Going off the rail a bit today. Grief. Anxiety. I need some words of encouragement friends.

Divorced 7/11/14. New Beginning on the Gulf of Mexico. It's real nice.

I'm having friends over after work for fish tacos and backyard beers. I'm getting a little better. Thank you all for what you do.

Really try to stay in the moment with your friends, sunsets.

I'm sorry, Sunsets. It sucks.

One thing I did learn during those periods that stands out is, if you can find a way to not physically react to those emotions, like contacting WW during the emotional swings, it's a good thing.

FWIW, this was something I struggled with and it bit me.

We've all been there friend. That damned rollercoaster.

The dips get fewer and farther apart, aren't anywhere near as intense and don't last anywhere near as long.

On those days I tried to remind myself that what I was feeling was normal and that I just had to get through this next hour, this next day. I made it to the other side, we all made it. You will too.

I may have reached a point where I'd piss on him if he was on fire.... eventually!!

My friends,

I had an absolutely delightful evening with friends. The fish tacos were great, the company even better. So at peace right now. Thank you all for your support. I want to make all of you fish tacos and hug each and everyone of you. Blessings, strength and hope to,you all.
