No the great depression is not back, although i will admit i have been down more than up these last few weeks...but its the season and my life right now, not a great chemical imbalance, so i can crawl out of it in a day or two...see you then
Too depressed today to read poetry
But too determined to just stay in bed
I got up
And opened the authors den
I went down the row of poetry
And read all of your names
I said yes
They are still there
They are writing and that means
The world is still turning
And my life
Is still there when I return to it
No I admit I didn’t read much
One or two
That popped out at me as I scrolled
But seeing your names
Was like seeing it all reaffirmed
I know that when I come back
Tomorrow or the next day
You will all be here
And for that I am grateful
Ah, Sue, thank you so much for this. I love that image of opening up the site and just going through the names.... yep, we're still there. I think I'll borrow your idea next time I'm sucked under by the great dark wave. Take what time you need. Dawn

Hey Sue I know the feeling and I have been writing in another book. Woke up yesterday with bad attitude, encountered a real class A jerk and made it worse. So I stay away when it gets like that but hey this morning I said okay go see if someone else feels the same. Yep I know the feeling and this helped me a lot truly it did.
We are a special kind of family and we are always open to each others problems, ailments, joys and sadness. Yes Sue please hurry back and know people care about you.
Read something that will make you laugh, or throw up, either way you will feel less heavy...so to speak...I just double up on my Zoloft as well...Find a Piece/peace, Ed & Rufuz
Awwwwwwwww Sis hold on tight.....I know the feeling well....but by reading a few..like Ed's stinkies make me smile and then I kick into gear and read more...and feel so much more fulfilled by the end of the day!!
Come On I know you can do it I can!!
Take the time you need, Sue and come back refreshed with a new zest for life...we will all still be here for we are all addicted writers who prowl the den like a starving animal searching for sustenance.
Take care,
Sherry
Her grandma always said she had “the blessing”, and to always use it for good, but sometimes there is shame in fame if a person can’t handle it. Don’t let the Boo Hag ride ya
Needs to be conquered
Hank
Jack
And my life
Is still there when I return to it
Yes it is, and we know that you will soon return to it, too, Sue.

Lisa
Come On I know you can do it I can!!
Love Tinka
Been there, done that.
Take care,
