Wow I just looked at the bottom of my page and I have an ad for M & M's! Who thought that was a good idea. I read once that for every M & M you eat you have to walk the length of a football field ten times.
oh please stop those ads!

I have to talk this through or I will go nuts.
I feel like I am drowning in fabric and dall stuff. For nearly 6 months Ihave been doing nothing but sewing. I want it done. I want it finished. I want it put away and back to one project at a time instead of a list.
I did this to myself. I bought patterns and fabric and dolls because I want to do the projects. I feel paanicky when I see something really neat on ebay What if it isn't there the next time, or when I am ready, or whatever. If I starated making dresses for my granddaughters today, and didn't purchase any more patterns or fabric, they could each wear dresses until they were 10.
On my back burner since I made the turtle quilt, I have had a box full of fabric and patterns to make similar quilts for my grandchildren for Christmas. I really want to do these quilts, but stacked on top of the box are at least 6 other promised things.
A friend came to my house last week and asked to see some of the things I have made and I realized that all the finished projects had been given away. I had 3 quilts back from the quilter to let her look at, All these need are labels and then I could send them on, but they too have been sitting around, in the way.
Yesterday I was having a really good time working on a special doll that I started before Randy died. I'd been at it about 6 hours when I burst into tears crying that I just can't get 'it all' done. I so want to put the fabrics back in their boxes so I can find them again. One or 2 projects on the table I can handle, but now I can't find where one project ends and another begins.
None of this is anyone's fault except mine, so don't any of you start to feel guilty. I've been here before, but it never gets solved. I need help.
I also need my medication. I've been out of my anti-depressant medicines for almost 3 weeks and only had a few hours sleep in forever. I called the VA office, but the soonest I can seen the doctor is next Friday and then it will take 2 weeks for any medication prescribed to actually get here. I just realized that next Friday is a holiday. Oh well, I probably wouldn't be able to get there anyway. No one to drive or car to drive in. Kids are spending this Thanksgiving with the in-law families and I've heard rumors of a shopping trip to SAlt Lake City.
I think I will spend an hour putting stuff I'm not using away and take the trash out of my room. Then I'll work on my fun project from yesterday until Billy is ready to take me to get my nails, hair and pedicure done. I can also pick up some bits and pieces to finish projects tomorrow. Tomorrow night I will package up what ever I have finished so he can mail it Thursday.
Right now, I'm going to go sew those silly labels on and listen to the news. Thanks for listening. Coming of these drugs is hard. Perhaps there is something besides pills that will help ease the depression. I've heard that electric shock therapy is great for long term depression suffers.
Later, Gwyn
