Highs -Running in the 10K and running 10 miles -Starting to date again after a very long dry spell -Getting into my "skinny" clothes again -Getting active with the trail club again -Getting active in AA again -Having fun with the Jaycees -All the special times with my nieces and nephews Lows -Worrying about my parents and watching them get older and seem more vulnerable -Worrying about my sister who has been under a lot of stress -Continuing to have trouble finding the right meds for me for my depression/bipolar issues (but I think a switch in mid-April finally has it right!!) Nice idea, Eris!

Great Idea! Highs ~ Fighting more health problems but STILL here and STILL kicking! Those that are trying to force me into a nursing home/nursing home program HAVE NOT succeeded so far! Even though she is getting older and seems like a totally different kitty, my precious Baby is still here with me after 14 years! I have met some totally wonderful people both here on the board and at home! I have met a new sister who says we are kindred spirits! Lots more laughing going on in my life since joining the clubhouse! Lows ~ Well I always have lots of those going on because of all of my health issues. I think the worst so far this year is the liver thing. I absolutely hate it when I can't type due to pain. It is such a frustrating thing since I have pretty much fallen in love with this place and some of the people here. It has become increasingly challenging to deal with an older kitty friend. But we are plugging away at it and are finding new ways of doing things. My income being cut almost in half which totally sucks bigtime! My ex-boyfriend is still not letting go after a breakup over a year ago.

2006 Highs Son returned to the area--and has landed a job. We were able to give our ds my 97 Honda--in excellent condition with new tires. My dd took me on as a project! She educated me about a healthier way of eating (organic) and cooked strange but tasty things for me quite often while she was here. My dd moved back to Brooklyn (a shared apartment)--with friends and people her age once again. (And that means I can drink my Diet Lime Cokes again now and then--without hearing a lecture!) Good relationship going strong among all four of us in our immediate family. My sister and I have maintained a good relationship with each other (after not speaking to one another for years) since my mother's death on Christmas Day. Ed got a new car; I got his old (2002) car. (No complaints!) We're house-hunting for a ranch house in North Wilmington. A headhunter is after Ed for a NC position. (He loves the compliment.) 2006 Lows Dh is smoking again. Son suffered a terrible, terrible heartbreak. A headhunter is after Ed for a NC position. (No, not again!) We drove by the house I loved (had some reservations about the kitchen) that we toured last Sunday--and there's a SOLD sign up!! Waaahhhh. My back is still a pistol.

Hercleperckle made me think of a high for 2006 and that is I QUIT SMOKING. I forgot it feels like I have never smoked.
