Hi Phylis,

I not only have a good man, I have a good son.

When I am sick or well, he does housework. He cooks everynight. In fact, one night I wanted to cook and he said, “NO.”

Sounds like you’ve got yourself a good man. Anyone who can make you smile and laugh is worth their weight in gold!!!

Hi Phylis,

That was horrible, begging your father for what was yours.

I kept having to beg to have my family accept me after my father died. I was immediately disowned after he died. He was the only one keeping me in the family.

Hubby started joking about how our printer’s do not work. I started laughing, plus I put on my sunglasses. I feel better now. I will just ask hubby to come up with some jokes when I am down.

Gee Ruth,

I wish you could have 2 good days in a row! Although Monday isn’t my favorite day either.

But Sundays are worse because every Sunday I used to freak out between 2:00 and 4:30 because that was when I had to beg my father for child support.

Instead of just mailing it, he would have me sit there and beg for it. Not too nice.

So Sundays are prime time for my depression. Although now that I’ve figured out why (just recently, it came to me in a flash) I can do something constructive about it and turn lemons into lemonade!

Hi Phylis, here I am again. I feel comfortable being here. Sunday, I felt great. I did housework, went to my meeting and was awake all day. It was great.

Monday, I woke up to a migraine. I took my med for it. It did not go away. I slept all day and all night. My husband woke me up for lunch, dinner and meds. He is great!! He understands.

I feel better today. I am in a depression again. Any ideas. Could it because of Monday?

By the way, Tiger Woods is coming back to golf this year.

I see, the link was about Tiger Woods. I believe that was deleted or renamed. I was corrected on that one, because they said, “He did not have epilepsy. It may have been put in the lounge. That room is for anything not related to epilepsy Ruth

I love golf. I hope Tiger Woods comes back to play golf. I was kindly asked to stop keeping the thread going.

I was not in a depression then, but I am now. I got caught up in a topic at The Creative Writing Page. I edited some of my posts there today. I got caught up in something that was opposite to my beliefs. I am in a depression again. I think that has caused it. It is called Trading in the Diamonds. I asked Rae1889 what we were into She told me it was a “mystical detivive” story. If I had known that I would never had signed on as a writer. I feel bad about it. Rae told me by PM that I was ruining the story by trying to make it normal. I am happy about that, being accused of being normal.

I am feeling better now.

The thread is in CWE. A member of CWE put in a report and said it was “inapproiate.” I did not break any rules. Here is the address:

I am not making any more posts on my thread. Tiger Woods is my favorite athlete. I love golf.
