Happy New Year

Here's to:

Another year without Bob.

Another year of anxiety and stress and depression.

Another year of loneliness

Another year I feel I can't blog my true feelings ---  as I get mostly negative comments -- or no comments --which is worse?

Or sometimes the"be happy" comments or the "get over it" comments --- which just make me feel like a failure...

The occasional supportive comment -- I love. Thank you.

But another year without most people understanding how I feel.

Another year just trying to get by....

Another year of writing my book...

Hope I find something this year....  not that anyone gives a shit... but it is what it is....

Happy New Year to you all!

It was a long year, wasn’t it? Have you read “The Body Keeps the Score “? It might help.

I was happy to say "Good Riddance!" to 2019 . I'm trying to be optimistic for 2020..But so far it's not great either.

I'm sorry I've not commented in a while. When I did comment I wasn't ever sure you read them. Irony at it's finest, eh?

Anyway, Here's to 2020..Hoping it'll be a better year. Better, not bitter. LOL

Regards,
Kan

Kan I read every comment --- I guess I don't reply, as what to say? maybe I should start doing that, saying "thank you" or something. But I do read every comment -- And thanks for your comment and lets do hope for a better year not bitter year!

Diane -- funny you mentioned that maybe you'll start replying to people's comments, because that was something I was going to suggest. It seems that people would be more likely to comment if they know that the person will reply in some way. This would be true for most blogs, of course, and not just yours...Sometimes on blogs I'll see someone provide support to the blogger and also mention some problem of their own, and usually there is no specific reply to that person. In any event, I hope 2020 will be a better year for you!! Keep us posted. :)

Happy New Year! At least, I hope it will be.

Diane said...

Thanks guys, I honestly never thought about replying to comments... I often leave comments on other blogs but I never check back to see if they respond.......

Happy New Years Denise, Kan, Stephany,
Lynn and everyone else!

I love your blog, I’m always looking forward for your stories. I can’t wait for your book. I’m not doing to well as well, my son is my motto, most days I feel like staying in bed, but can’t do it.

Diane said...

Dear Anon, can certainly relate to feeling like staying in bed, want to do that many days -- but dogs have to pee, and enough Kona nudges in my face I have to get up. ha!
Wish you'd leave your name. Glad your looking forward to my book. About 3/4 way though. Take care.

See? I'm replying...

Diane..you are loved and people care....and people give a shit..I do. You are not alone.
I care about you and what you feel. I wish you didn't feel that no one cares. Because it is simply not true. I want to write more but would rather speak to you in person about such a personal matter.

Diane said...

Hillary, call me sometime when you are not so busy (as usual!) Come over for some chocolate cheese! Love ya girl.

Sorry Diane, I'm playing catch up here. Yes, I can relate to all you said, but we're still alive and kicking. Email anytime.

Hey Yadira, just put your name on a comment. And I do love you, girl. I hope you are doing OK. And "no" I magically don't know whose commenting lol
