This was by no means a big thing, but I can’t explain how much it made my day.
It was about a year ago. I had a final for my hardest class (also the teacher was a huge douche, so that didn’t help). The final was a group presentation. It was unbelievably frustrating and took 3 hours.

Giving is the one thing that makes me feel good.

My hubby and I were shopping yesterday, and I was getting disheartened at how all the stores are selling the same muted coloured, flowing styles – none of which suit what I wanted.

This afternoon at Neutral Bay, Sydney, I lost my balance and fell over as I was walking down the street. My husband was ahead of me and so it looked as though I was alone.

I ended up in the MCU at my local hospital after becoming badly depressed from a breakup and financial problems. First really serious relationship. She had a child that I became close to and everything. I didn’t know how to handle it. I wasn’t suicidal but I was basically allowing my life to implode on itself. Anyway I was put in the MCU and couldn’t leave.

A kid that lives down the street from me stole my new car 2 months after I got it. He threw everything in the car away, including my granddaughter’s car seat and my daughter’s CD case that held 100 CD’s. He took the change, necklaces hanging from the mirror etc… At the time, he was on drugs. A very deep dark place to live.
