Hi, thanks for keeping me in the loop. I have not been very responsive. I have been dealing with a lot of home issues.
How have you been feeling these days? Not sure, maybe feeling burned out.
How was your week overall? Very intensely hectic
Which were the brightest moments in your week? When the contractors finished building my deck
Which were not-so-bright moments? That they half did a lot of the work and they are going to have to redo or give my money back.
What do you wish to achieve this weekend? closure on all the projects to my satisfaction.
It is always hard with contractors in the house. I hope that your weekend is more peaceful. @scarletPear1945

Thank you friend❤️
I've got another 24 hours of icing my neck before I can move on to using heat to treat it. Sleeping only seemed to make it feel worse, so I have that going for me.
I think the only positive thing I can report is that when I politely reminded my friend that it had been almost three weeks since I asked for the call, and was it possible for us to talk when she was free (if she wasn't still stuck on a days long trip driving around from place to place which had been the reason for us not calling before) she said we'd chat over the weekend.
I'm trying to persuade myself to do some chores since my laundry basket is overflowing and my kitchen sink is full of dirty dishes, but I just don't care about it sometimes.
Ouch. I hope that the neck feels better soon. Sometimes all of the stress goes to certain body spots. @integrityblues
I can't sleep and my parents might be getting divorced
So, I guess I'm feeling Numb, I just don't know what I feel
My week was great until my parents announced it
I found something I'm really good at, and I love it
Not so bright moment was the news
I want to relearn how to be happy
Give yourself a little time here. News like that takes time to process. I think at first you wonder how things could possibly work out. Then they gradually unfold.
What kinds of things are you doing for yourself to give you a little extra love right now?@Lemongirl479
I've spent most of my time with friends and extended family, but I still feel so alone
I know. It is hard to find a good cruising speed after news like that. There are lots of fears that come up. Remind yourself that you aren't alone. There are still lots of people that love you.
Keep checking back and we will keep encouraging you. @Lemongirl479
I feel overwhelemed these days
My week was enegrized but then my weekend is ruined
When I feel energized on friday. Weekdays were very busy. I went to places.
I just dont get enough credit for what I did. I've been very productive yet people call me did nothing.
I just wanted to enjoy myself and not to meet so many people and face too many questions about myself.
So are weekends more problematic? Sometimes they give us too much time to think. @Wildredberry
Horrible. I feel horrible. I don’t have any friends and my partner doesn’t even like me. He’s with me because he loves my three kids but if it wasn’t for them he’d be gone.
my self esteem is in tatters. I have no one to talk to. I did send an inquiry to a therapist so maybe that will help.
I keep thinking how they would all be better off without me.
I don’t have any bright moments. I don’t have anyone.
I am so sorry that you are struggling. Depression can be so frustrating. Therapy can help a great deal. What kinds of things are you doing to care for yourself?@Pinkie256
