| A bit better
Today I would have spent another day in bed or inside the apartment if a friend hadn't called me up with a little job to do. Just some sign painting, no big deal. The work was unexciting but I scratched out a quick little painting of a girl emerging from a leafy background wearing blossoms around her neck and shoulders, while I was waiting for the sign to dry. It felt good. I had a decent day- the first on in awhile due to several vexing factors. And soon this week I will be able to see my aunt, the only person in my family who has ever cared for me and not abused me in some way. (Siblings excluded, becasue ummm.. it's what we do) She means so much to me.

| Do u have a catch-22? |
OHH, you poor dear im sorry for your misfortune. I can sympathise with boring painting a few weeks ago I had nothing better to do so I painted 2or3 lattice fence peices.For my x-boyfriend that I was still sleaping with. and i wonder why? Well it was extremely tedious but you know what! I loved every Minute of it. It was just something about getting into all thoughts little groves and trying to make sure that the other side didn't get any drips. oh well it did. You know what It's not what I was doing, it was that I had some thing to do! Some how it made things o.k. Even if he thought he was his using me which he was, he even told me he was and i still painted. why? because I wanted to for me not him!!!!!! So i'm glad yiou got some pleasure! Have fun with your aunt!!

I too have been following you deer. Sometimes a few mediocre mundane days strung along for a while can be just what the doctor ordered. They may not have to be spectacular days, but just enough to keep your mind busy and new scenery can really help. I'm so happy you had a better day today and wish you all the best! Tom =] |

It's going to be very good for you to see someone who cares so much about you. I get an overload of loving-kindness and become relatively indifferent to it, so even with so many people who care about me, I still feel like a lump a lot of the time.
