My procrastination is running amok. And to top it off I’m not sure if the camping is helping or not. One of the reasons we came out here, here being the local campground Syringa Creek Provincial Park, was for some R&R. After all, isn’t that why everyone goes camping? I have some small jobs that …
I have been quite faithful in maintaining my journal, or morning pages, and most days quite look forward to it. Today was no exception, however the day started off at a pace faster than I first appreciated and I missed that first crucial step, relax and write. Perhaps there are no “good excuses” but the …
I had another session with Gloria tonight (my counselor) and the conversation ranged from parental parenting, as in dealing with my Dad, to latent feelings of grief and loss. We even threw a little bit of emotional support regarding crying and “triggers” when it comes to loss, and the strong emotions that can come forward …
Well it’s the Queen’s birthday today, and not not the Queen of England or some such country, but the Queen of my house, Mo. She acquired that name from our friend Andrew, he annointed her with it during one of our house renovations where he came to do the job and I helped. I’m not …
I just read a little bit of a blog called “The Pursuit of Happiness”. This gent has been online blogging for few years and is suffering from depression. I can’t pretend to explain fully his travels but it’s enough to say he’s had a go of it. He is in the process of trying herbal …

I certainly do that, I can have 3 or more books going or many projects started, going great guns but seldom finishing any before moving on, to something …
Still continuing to work on getting Dad here, it seems to consume all my time and most of my focus. In reality it doesn’t consume ALL my time however it feels like it. I struggle to blog about how I feel, or how I’m doing as it feels like all I am revolves around helping …
I feel pretty upbeat this morning, better than many mornings lately. Not that I have felt poorly just not as “up” as today. The trick now will be to determine why, if there’s an external reason or if it’s strictly a function of meds operating on my body. Gloria (my therapist) has said many times …
It appears that keeping up the posts is a bigger challenge than I’ve anticipated, maintaining a schedule should not be too hard even though I can’t seem to achieve it. I’m just waiting now for my appt with Gloria, don’t really know what we’ll chat about and I hope it will be fruitful. One of …
