Broke the news to S.O. that I’ve been off my anti-depressants for 6 days today.

He was actually more excited than I have heard him in a long time. He told me how proud he was of me and how great it was. He also said something about celebrating and making me a nice dinner. It just felt really amazing to get that kind of support.

Julien went to Scarlet’s for breakfast this morning so the girls (Deirdre and Rowan) and I rocked out to 80′s music… actually, we still are as I am writing this. Currently listening to Lisa Stansfield’s “Been Around The World” – *sigh* takes me back to 8th grade when I could still wear a bikini…

Today is one of those days when it feels like big changes are coming and they are mostly for the better. We got two more orders in and that means we can pay for our e&o insurance and still have a bit left over to keep the business account floating and able to pay business expenses for a while. If things keep going like this – even just 4 orders a month we can keep breathing and buying bottled beer.

What I want to believe more than anything is that the past several weeks have been the final “darkness before the dawn” – do you hear that little hopeful Pollyanna trying to poke her head out from under the bed?
