Today is a new day that is sooo full of hope for something good coming our way. What is something that you can do today that will give you a little happiness. I am going to go pick peas and get the ready for the freezer. I enjoy having veggies that I know where they came from. Anyone else going to do something that will make you happy and give you some joy today?

Beautiful.Thank you!

Kids and I get to spend some time with friends this afternoon.

Also I got some actual sleep last night I think, so that should help my energy levels today.

Wishing everyone a happy one.

Thank you for making us think! I joined my Bible study group this morning.

I am so glad kimjones that you had a chance to go to your Bible study group. Sometimes just spending time with a group can make us feel better. I hope that you have a wonderful day.

Get ready for the maximum nerd...

Alright if you truly think your prepared then what I did today was invite a bunch of freshman to the "tabletop gaming club" (bunch of strategy board games and magic: the gathering) I'm president(ish) of the club and we had like thirty people come (which isn't ordinary) but it was loads of fun getting to be with a bunch of like minded people and bringing more peoplle into it

Jimmy4223 that a great day. I am glad that you have your gaming club that you enjoy and is something that brings you so much joy.

My day took kind of a turn. It seems I can't really enjoy time with my friends anymore. The past several times I've gone out with them it has been rough. I thought today would be fun but it was just hard. You know that thing where you're just sure everyone can't stand you? My meltdown/panic attack was enough to finally get me to make the call to try to get an appointment. Of course I was sent to voicemail. Be proud of me for leaving a message! And send me strength to answer the return call.

I am so glad that you where able to call to make an appointment. I really hope and will be praying that you get the help that you need. Taking that step is hard and I am so glad that you took it.
