Hello there!
I wish you to also have "me-time" in between al the things you have to do and that you will enjoy the time spent with those you love the most 
Take good care for yourself!
@BeyondTheInvisible Thanks Beyond. Actually we should wish that to everyone with holidays coming. 😘
what are some activities you are doing lately? I skipped my usual exercise class because I was too depressed and upset.
did you have any change in your daily routine? No,not really.
how will you spend the weekend? Had Friday off, started making truffles, had rehearsal and then went over to GF's house. Today was my busy day, I looked at skis (bought a pair) and boots (decided not to buy a pair), went to a tea tasting with my daughter, got more work done on the truffles, talked to a solar installer.
how is your mood?' Not really very good. Haven't heard from GF since I left her this morning. Worried that she might be upset with me for some reason. We have worked all those out so far.
@Offmytrack Truffles and solar installer=awesome. ☺️
@Offmytrack
hi there, sorry to hear it is a difficult moment. Hopefully things can be on track soon.
You skipped class means you are in age of school?
Wish you a good new week ahead!
Thank you, @BeyondTheInvisible. Turned out there was no problem, she was out dancing. I skipped the class because I was upset about an incident that happened with my boss. Still bothering me.
@BeyondTheInvisible thanks for the checkin.
what are some activities you are doing lately? I did my shopping for Thanksgiving this week to beat the rush next week.
did you have any change in your daily routine? I like to do my work things in the morning when my energy level is high.
how is your mood?' Feeling good but all the leaves are down now. First snowfall so winter is here.
@soulsings
Hi Soul!
First snowffall already? awww !!
Wish you a nice Thanksgiving!
@BeyondTheInvisible my mood much better now. The people here are great. They listen. Reply and have not given up on me. There was a situation last week, and one person especially was helpful. Listening to my concerns. I am doing okay today. The weekend almost over so no plans. Just going to relax and maybe check back here in a little while. Watch the end of a football game.
Saturday was especially difficult for me. I had to attend a Celebration of Life for someone that passed. There were over 100 people in a small space and I only knew one person. I managed to start conversations with about 7 people, but as it got later I just got overwhelmed with social anxiety. I couldn
@Zengrl I hear you about large groups. They are difficult for me. I try to just relate to the person I am near and sometimes that works well but if that is awkward then I just want to excuse myself and go to the restroom. I have done that. Hanging out in the kitchen is another place I like hiding.
@soulsings I also love the kitchen, unfortunately this venue didn
@Zengrl I understand that also. I sometimes force myself to go out, but I have a back up plan to leave early if needed.. Im sorry for your loss.
@Lauren63 Thanks—it was a strange day with lots of mixed emotions. It
@Zengrl I dont cry, but right now I feel like crying. You and this place. What? Thanks. Still wont cry though!
@Lauren63 Thankful for you Lauren. Picturing you having fun with your dog makes me smile. ☺️
@Lauren63 Hope you find a way to cope with the sadness.
When my dad died two years ago I was only 2 seconds from crying all the time. It is better now.
@soulsings Two years is not that long. Lots of time needed for healing. Hoping there are lots of good memories there for you.
@Zengrl the last two years he spent in assisted nursing facility because could not ambulate. We shared meals together whenever I was there. I told him how much our fun times together meant. I said the things I always wanted to tell him. Lots of good memories.
@soulsings Aww I love that you said all the things you wanted to tell him. If everyone did that for their loved one the world would be amazing.
@Lauren63 Hey did I miss a post? Have you also lost someone recently?
@Zengrl
I can hear how rough this day was for you, HUGS 
.100 people in a small room coming together and in addition for a sad event would be overwhelming to me too. You did great by attending and leaving when you could not stay there anymore.
