Congrats to all of you. Well done!
This past 2 years have been a blur for me, and one hell of a roller coaster ride. I'm a first-time grandma, my "baby" graduated and turned 18, I lost both parents (Does that mean I'm an orphan?) and a few assorted other loved ones, I was laid-off, moved to a new city; but life goes on, and we do the best with what we've got. I'm actually suprised and a bit proud I didn't fall back into the bad habits I once had "to see me through" (If you catch my meaning?)
There's only one word I can think of that describes the way I feel today: "Blue". I'm not sad or depressed, I'm not happy or giddy, not nostalgic or homesick but longing for the past anyhow...I was told this is normal, and it will pass with time. I know my kids are relatively happy and healthy, grandbaby is too, friends are having similar trials and tribulations which makes me feel almost normal again (LOL).
Raise a glass to the future for me, and I'll do the same for you. Cheers! |

Thanks Patti. Some of the "mum" comments were made with you partially in mind. |
