Late Night Chats
Jun. 13th, 2011 03:03 amHow very nice once again to stay up sipping wine and chatting deeply w/Dear Friend ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
hollyteige here at the Hive. Things become clearer. Realizations explode.
I've been feeling depressed on 'n' off lately. Well, as I've now realized anew, 'twas just 5 weeks ago today that I became kittenhead-free for the 1st time in 15 years (thus 50% longer than my r-ship w/my ex-hubby). And a new Dear Friend's trying his darndest to slay his cancerous beastie once again. Various folks (friends 'n' fambily) are at transitional moments in their lives. The world's going through some really tough 'n' rough sh!t right now (and in the foreseeable future).
Somehow the fact that there's some Really Good reasons for feeling low and falling into a funk makes me feel better 'bout it. It's not just me and/or I'm not just crazy. I'm actually reacting somewhat reasonably to tricky situations. This helps me lots to remember.
Trying to show compassion towards myself, to not beat myself up, to boldly split infinitives, blah blah blah Sleepiness finally starting to hit. I know what I need to do: go outside, take walkies, eat well, sleep well, reach out as needed. Now to do it. Next up: sleeping well.
Meanwhile, I'm excited 'n' bouncy now 'bout making some new friends, 'bout new possibilities, 'bout upcomings (planned 'n' not yet), 'bout the unknown, 'bout life the universe 'n' everything.
*yawn* And now to bed, perchance to dream...
