what a night--well wishes to all who come here

my daughter went to a friend's house for the evening
so...i had plenty of time to think
and reminisce
and meltdown for awhile
watched the movie Noel (which might or might not have been a mistake--but i love that movie)
i can't even muster up the usual annual sense of of accomplishment(?)/relief(?) with "well, i got through another year" (my second thought was: "big deal.&quot

and to anyone whose heart felt broken
here's to you you're not alone

and to absent friends and loved ones:
until we meet again

meltdowns by the dozens.

Some days I feel like I'm really losing it and wonder at the sense in going on. But go on I must.

I managed to get sick a couple of days ago and it's progressed into some sort of upper respiratory / junk / cough/ irritation
so that's not helping with my mood at all.

I miss my Mum, and I miss my family at home in Ontario.

Instead of getting better it feels like it's getting worse some days.

Thank you Orleans for posting.

May I wish you a happy new year with all the best to you and yours.

kesha.
