Was it a good year for you?
Yeah, me neither.
No job, acute emotional depression, dubious prospects for the new year.
My father died, my grandmother died, and other things were difficult also.
The first post in this blog was titled, "It's Easy to Get Discouraged". It still is.
I am taking antidepressants, and they help some, but not enough, really. I wish I could go back into therapy, but we really can't afford it, and my former therapist has moved away. I am looking for a support group for the long-term unemployed, but there doesn't seem to be one. Maybe I should start one.
On the other hand, we did get the water out of the oil tank so the heater runs again. And we got the mud out of the kitchen sink drain so water runs through it again. I finished my first novel, and possibly it will bring in some money. That'd be good.
And the new year...will be a new year. Anything could happen.

Mine actually didn't suck. I'm still comparing years to 2005, the Year from Hell, and basically a year has to be pretty bad not to look good compared to that. Perhaps this will be that year for you - the year that, once you recover from it, is the Benchmark for Bad that makes you appreciate how good it is just to not have people dying and hospitalized in your immediate vicinity.
Keep going. The only way out is through. And if you don't start the support group, who will?
