Elle, I really hope you feel better soon, all the way around. Watch "No Time for Sergeants" if it comes on; in case you haven’t seen it, it’s a hilarious old movie (makes me giggle each time I see it). Nibble that popcorn, drink those warm drinks, snuggle big time. Hey, sounds like a plan… Look forward to having you back, Carol 11w

<SNIP EXPLANATION> So, it wasn’t that time-warp thing after all? I’m sooooo glad. And hey– your self-help regimen sounds fabulous! Playing with the dogs, sipping hot beverages, silly movies and ice cream– all except the "snuggling up to Dave" part.

Hugs to you Elle. I hope things get better. Glad to hear you have been enjoying snuggling with Dave and playing with doggies. Gwen 8m

It has come to my attention that a few folks have expressed concern about my whereabouts and well-being.  Well, here is the skinny: – I have had a cold that has made me feel like poop; – I have been struggling with some depression and emotional crap in the aftermath of my mom’s death; – I have been trying to combat all of these things by shutting out the world, snuggling up next to Dave in the evenings and watching old silly movies on TV while sipping hot beverages, playing with my dogs, and eating ice cream; – we are also redoing the kitchen floor which means that our activities are structured around "drying times" ha ha ha (as if that stuff ever dries). I tend to lose much of my sociability when I’m depressed or sick, so this is kind of a double-whammy.  I’m not meaning to be deliberately evasive, but I’m just on an emotional treadmill that has nothing to do with not smoking right now, so it’s not really appropriate to bring these troubles to the group.  The short version is that I have a long standing diagnosis of PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder) which, until recently, was fairly well under control.  Recent events have caused it to resurface.  I’ll be fine, once I get through all the stuff I have to get through and get a bit of distance between myself and it. In the meantime I just have to resign myself to being a little flaky Hugs to all of you and Dave and I appreciate the concern! Elle Before you buy.
