Mojo and good vibes heading your way. But why are you feeling low, old friend?

Stay strong. Bad times come. . .      but good times often follow.  I hope this will happen for you.

Re: Feeling Down

As a licensed counselor who has been fighting major depression for years, I can identify. It always helps me to push myself to be active and do fun things; it isn't always easy to do, though. Hang in there, sir!

 

Here is a song that always makes me feel better.

Re: Feeling Down

Mojo sent, Pops. And keep playing that guitar. Guitars are love machines that can turn darkness into light.

She's the lady of the light
Yellow incandescent night
Tiger eyes burning bright
In the understory
I can't see the forest
For the branches and the leaves
But I believe
I do believe

From "Tiger Eyes", by me:

Re: Feeling Down

Keep a happy thought, Poppy.  Good times just around the corner.

 

I know what you mean about health problems.  Sometimes you just have to grab the bull by the balls and hang on.  He'll get tired eventually, and then you can enjoy the steak.

 

Prayers and mojo sent.  Keep your chin up.

Re: Feeling Down

I know.  I haven't heard from Precious either.  

I usually find consolation in knowing that things could get worse.    This is always a slow time of year for the BotB, PoppyT.  Things will pick up again once people know what their tax bite is, which let's don't go there now.  

Would a String Swing wall hanger help cheer you up?  I know... probably not, but not even a little bit?   The wife kicked me out of my basement space to make room for more maple and now I've got a couple extra um... not hanging around.  You're welcome to them both if you want 'em.  I'll turn on my PMs.

Anyway, either way I'm pulling for ya.

Re: Feeling Down

Hang in there Poppy, I was in the same place myself the last month or 2 actually, had another seizure (a bad one) came round with 3 broken ribs, no way of telling the docs how it happened other than, "I had a seizure..." and it was on top of a whole load of other stuff. Recently, something occurred to me, there is something that keeps me going, keeps me getting up in the morning and keeps me on this side of my 16th storey balcony (kidding...kinda...) As others have said, there love here for you and ANYTHING could be round the corner. God bless.

Re: Feeling Down

Cheers, my kentucky brother. I am going through the same funk. I've dealt with major depression all my life too, and lately, it has been fairly major. I'll keep my chin up and hope you will too.

mojo and a prayer to you.
