I woke up with a Smile!

What's on your mind today? I woke up with a smile today for the first time since November 2022. This was the saddest Christmas I have ever had. I missed the loved ones that got their wings in the last four years, my brother was killed from a tractor accident, my ex husband got a lung disease (he never smoked) and passed away within two months but the hardest one of all was last year when Chris, my oldest son, died suddenly. I cried most of December from depression , sadness, and loneliness. I have had severe depression since I was a teenager. I'm not telling you this to make you feel sorry for me but to be happy for me. But please do feel sorry for Kyle because I gave him hell during December. I didn't work at WA at all and I changed my mind every few days and used Kyle as my sounding board. Thank you my friend.

You see it's amazing how God works. We don't know what is going to happen to us or in our lives from day to day. The one thing we can be sure of is that God stays with us during the good, the bad and the ugly! He puts people in our lives, like Kyle, to help him put up with crazy people like me. Kyle doesn't even know God was using him to help this old woman out.

I just wanted to let you peeps know why I was missing in action. I'm sure lots of you had a Merry Christmas celebrating Jesus' birthday. But lots of us, like me, let depression get at us! If any of you deal with depression or have someone in your lives dealing with it, give yourselves a break. Get out of bed with a smile on your face this morning and say "Good morning God"; NOT good god it's morning!!
