July 4th

Jul 04, 2008 09:39PM - 2 comments

The Fourth of July as been an uneventful day, just as most of my days are. The same routine, day after day, with little hope for "true happiness", whatever that is.  It's like the word "normal" of which I'm yet to find the appropriate definition.  I didn't sleep too well last night, I think it was an excess of caffiene. Regardless, I was up at 0430 making my bed, doing my stretching, exercising and meditating.  Afterwhich I worked on a project for my son-in-law for about 30 minutes. Managed to get the dishes done and a load of laundry completed. The house has seemed very quiet today.  I napped a bit in front of the television this morning around 1000 hours, but only for about 30 minutes. I've tried to keep occupied today, my mind seems to be elsewhere. I'm not sad or depressed, anxious or manic. Just  kina numb. All my medications taken as prescribed although I had the urge ti p my valium dosage today for some reason, even though, as I said, I'm not feeling anxious. It's almost 2000 hours and it'll be time to feed the cats. After that, perhaps some television and an early bedtime. Tomorrow is another day and will be better.

I guess I'm sorry that I didn't see this journal yesterday, as I was having that same kind of day myself.  Regardless of the fact that I'm a day late, and yes usually a dollar short too, I want to take a minute to say hello.  I have been hoping through some of the forums here and have seen that your are a great contributor to them.  You not only take the time to respond to people who are in need, but you do so in a very compassionate way.  Hope today (the 5th) is a better day for you, because you derserve it :-) Thanks for all you do!

Namaste,

Sorry I haven't gotten back to you earlier, but I was relaxing in front of the television letting my mind melt down.

I appreciate you sending me this message. It's nice to receive compliments and thank yous'.  I do my best here(on the forums) to provide whatever information, support or guidance I can, within my abilities, which, I must say, are pretty good considering all the research I've done and know how to ddo on issues involving mental health.  Since I was so messed up, it was necessary to find ways to help myself and not allow the doctors' to have all the fun!

Thanks again, I'm sure we'll talk again.
