Catching up.
I'm taking a page out of one of my friend's journals and putting my own spin on it.
I've not been around for a while (at least, not around and conscious) and I miss you guys. Yall are, after all, among my closest friends, and feeling this distant from you all makes me sad.
I'm trying to catch up on your journals, but I'm finding it difficult. So many things must've happened in the past month. In an effort to help me catch up, you could complete the following if you like. You could consider it a meme if you are so inclined.
Please respond to this post and tell me:
* Your greatest joy in the past month or so.
* Your greatest sorrow in the past month or so.
* Your silliest moment in the past month or so.
* A dream you had in the past month or so.
* One thing you've accomplished in the past month or so.
...and, being a good sport, I shall do the same:
* My greatest joy has been discovering how much more mobility I have with Storm as my nearly full-time service dog. I still am sometimes embarassed by my need for such support (and often question said need), but he's alerted me enough to give me some confidence in my choice.
* My greatest sorrow has been finding out that I'm still having a lot of anxiety around writing my thesis, and that it is enough to prevent progress. I have done a little, though.
* My silliest moment was screwing around with my sister and some high school buddies back in WI during my Spring Break. We got pretty silly in the coffee shop.
* I have been having a lot of dreams lately. They've been long, detailed, and are most definitely reflective ones. For some reason I cannot remember any details now, but many of them have dealt with my health and becoming comfortable with admitting that I am disabled.
* I have been keeping up on my housekeeping... well, better than I was before, anyway.
...next? I'm really looking forward to your responses. Please help me catch up!
