Sorry I've been such a downer lately...  all the madness just feels like its been catching up with me and finally i've come crashing down...  I haven't felt depressed hardly at all since we moved here... I finally felt normal... but then this little hurricane happened and i've been all annoying and self-absorbed and self-loathing...  and whining...  gal, why don't you guys just tell me to shut up already....

well...  I'm hopeful that things will be better :)   they'll still be hard, but good too :)  isn't that what life is all about ?

I'm sure it is
