In response to "Thursday pits"

Hi ☺️ 🐭🐁, with so many getting awards for fantasy glad you got one for reality 🎉! I get How you feel and see the same types of life reflections in my own mind's mirror. Up till 2 years ago, had an awesome counselor. Knew her for about 6 years or so.
Since we moved to Mississippi good luck with having someone like that!...
I'm glad you write about what's real, good or bad. You express how many people feel and don't always have the strength to write.

Glad I saw 🪚 your award and found my way here!
Congratulations 🎉🥳 you earned it.

How awful! Sending positive thoughts for her recovery and things to work out with your dog.

In response to "Mind Fog"

My spirit animal is a deer. I love Kristy Parker without the s at the end. Here is another idea. Take your chapter book, download it to your computer or wherever you keep stuff, removing it from WdC. Then you won't always be looking at it and possibly bringing it up then sitting staring at it. Do that with any other unfinished stuff. Give yourself a fresh start. I find writing very simple poems rewarding. I just copy the rhyming schemes of other poems I read because there are way too many types of poems. I am not good at it, but it doesn't take much time or deep thought to write. I took a couple of my things that I just never liked off and feel I did myself a favor not risking someone reviewing them when like you said they were crap. I am great at giving out advice when I need to take some of my own advice which includes writing more consistently. Good luck!

In response to "Blessings and presents"

I agree that the more you think about how you should be writing, the less likely it is for you to sit down and do it. I would hate to restart something I had started. Much down the road you can heavily edit it. I think you can just write without any mind to grammar/spelling/editing. It doesn't have to be perfect or even all of it will you keep. Maybe focus on something else that gives you pleasure. Maybe a group you belong to or just blogging. I think you say a lot in very few words so that is a plus for you. You can always do a few reviews which will be much appreciated and don't take a lot of writing. Just an idea.

In response to "Mind Fog"

I have three novels and an autobiography in my head. Yesterday I worked on two and made very little progress. I almost feel desperate because I am getting older everyday ...
I enjoy your names. I played with pen names since I was a kid too.

What a cute little mouse! He deserves to be a Merit Badge. You should contact Pubby!

In response to "Helpful?"

So nice that you so eloquently express your thoughts and feelings.
But then, so many people have helped me without asking for anything in return, and not just a few. In any case, I don't ask for help unless I have no other choice.

In response to "unexpected gifts"

I don't know if you still can, but you used to be able to buy stamps through the mail. Though that doesn't help the cost. You can buy cheaper stamps for postcards, but then you have to buy the postcard.

It's probably cheaper to just buy regular stamps and use a piece of paper and envelope to send the stuff instead of buying a postcard.

Good luck with Social Security. The website is great, if everything goes smoothly and you fit neatly into the little hole you're supposed to. But if something goes wrong such as forgetting your password or moving and not telling them, things can quickly get complicated.

Enjoy the goodies I send. I'll likely quit when I get back to the US.

darkness taking over

The more I think about the way I feel the more I can't explain it. I spent most of today crocheting because Terry didn't want me hiding in my room. I snuck in here a couple of times to write and once to take a nap. I'm in here now to once again face a night where I have to confront the darkness that dwells within.

I know one thing that CMH cannot help me deal with or explain away. My pain. It seems to be getting worse (the rainy weather not helping) especially in my feet and hands. My sinuses have been draining and I taste blood in the back of my throat all the time. I am so hot most of the time......

I don't want to talk about this crap tonight. No one is going to do anything about it.

Everybody still asks: What is going on that has got you so down? I can't tell people what I don't know. I still firmly believe that it is all chemical. My medications are not working........

I guess I just keep going through this robotic existence (going through the motions) until something breaks.......

I still feel shattered........ fractured.......... broken. I've been starting to lose time again which is never a good sign.

I've tied a knot at the end of the rope and I'm trying to hold on until Monday.
