Hi All - 


The last couple of weeks Carol and I have been fortunate to have met and spend time with, on our well ventilated deck, a few of the couples that we traveled with when we were on the road.  It was wonderful to see them but left me feeling sorry for my self beause we are not doing that RV Lifestyle any more.  We are not on our way to Tucson for 2 months then onto Cottonwood, AZ for 3 more months.  Wonderful part of the country and got to watch cactus blossom for 5 months. 


Anyway - Found my self depressed for a few days and thoughts started to drift into "What is it worth.".  


Seem to be back to "Normal" today.  Guess I'll stick around for a while.  :-)


Hope ya'll are well.

Glad to hear you’re feeling better! Been there myself. Everyone gets depressed at times but I think it’s a double whammy when you have a disease that makes your “normal” still feel like less than the normal of others. It’s important to remember that our emotional state fluctuates just as this disease does. Always hoping for brighter days though. God bless!

as for the fact of getting depressed, after all you are human, and we all are entitled of certain feelings, just make sure not to allow it to drag you down find some rutine which will keep you mind busy, that, if ir when that will happen to me i will do, allways matter over mind

I understand that completely. We live in Northern Wisconsin with -20F this morning and normally would be in someplace like southern TX for Jan and Feb in our RV, but with the Covid and some health issues with my wife, we are staying here beating off cabin fever with setting up some basement trays to start garden vegetables in February.
I am a local history buff, and so like to research that. On January 3rd, I started a Facebook page to work on a project with our local history society to do the history of a tiny town that has almost disappeared. The interaction of folks contributing to it have made January go by fast. We hope to make a museum display and a book from the materials gathered. That is one way for me to get through winter!!!
If you do Facebook, you can see how it is happening
