I think I feel better today because I had a wonderful draining CRY last night. The kind where you just sob and bawl your eyes out! It felt so GOOD! I hadn't cried in months. (I cried so much that my eyes were still red and swollen when I got up this morning.)

Do you know how awful it is to go months without crying (when you feel sad and want to cry)? There's just something about a good cry that is cleansing and makes me feel better.

Ok, confession time....I cannot cry when I am on my medicine. I couldn't cry if my life depended on it. And that feels terrible. So I reduced the med several days ago, and VOILA, a good cry followed.

I feel so much better!!! I got a lot done today. I cleaned out my pantry, all of my kitchen cabinets, and my hall closets. I have been throwing things away and taking stuff to Goodwill. It feels so good to get rid of things.

Tomorrow I want to start organizing photos....years of photos.

Ok, so all that wasn't so good for my back. Where's the Advil? I need to start calming down so I can sleep.
