YR I think that funk is common among us. I feel it alot. Not something that is there 24/7 but it comes and takes the wind out of the sails. A good bet is getting out and be in the sun. I tried to do that the last two days. Husband is in anniversary time and is in the recliner 24/7. Luckily we have had a great weekend on the east coast. He got a new shed and his friends nephew is doing the electric work in his shed and his uncles shed so I have been cooking all weekend for them. Dh goes out for a minute and back in the recliner.

I got some sad news today that a dear friend of mine of 38 years passed away this am. She was like a second mom to me. I got to see her this summer and I am glad of that. She had congestive heart failure and had a defibulator implanted. She was at her daughters in NC when she passed.

Please know we are always here when you need to vent, its a very cleansing thing to do, Its good for you. I am glad we have this place. I remember like you said just close up and not speak, things would build to a point where I was so far down I never thought I would pull out of it. Take care and cook for that son of yours. I wish your sister the best and all of the health and benefits come through. Its such a time at her age to have all of this.

Reality is determined not by what scientists or anyone else says or believes but by what the evidence reveals to us.
