What were you doing 10 years ago?
I was in Manchester, England trying to repair a very broken relationship. It was all my fault. I was stupid and very heartbroken. However, we love, live and learn.....I can't believe it was 10 years ago. Crikey. On February 13/14, I may have actually been in Liverpool drinking on Matthew Street. *sigh*

What were you doing 1 year ago?
I was in the middle of the most intense depression I have ever known. Last winter was just unbearable. I was stuck in a job I hated, felt my life had no meaning and that I had no future. I thought all of my college education was a waste. I was lonely and lacking support beyond my husband. At least I sought therapy and got my life back on track. I didn't like laying on the floor of the shower crying every night.....my husband wasn't too keen on it either. Bless him.....what a trooper.
