What a difference a week makes

[doctoranda]

Last week I was so so sad and down and actually found a lot of comfort here.[ Thanks you all!] With your help I started to slowly pull myself out of the hole. I jogged a little and managed to work on my dissertation about 1-2 hrs a day. We had a three day weekend and we went out (low budget) and explored new areas around where we just moved. We went to pick out a kitten (her name is Miss Levi-- Levi is a boy's name but it means union and she is the icing on our almost 1 year-old nuptials), had a super nice and relaxing BBQ at friends', and played cards and lounged about in the park. This week our neighbors came over one night and so we got to know them better, I will have more political stuff on the calendar with my party, and we are having friends over on Friday night. I feel like a huge burden is lifted even though I know I am not there yet. The folk on this board really helped me take the first step, gave me a hand, and so I am super appreciative. Can't wait to meet some of you on Sat!
