A Birthday Post


Today is my birthday. It has been good. Dave played golf, but we are going out to dinner after he is finished. I went to yoga, and then spent the afternoon at my friends pool. I'm trying to hold on to the summer. I love the warmth and the sun so much. I'll be honest, I'm 45...holy shit...45!!! When do you start feeling your age. Never I hope.

You will never feel your age because you my dear woman are ageless! You are breathtakingly beautiful inside and out and I am so thankful for the example that you set for me and so many others! I love you! May this be your best year yet! Let your freedom continue!

Happy Birthday!

I am 46. I feel my age all the time, I think because I am chubby :) But I always think I am in my 30's.

Happy Birthday Beautiful!

Can I just say how surprised I was when you said you were 45? Genuinely! I don't think I'd ever imagined an exact age but I think I thought you were somewhere in your 30s.. you look great!

Happy Birthday! Like the pic of you smiling! 45 is a good age, it's not getting older, it's getting wiser. ;-)

A belated Happy Birthday. And you really look splendid. 45 seems to be a wonderful age; I wasn't very eager to reach my forties (it'll be next year), but after having seen your photo, I realize there's hope for me, too ;-))

Certain The moon follows you at night when you are a child Oh yes, it does of that I'm certain And the stuffed animals with their neon colored synthetic fur they talk to each other when you close the bedroom door Oh yes, they do of that I'm certain And you can hear the angels whisper and the jingle of sleigh bells on Christmas Eve And dandelion seeds are tiny ballet dancers twirling in the wind The fairies hide beneath the willows And if you lie in confession with your fingers crossed you won't go to hell And with the moon behind you are always safe when you are a child Oh yes, you are of that I'm certain Angela Minard2009©

Just Snap Out Of It

The weather here is still dreary, drizzly, and cold. I sit here as I type, wishing for fingerless gloves. Yes, I would wear them:) I'm still struggling with the depression, but reaching out for help. My psychiatrist raised my medication dose, so hopefully that will help. Eating and more nutrition would also help my mood, and yesterday I did better than usual, but today it was back to restricting. The full feeling is hard for me to sit with, even though I know that it will pass if I give it time. I just didn't want to go through that today. My nutritionist weighed me on Wednesday, and I've lost weight, although she wouldn't tell me how much. That is fine. I already knew I had lost, and though the eating disorder is thrilled by this, there is another part of me that is afraid. I'm afraid that I won't find my way out of this, ever. I'm afraid that I will always be ruled by weights and numbers, food and calories, the mirror and my distorted mind. I'm really ...

I’m sadly detached, as if I’m watching myself through a window. Everything is dreamlike and surreal, with the world spinning in slow motion, and yet I can’t seem to reach myself. I was hoping that some of the depression would lift. I don’t feel as hopeless, but I’m still feeling sad and despondent. I can’t pinpoint a reason as to why I’m feeling this way which is so frustrating, because I would fix it if I could. I’m glad to be at work, I’m slowly increasing my food intake, I’m going to all of my therapies, taking my medications, and going to the addiction recovery meetings. I’m doing what I can to take care of myself, but still this sadness hangs over me. I’m so tired of feeling this way. I’m hoping that the warmth and sunshine of spring will pull me out of this darkness. I always seem to lose hope in the midst of winter, so maybe the grey, dreary days wear me down, making me more susceptible to depression. I just don’t want to go through another winter like this. I need to find a way...
