Clean, exercise, read, visit a friend, surf the web, cook, shop.  Depression has a way of keeping us from doing things.  The trick for me is get up a do something so it doesn't get a good hold of me.  Good luck!!!

It's raining like crazy where I am, kids are school. I'm on my ninth day off norco 10s. I started cleaning and doing little odd jobs around the house. It helped pass some time and I accomplished something. Feels pretty good. It seems like it's tough to get started but once I did my energy kinda kicked in. Just my thoughts. Hang in there, maybe it will be nice weather tomorrow. Good luck!
