Woke up at midnight.
This time of year is difficult. People attending parties, exchanging gifts, being with family. I don't have any of that and I miss it.
I'm the same, Angie. And, it does further affect your sleep. I hope you can feel some connection to us, here, and our caring for you, and the value we place upon you. There's no rhyme or reason, to this unfairness, and it rankles. You have so much to offer. I hope you can keep some faith, and enjoy what you can, from the season. At least the negative aspects of the usually positive things you've listed here, you'll be out of. That is the way I look at it, when I can. Your contribution is felt, I assure you; and will have been, previously. There may be more to come, and happiness. Sending my best wishes. *hug

it's almost 5 am and i didn't sleep at all last night. i have to go out this morning probably early. my wife kind of growled when i told her she has to get up around 7 so we can leave at 8 this morning. we have to get last minute things done early because my son should be coming over this afternoon. because we are putting the 2 big gifts together today so we don't have to do it christmas eve. we don't usually tell each other what we are getting but since a 75 inch tv may stick out lol and her power lift/recliner needs assembly my son is doing it today. but either way we can't use them until christmas eve.

Thinking a lot about things I've done in the past that are reasons of why my daughter hates or doesn't want to speak to me. Wondering to myself if I regret anything and I would do things differently instead of of being impulsive or living counter culture. Wondering even if I should have stayed married, but I can't imagine that, it seems so long ago. I just feel bad for my children, coming from a broken home looking back on it now.

I feel fairly good. I am keeping the sharp broken bits away from me, holding on the wholeness for all I'm worth.

I got out very early to go watch the sunrise for winter solstice. haha it was sprinkling and completely clowded over. Still felt good to be around the trees and give myself encouragement for however it is I am still being.

Pissed off. I bought a four pack of beers so I'd have them in over the holidays in case I felt like one. So it turns out they don't use those plastic things to hold cans together any more, they have this glue. I discovered this when trying to get the cans apart and they just wouldn't budge. To the point applying more force resulted in one of the cans ripping open resulting in beer everywhere and nearly taking my finger off. Blood everywhere as well. Took photos and video and debating whether I can be bothered with the emotional effort of making a complaint. Lucky it was only a small laceration, it could have gone way deeper and been quite serious 😟 First time in about 5 years I've bought cans of beer and likely the last!

Awkward. I'm having to have a rough conversation with my friend. She has this other friend, they used to date but I think they're just friends now, but he has become verbally abusive with her multiple times, especially when he drinks. When that happens, she gets upset and tells me she's done with him, but then he apologizes and she seems to immediately accept it and go right back to hanging out with him, even though he doesn't seem to have shown much of a dedication to changing or even acknowledging the underlying patterns. It hurts me to see this because I care about her. She asked if she can bring him when we hang out tomorrow, and I said I'm not necessarily ready to trust him because he hasn't shown that much evidence that he wants to actually change his behavior. But at the same time it's hard, because she does like him, and I don't want to upset anybody.
