Thursday's truths.

Today's post will be similar to the "Tuesday's 10" that I've been reading on other blogs.  I don't want to put a constraint on what I share/don't share.  I think that my "truths" will give a glimpse of what my days consist of, what I'm thinking that day, some insight into my personality that doesn't come out often.  Enjoy the "truths."

1. I don't normally like coffee.  The smell of it makes me gag.  Literally.  It's horrible.  The smell of coffee beans roasting is even worse.  I'm not sure how I survived at Caribou Coffee Company for as long as I did.  (I loved that job, btw). That being said, we recently invested in a Keurig.  It's the best thing, EVAR. I love that I can quickly brew tea, make a cup of hot chocolate and even brew hot tea over ICE.  It has cut down the time I spend brewing tea.  My drink of choice has been half Caribou blend, half dark hot chocolate.  It still smells disgusting, but it tastes so good!

2. I've been slacking in the laundry department for a couple of weeks.  I don't know if it's because I've been sick that long or I'm just being lazy.  I do what needs to be done and leave the rest for the next laundry day.  It annoys me, but, I'm in a funk and can't snap out of it.

3. I pray for Lola to take long naps.  It maximizes my lazy time.  This is horrible.  Why do I torture myself this way? I should be spending as much time as possible playing with her.  I am hoping that this "depressive" funk passes soon.  I know that my family is hoping the same thing.  It's bound to get better, right?

4. I love spending time with my lovebugs; all of us together.  It's the highlight of my week.  It's the biggest bit of sunshine in my life.

So, today's "Thursday's truths" confronts my depression.  That's a self-diagnosis.  I haven't been formally diagnosed, but I think that this funk stems from grief.  And, until I can manage that grief, the depression will keep growing.  I pray that my family has the patience to walk through this with me.
