Dreading tomorrow.
We had to make the hard decision earlier this week to take our little Girlie-Girl to the Vet for the last time, and it’s tomorrow evening. 🙁
She almost made it to 16, a good long life relatively speaking. Her happy temperament and constantly wagging tail (which hasn’t for several several months) reminds me of the PYO Kitsune. I have one I’m going to paint – it’s more like her than the Flying Wolf.
So so hard to say goodbye.

Oh my goodness, I am so, so sorry. I give you lots of hugs, and I hope you’re alright. I know that’s always hard, but she’ll be alright on the Rainbow Bridge. 🙂

I’m so sorry. It’s hard to let them go, but you’re doing the right thing. I’m glad she had a nice long life with you.

http://www.sarahjestin.com/feedbacklists.htmI’m just gonna whine about the weather. April has absolutely sucked. Snow or freezing rain almost every day…COLD…and man…I’m getting pretty annoyed already. Thinking ol’ Ma Nature needs a Midol or something. Sheesh. 🙁
Awww. I love snow and cold temps. It was 70 here during most of February when it should have stayed below 30.
So feel free to send the snow and cold my way! I’m in western Colorado!I’m just gonna whine about the weather. April has absolutely sucked. Snow or freezing rain almost every day…COLD…and man…I’m getting pretty annoyed already. Thinking ol’ Ma Nature needs a Midol or something. Sheesh. 🙁

You can have it! It’s snowing here in Southern Maryland today and freeze warnings tonight. 🙁 Forsythia blossoms probably can handle the snow, but my azaleas are not happy!
Umm… it’s been mostly in the 80s, even a couple 90s here for better than a month. A few 70s (today was one), but mostly and in the forecast just 80s. I’m loving it! But I’ve noticed many here prefer the cooler temps and snow vs. rain. It is still dry season, can’t wait for the rains to start!
Snow? What is this snow people are speaking of? *lives in Alaska, where there wasn’t much of this mysterious substance this year*
I would SO happily send this chilly, snowy weather to anyone who wants it. If only it were possible… *sigh*
My biggest complaint is that when the weather is at the tipping point between melting/freezing it creates havoc on the highways with icy conditions, and of course, not everyone slows down accordingly. Aside from that, I’m tired of driving in “grandma mode”. I drive a sports car and prefer faster speeds. 🙂
Here in Manitoba (or as I’ve called it before, Manitscolda) we generally have a fairly short summer. So for the most part, we’re all extremely eager to get it started. All things considered, it’s been a good winter (if there is such a thing as a “good” winter) with about half the snow amount we normally get, and only a couple of those awful -30 C days. I think I make a pretty crappy Canadian, with the amount of dislike I have for winter, snow, and cold. 😀I would SO happily send this chilly, snowy weather to anyone who wants it.

Only 3 sizable snow storms this winter (I’m in Montreal) and I was perfectly happy with that!
The skiers have had their turn, now it’s ours!!! :p
And I could do with a bit of BC weather just about now!
Where is all the snow? I am in Calgary, Alberta and the last couple days here were really sunny and warm, although we did get a bit of rain last night but it hit 25 degrees C I believe or about 77 F. We have had a really nice spring so far here in the last month which is a bit unusual as we sometimes get snow in April or May too.

I’m sorry, I know there’s a lot of people that have it worse than me, but I just have to rant here.
2016 has been such a suckish year so far, and I was so hopeful it was going to be better. Firstly, my job. I already whined about losing it here, but upon being hired by Xerox in MARCH, they delayed the time I would actually start until MAY. Its just super annoying, as I’ve been without a job since February. Its only my mother’s income, my brother’s, and my own. I just feel so bad, letting my family down like this.
My depression has been wavering so badly its giving me backlash. Its been 3 years last October I’ve was diagnosed, and it frustrates me so much that its not gone. But what frustrates me more is I know its my fault, going off my medication more times than I care to count, wanting to be strong enough to get rid of it myself. I’ve lost 3 years of my life to this, 3 years I haven’t improved in my art or writing, which really upsets me. I’m going to be 21 in June, and I have no friends and feel like all the talent I could have claimed to have is slipping away.
And, in October 2015, my brother moved in his girlfriend. To this day, she STILL doesn’t have a job, and hasn’t been looking until this month. She’s annoying, snarky, and brought home a 4 week old kitten WITHOUT any consent when I have an 11 year old cat that is petrified of other cats. And she constantly tries to get me to babysit this kitten when she’s bored of him, guilt-tripping me by reminding me it was HER that saved the kitten (he was abused) NOT me (its my dream to save endangered animals). Now he’s been having bloody stool and I feel so helpless. Not only that, she and my brother keep taking our ONLY car everywhere they want, so I’m stuck in my room nearly 24/7. I’m sleeping 13-14 hours EVERY night and still feel constantly tired. And, due to my losing my job, my mum and I cannot move out of the house that’s falling apart into a nice apartment. (And its been a year and she still can barely eat. She’s been surviving on instant breakfasts, and I can’t help her. I cannot lose her, yet I’m so afraid I will.)
I’m trying so hard to keep the hope, to try and keep my head held high, but its so difficult. Even when good things happen, like my finally getting Photoshop, its always brought down when I realize people my age are beautifully awesome at PS and I can barely draw a line (don’t have a tablet). I just feel very lonely and lost. I’m going to keep trying. Its all I can do. Really sorry for this, you don’t have to read it. I just needed to get it out.
Finding happiness again.
Sorry to hear that Celestial Rainstorm. I know what it’s like when times are tough. I have also suffered from depression and anxiety for years but the last couple years were the worst. I had to seek help from a doctor, psychiatrist and psychologist with no results. I decided not to go on medication but look into cognitive behavioural therapy. I didn’t end up getting individual therapy like I wanted but I ended up joining a Christian group therapy program called Freedom Session I have been attending once a week since Sept. and I have a small group with other young adult girls I get to talk with every week and we go through the program with videos and workbooks and share with each other and it has helped me tremendously. I also attend a young adult group another night where I have made good friends. I also didn’t really have any friends after I broke up with my boyfriend a couple years ago after he cheated on me. That is what really triggered my depression. But if you have any groups like that where you live that you can join and meet other people it can be really helpful to meet others and share with others and make new friends.
I have also been reading a book called Feeling Good which talks about using cognitive behavioural therapy to help depression and you can get the benefits even from just reading the book and learning how to change negative thought patterns. I suffered for so long but in the last few months my depression has gone from severe to mild and I feel almost normal again and feel some emotions again and it’s been amazing to overcome what was holding me back. I also try to exercise, go for walks and hikes and go salsa dancing every week which helps my mood and sleep patterns and I have been eating a lot of healthy foods, green smoothies, salads, vegan chilies, stir fries, pastas, curries and good homemade foods that have made me feel healthier and boosted my energy. I just search recipes online and try and cook new things all the time. So if you look into those things too that could really help with your energy and sleep and feeling better. I have actually not been able to work myself for the last couple years and am finally now starting to look for work. I share a place with my mom and we barely get by paying the bills so I try and buy and sell things to help out. So I know how tough it can be but I hope things get better and if you want to chat more, message me. I have a background in nutrition and herbalist courses and have studied health and nutrition for years.

So sorry to hear of all your troubles Celestial Rainstorm. It seems life is rarely easy but there is always a some good in it somewhere. Sometimes it just takes a LOT of looking to see it.
There’s not much I can add to what information Kim has already provided. But I can say if you need the meds then take them. It is nothing against you to need help to get through things at times.
Good luck and I really hope things get better for you soon.Looking for:
