    I'm doing pretty good and feeling blessed and generally good but am so busy and feeling a little overwhelmed with all there is to do at times. Yesterday I didn't get to leave work to pick up my children until 4:15 from school, we ran errands until 4:45, then they had football practice from 5:30 until 7- I ran and walked on the track during it- and then we ate supper and were up until 11 doing homework. I did one load of laundry and every day I'm just winging it- I can't catch up- I know I will- but jeez I'm tired and ready for a break and the school year just started!!!!

    I'm really really struggling with developing the motivation to exercise regularly even though I really enjoy it when I do it- I LIKE to exercise- but I guess I put myself last day after day- and maybe that's admirable but not very smart and I'm not taking the best care of this one body that I have for this one life I've been given!!!

    I'm struggling with cleaning this room and organizing it in a way that Damian and I can both live comfortably in it, and so that he can have a place for his things. And I'm struggling with addiction.

    kristy, are you clean yet? have you decided you need to quit yet and don't know how- or you know you should quit and don't really want to- or what? you're so honest and ballsy in your talk and sometimes I really do think about you and hope you're okay- I hope you're okay!!!!!

    cina: Okay, I dont know quite how to put this so that people will understand or even believe me, because believe me when I say this ... I know it sounds like bullshit. I know that I was supposed to walk this path. I knew when I started this. I know it's wrong and I know it's going to cause me a lifetime of crap, but this is where I'm supposed to be. I needed to go this way to meet some of the people that I needed to meet and get to the things I'm getting to. Yes, I'm addicted and yes it's terrible. I know when I decide to quit that it'll be tough, but I know it'll still probably be easier for me than most. There are days when I think I absolutely hate this and wish that it were different, but still even then I know in that still part of my mind that it's still supposed to be this way. I dont, for once, feel totally comfortable explaining this to a whole group so if you want ... I'll totally tell you in private. Just ask!

    Ugh! Single mom of 3 kids. Got up from my work chair last night and possibly stress fractured my foot so Dr. put me in walking boot and crutches! NOT what I needed. Hope it heals fast

    Kristy, I was just asking honey because I see how conflicted you are at times and I just wish the best for you. Just take care of yourself, okay? Sorry if I'm mothering you, I tend to do that, sorry!!!!LOL!!!

    Today I'm struggling with being well. I thought I was diving headlong into a major depressive state but finally last night I got really sick (high fever, chills, diarrhea, aches, pains, etc.) and realized I had felt bad all week and probably had a low grade fever (thought it was hot flashes)and that my funk was probably more physical than mental. SO I'm relieved that I'm not headed for the funny farm.
    I'm having a halloween party for my boys on Halloween. My 14 year old's friend's mom and I decided to do it together at my house- because they were too old to trick or treat- but now I don't know if it's going to be any fun or if anyone will show up and I'm too sick right now to really whip the back yard into shape and I'm worried it'll all end up being a big disappointment for all of us.
