Good Morning, World!!! I woke up at 4:30 this morning, Seattle time. I decided to do laundry which was done by 7:30 this morning and ended up doing some light household chores which were done by 8:00 this morning. (All times mentioned in this blog post are Seattle time.) I am feeling extremely accomplished by what I have done today.

Despite feeling accomplished by what I have done so far today and it is not even 9:30 in the morning Seattle time, I am dealing with a lot of depression and PTSD symptoms. I realize that some of the PTSD symptoms are due to recent anniversaries as well as upcoming anniversaries, yet they still suck shit. The depression symptoms increasing this time of year is to be expected. It is expected due to the shorter days as well as the normal, typical Seattle type of weather which includes rain and cloudy skies as well as the occasional wind storm.

Feeling accomplished with what I have done this morning as well as dealing with increased symptoms in my PTSD and depression, I have been thinking. Yes, I know thinking is a scary thought coming from me. I am thinking that if I blog on the regular basis like I have for the last 14 days, it will not only help my mental health symptoms but hopefully help other people who could be reading my blog and also hoping it could keep my regular readers more engaged with reading my blog and hopefully comment more. I know what I write about isn’t always interesting or entertaining but I hope it helps other people feel not so alone with their mental health struggles or any struggles for that matter. I just want my blog to help others have hope no matter what is going on in their life.

I do not have anything else to discuss or share or to write about in this particular blog post except to say that it is now time to cuddle with my cat, Billie who I love very much. I do want to thank you the reader for reading my blog. It is greatly appreciated from my end of things that you the reader, read my blog. If it was not for you the reader, reading my blog I would not be continuing to write my blog. Again, thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading my blog. Peace Out, World!!!
