goals that are achievable, setting the bar too high breeds despondency. I'm trying to do pilates every other day it really does help.

[softbluebuddy]

Well I do feel more positive. I think getting it out of my system may have helped me to move forward. Just a coincidence that it was at exactly the one year mark.

Thanks for the encouragement.

I saw your post the other day, but I'm basically running in and out the door these days so set it aside to come back to, however, now that you've mentioned it here I'm going to do what I was going do at the original post...

*hugsTIGHT*

Thanks. Yeah, that was a heavy post to have to reply to. Thanks for reading even though you were super busy and commenting on this one.

Laughing now, but yup, it is a post to set aside and come back to. If I didn't depress you so much you decided to end it before you could get back to your computer. See, I can laugh about it now, but believe me, I was crying when I wrote it.

btw-not bi-polar or anything, just f**ked up cause of a tough year. I am totally focussing on going forward.

*hugs back*

You know, that post was something you needed to do and now you can move forward with positive/good thoughts leading the way.

wow! you just inspired me!

[softbluebuddy]

Thanks so much. It makes me feel good when someone says that I inspired them even in some small way.

I'm going to take baby steps but hopefully all in the same direction so that I can meet my goals.

Thanks. :)

This will be your best year ever!! Bigger and better. :)

[softbluebuddy]

Thanks, Jane. It will be. It has to. And dammit, I am doing that hike Sunday morning even if it takes me twice as long as usual.

I so hope to be posting a few pics Sunday night. :)

Hugs back, Vince.

I am going to hang in there, because I have to. Seriously, I have got to hang tough, every day. Easier said than done, but that whole Deciding thing is going to make the difference. And, I decided to be strong.
