Wow, it's been almost a month since I've written down my thoughts. I wish I could say it was because I've been so busy that I haven't had time. But that is just a wish. Nothing new has really happened. My ankle is still a mess, my back is still a mess, and I still haven't found that ever elusive job.

Depression is a funny thing. Some days I feel like I'm on top of the world and the next day I can barely get out of bed. Somehow I feel like I'm standing at the window of life peering in. And the worse part is that I want to participate, but I don't seem to know how. I have been forcing myself to get out of the apartment. I've been able to go into Chicago and just tool around the suburbs. It's nice to get out, but within a couple of hours I want to go home.

So for those of you who have read this, bear with me. I'll be back to my ole self soon. As for me.....I need to keep taking it one day at a time. No looking back, no regrets, only look ahead and see all the possibilities waiting out there.

In the meantime I could really use a hug.
