@tippitiwichet Lordie... It's been a hell of a year. My health took a serious nosedive last November but I'm finally starting to feel better.

But on brighter notes: The kiddo graduated from high school and is attending the University of Colo. She's in the honors program. She has a boyfriend 😊 She's doing really well.

The wife is doing well too. She's gotten into sewing in a big way and is designing and making herself clothing.

The Bingster 🐶 is still flooph.

You?

@P_D_Austin I also, had a really rough patch. Ongoing stress with Joe's struggles led to me to snap in a bad way. I had a psych ward visit, and now my eldest has moved in with a friend in Cali, and my youngest is staying with her paternal grandma. I'm just now getting to where I'm ready to job hunt. Will be moving out soon. But I'm healing well, in fact I tried to find something that made me angry just a bit ago for the day's exercises, and I couldn't find anything.

@tippitiwichet I'm not sure what to say. So glad that healing happens. I have thought of you often... But my energy has been terrible for a while.

I've checked your Twitter account more than once. And I have thought of you often. We've both trekked a challenging road. We're kinda family in that sense.

FWIW: I admire the shit out of you.

@P_D_Austin Aww, shucks. I've missed you too, but you can always find me here. I like the smaller community, it has very little drama. And don't worry about me, I'll be looking for work that uses my degree, finally. Are you feeling solidly on the mend healthwise?

@tippitiwichet Pretty much so. I spent about four months with very little physical activity. It's been hard to bounce back strength and endurance-wise. Add severe arthritis on top of that and... You get the idea... You deal with fibro so chronic pain is no stranger to you.

@P_D_Austin Yeah, I've done the periods of inactivity too. Pushing yourself to get out of it suuuuuucks. Wish I had advice to give, but I'm sure you've tried everything, and hell, I haven't found anything perfect.

@P_D_Austin Obviously, if I'm not angry at anything, I'm taking a break from staying on top of the news. Just for a bit, until I pull my shit together.
