Getting back on track...

Jan 09, 2007 17:06

It's been over a month since my last post and I'm nearly that far behind in reading my friends page; I fear I will not be able to catch up, so I am just going to start over.

The last thirteen months, in a nutshell, have been stressful, upsetting and difficult for me to deal with. ( The bad stuff... )

productivity, negative, new year, positive, new start, crap, mourning, stress, insomnia, new beginning, deaths, lots of crap

*hugs* Yep, I know you know where I'm coming from. Dayamn, girl, I agree one hundred percent: 2007 had better show some improvements.

Thanks, btw. I also saw a pic yesterday that reminded me of Juan. So it's been a little rough as of late. Christmas, I found myself really missing the people who had died years ago: Mom's parents, Nanny, Juan... it's just been too much all in such a short time. I realize I'll meet up with them again, but it's just too much loss for one year. I'm done. (You hear me, Universe? *shakes fist*)

Anywho, thanks. I just know that I've been a hermit more over the past year than usual and felt people deserved an explanation or reasonably good excuse from me. *laughs and hugs you*

*hugs* *joins in the '2007 better be better' category*

I don't know if you've seen since you mostly haven't been reading, and I can't remember who has and hasn't commented (sadly, I've been too stressed), but my parents both died last month also.... I'm still just in shock. And I figured I'd say it here so that if you hadn't seen it, the fairly-frequent 'remembering my parents' posts and suchlike might be a bit less unexpected/unnerving.

*HUGS right back*

Yeah, actually, I did manage to catch up on that much from your blog, as I caught a comment or two in more recent ones and went back looking. I don't expect you to recall my poke at you about it because, well, there must have been dozens upon dozens of people who did the same. Once again, you have my deepest sympathies, darlin'. I can't even imagine. Seriously.

But we can both relate on one note or another, right? Sadly. :(

Much love. Hang in there and know you're not alone.

*hugs and nods* Sadly, yeah. 2006 was not a good year. It looked so promising for a while, but....

*sighs and hugs lots*

All we can do is keep going, because frankly, that's what they'd want us to do and what we /should/ do. It sounds crass, but it's just a fact that life does go on; we just never forget and some days are easier than others. At first, though, it's really really hard to just focus on functioning and 'going through the motions' to keep yourself barely afloat. But we do it and things do get a little easier over time.

That's assuming the universe decides to /give/ us that time to heal before the next curve-ball is tossed our way.

They say life is what we make it, so let's make 2007 better, hm?

Btw, I got your card: thank you, it was lovely. :)
