The last few days my head has NOT been right. The dismal cloud that is depression is getting bigger and that makes normal life feel tough. So yesterday I went out running, intending to go 13 miles, because I wanted to get a good run in on the first day of the year, because 13 is my favorite number, and just because I can. Mood-wise I did not want to run at all, but as someone who keeps her commitments most of the time, I headed out.
During the two hours that I was gone, my husband and kids took down and put away all of the Christmas decorations. Every single bit of it! What an amazing gift, don't you think?
I'm going to take a few days off from writing to get my head straight. Catch up with y'all really soon!

Absolutely a perfect gift! Keep your chin up and way to get it done even when you didn't feel like it!
That IS a great gift!
Take time to recoup. Get to feeling better! Thinking of you.
Running keeps me sane - I never regret the run, once I get going.

Aww, that is so nice of the family! Good for you getting your run in and enjoying yourself. Depend on your running and lean on your wonderful family and I know you'll get through this. :)
Nice of the family to take care of things while you go out to take care of things for yourself! Nothing like a good run to clear the mind-I prefer to snowshoe to clear mine, it's always so quiet and peaceful in the cold and snow-I wish I could send you some! NO REALLY, I wish I could send of this white crap anywhere but here!! LOL! Take care and look forward to your return!
