    Today is the first day of the rest of my no-depression! I just got kicked off Facebook for posting too frequently. I just called and left a message with the mediation lawyer to say I DO want to retain her! I have a 9 a.m. appointment with my therapist, I talked to my wayward daughter’s therapist yesterday, and this afternoon I’m finally going to the ebay store to sell enough potentially valuable family heirlooms to pay the lawyer! I filed for unemployment again yesterday, the weekly check goes in the mail today, the mortgage check doesn’t have to arrive by mail until Aug. 16. The weather forecast today is lousy but it’s going to be sunny tomorrow for the Changes in Latitude tribute band concert at Evergreen Walk so I’ll see my new crazy old lady friends on the crazy old lady lawn chair slope. Things are looking up! The Arimidex hurts but not that bad. Heartache, that hurts. I need a hot shower. I’m locking the bedroom door, even though I’ve only got one cat in here. Poor old cougar Twinkie was up half the night talking to her boyfriends through the porch screens and watching tiny animals in the light of the full moon. Crows, blue jays, cardinals, chickadees making a racket? Why is the catbird silent?
