*well I rarely start a topic - I usually just answer, but this has been kinda on my mind and Im wondering if anyone else feels this way...
Well Im not looking forward to tomorrow (Tday) and (I feel kinda guilty about that)simply because I never know, how I will feel hour to hour let alone day to day so it makes me feel a little worried about the whole thing.
I know that I need to keep positive and enjoy myself etc... etc... I mean my brain knows all that stuff but it doesnt always help me because to me its added pressure- my mom will expect me to be a certain way and I will give it to her cause its the least I can do, after all her trouble making the beautiful dinner that I know she will have prepared.
And oh dear... the hour car ride is hard on my body too but I know there are people that have to travel alot farther... but arrggg its just hard. I have alot to do today/tonight just to prepare my aching ass to get up there on time (which is a whole other story lol) I just hope it will be a lighter pain day so I can enjoy and not be silently in pain -of course with a fake smile for those that expect it- I mean we would NEVER show how we REALLY felt now would we- the point is to see my family that I love.
Anyone else feeling this way about tomorrow?
I hope you all have a wonderful day!!
I better go get some stuff done~~~~~

So, I'm looking foward to it. I don't have to work. I have my meds and back-ups. Plus, I plan on getting a good night's sleep.
There are only so many Thanksgivings and Christmases in a lifetime. With most of my family deceased, I could throw in the towel. But I just can't...I'm too much of a big kid. I LOVE the holidays. I love the music, the food, the colors and all the energy and excitement.
That's one thing my mother passed onto me. She was like a Christmas fairy every year and made such magic in everything she did with the way her spirit shone through and brought light to all of us. It's kept me on the up and up.
Blessings to all of you.
Giggy- beautiful... and sounds like you have a good plan... Im also foucused on getting good rest tonight- I think its very important to feeling better all the way around~~
