January Blues

I just need to get these out of my system so I can move onward and upward...

If it's going to be this cold, we could at least have some snow with it.

Christmas is over and I've already forgotten what I got.

I've broken three of my new year's resolutions already.

My yard thought Spring was coming because of the warm period we had and now all of my new buds are gonna get their little selves frozen to death.

Christmas bills are starting to come, even though I swore off credit cards two years ago????

I had to uncheck all of the Christmas songs on my iTunes so they won't play and make me depressed.

I'm on a diet, so I can't eat my way to happiness.

Are you blue? Get it off your chest too!

    i'm just depressed that i have totally checked myself out of work mentally, but have to keep showing up to get things done until the baby comes. i seriously can't get out of bed in the mornings.

    your crayon illustration cracked me up, though!

    and oh my goodness... we're going to have to discuss lost every week together!

    Yep, I'm in a funk too! It seems to happen each January even though I go into the month on a high (my b-day is the 5th) and have great hopes for the rest of the month. Never quite pans out like I picture it though.

    Hope you start feeling better soon!!

    I'm feeling the post-Christmas let-down, too. And I'm ready for warm weather!

    If you start a petition to Mother Nature for warmer weather, I'll be the first to sign :)

    I personally think you look perfectly beautiful the way you are--no diets necessary! So I say, go have yourself a hot fudged sundae and smile!

    January is SO awful! I've been having to remind myself that it's just that time of the year & things will get better! They will!

Happy Pills

I'm a crazy person. At least, that's what I feel like some times. And it runs in my family. No, not really crazy (and don't take offense if you are one of me), but just clinically depressed and filled with anxiety. It's as if I don't have something to worry about in my head constantly, then I don't feel normal. Luckily, there's a pill for that. It's a bitter pill, one that I'll basically have to take the rest of my life, but I've slowly accepted that it's like any other disease, and just like diabetes or heart disease, that little pill is gonna make me better. But that little pill makes me gain weight, gives me the brain shivers when I miss it, and although I've tried to get off it multiple times, I just can't. So I guess that makes me an addict as well. But it's a pill that my grandparents and family didn't always have, and they suffer from it as well, so I should be thankful for this little red capsule of happiness...
