Can you believe we at the end of holiday season? Where did it go?
This was such a different year for us as a family, and me in particular for the holidays. I was very low key, almost apathetic…better than the manic, out of control Sandy of old….I am confident I will find the middle ground next year.
I don’t think there are many of you who follow my blog that don’t know what a rough year 2013 was for me personally. I am seeing a wonderful psychologist every week, and it is amazing the breakthroughs that I am making in understanding who I am. These two thoughts represent my change of thinking, of being…. s-l-o-w-l-y but surely the realization that I can be OK and have a good life is becoming a reality.
How I felt before….injured, scarred and bleeding most times….
And how I am looking at life now…..
I am strong! I am still breathing! I told my doctor that it just isn’t enough to “survive” life anymore, I want to live it and be OK!
And so….I leave this year with a lot of thoughts and feelings not necessary to bring with me into 2014…..I like these thoughts below better!
And one last thought…..perhaps the best…..
Happy New Year my friends!!!! I am so looking forward to what 2014 brings our blogging community. :):)

Hello Dear Sandy! Thank you so much for sharing with us. It means a lot to me. My dear husband has had several manic episodes this year, and it so hard. We are thankful he bounces back. He has good meds that work pretty well to keep the blues down. I think it is harder on me. When you share, I don't feel so alone. Happy New Year! Love, Patti
Happy New Year to dear Sandy! I'm so glad you have found some one who can help her feel better about being!
Good morning dear Sandy!
Thanks for sharing your life.
What a journey this growing up can be for all of us!
This is the hardest time of year for me- when there is so little light. when I think back to "summer me", it's a different person!

Happy New year! Just wanted to say how much I enjoy your blog ;)
Do you know what happened to Elizabeth at creative breathing?
Dear Sandy, I don't know you well, but found you about a year ago. My heart has hurt for you. I am so happy to see that you are doing better and feeling positive. My daughter and my brother struggle too but both have come soooo far and both are in a good place right now. BE HOPEFUL!
Love,
Linda Lou
