Today IS A Better Day!
Well, after wallowing in my depression on my B-Day, I got to thinking yesterday. Only I can change this. It's up to me. I think I have been relying on everyone else to make me happy- maybe that is why I have been so miserable. So, I've decided that it is time for me to take control.
No more laying around in my sweats all day, I HAVE to do SOMETHING other than clean the house. Something that makes me feel good BESIDES drinking a bottle of wine per setting!
Also, I've got to start taking better care of myself! Fix my hair (it hasn't been cut since this time last year) and buy some make-up (the daughters have gotten all I had). Also, I need some new clothes that make me feel good even though I am a BBW!
I am also going to start exercising again, when I was exercising on a regular basis, I always felt UP. I have an eliptical machine just sitting in my room- and I have now started recording "Shimmy", a belly-dancing show on Fit TV. I have always wanted to learn to belly-dance!
I have also started taking Saint John's Wort for depression. We will see if it hekps. My Hubby and are are at least talking and have decided that 18 years of being together is too important to throw it away without trying again. He is actually being really sweet and trying so hard. He has even been hugging & kissing me every day before he goes to work if I am awake and as soon as he walks in the door at night.
And I HAVE STARTED KNITTING AGAIN! Just a pair of socks, a scarf for my daughter and a "wand" holder for my Son who is to become a Music Teacher. LOL
We will see if this lasts. I'm feeling better right now at least.

Hi, just wanted to say that I hope you are feeling abit better. Depression can be a terrible thing.
You are right in your attitude about the things you can change...do them, small steps at a time.
Knitting is also great therapy.
Like you I am a stay at home mum, all my kids are now at school though and I also feel I have little purpose outside the house. I have started knitting all the Christmas gifts I can so at least we won't have to buy as much this year, I see this as my contribution.
