Miyo is SO adorable and looks SO fluffy but lets be real, I can feel her princess vibes oozing out of my screen. So tell me, is she a princess?<br /><br />Secondly, congratulations on your own home! That must be such a huge milestone, to have a place to call your own and also just as sweet of your hubby to give in about getting a kitty. No regrets right? ;)<br /><br />Thank you for being so honest in your blog, I really appreciate it when you go out of your way to express yourself even when it makes you feel vulnerable. I agree with your friend that this is not you but rather just a temporary state. Look at you, already walking on the path ahead. And just remember there are ups and downs, so when you're down let yourself be, like you said cut yourself some slack. Just don't forget to put your chin up afterwards :) <br /><br />I really wish you only the very best for this year (I know it's February already and I also mean all the years ahead of you!). Cheaper medical bills or none at all would be best *crying laughing tear enjoy here* and that you enjoy each moment of bliss coming your way.Manahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13038977364952640480noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392001.post-88295210668994985162017-02-15T11:44:12.783+08:002017-02-15T11:44:12.783+08:00I wish you all the best this 2017!I wish you all the best this 2017!Lux G.https://www.blogger.com/profile/00557863683608790087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392001.post-1411978340501523442017-02-09T12:16:37.403+08:002017-02-09T12:16:37.403+08:00Sorry, I forgot to proofread before publishing.

It's actually hard to imagine, you seem like the most happy and content person I've known (well virtually). Also, is it really because of the weight gain? I guess for someone like me who's been overweight pretty much my life, can't understand that. You are so petite, it's really hard to understand someone who is so much skinnier than me get upset about your weight. Hope I'm not offending you. And I love everything you're going to work on in 2017. I'm working on those too! All the best and keep blogging.<br /><br />Will always support you,<br />Jo<br />http://www.whiterosesandcoffee.com/Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14715695023893504597noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392001.post-2566837355974669482017-01-23T02:57:54.144+08:002017-01-23T02:57:54.144+08:00i started writing a digital diary to keep my thoug...i started writing a digital diary to keep my thoughts organized. writing is too slow sometimes after a tiring work day and blogging takes too long so i just type it up quickly. it has helped a lot, especially when i was looking for a specific date in reference to an event. maybe do that instead.<br /><br />I dont know how to properly comment on your sometims upset feelings. i have a friend who has his own upset feelings and it's difficult for me to manage. not like what you said. more..difficult. i try. my other friend once said, 'it's easy to be diagnosed with a psychological disorder but not easy to be diagnosed free from them.' <br /><br />take care. also that neighbour who disappeared, when i told you on facebook. still not back. the home is just empty with no movement for like 7 months. i think they're gone.turtlehttp://brutalturtle.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392001.post-22173065265767128272017-01-04T06:36:48.978+08:002017-01-04T06:36:48.978+08:00Happy 2017!!! 2016 was a rotten year!

So please do put less pressure on yourself (I know that is hard) and put yourself first for healing. My mom struggled with this for a time and also didn't see herself in the future. I remember asking her when I was little if she would go to my high school graduation. She said she would be dead before then...not suicidal, but depressed and not able to see herself in the future.<br />About the donating blood, being able to donate doesn't mean you're fat. It means you're at the right weight and not too thin...and probably more alluring than ever!<br />Congratulations about the house. That is wonderful news. I think a new house is like a new car. At first we're so careful and want to baby them. But after we get used to them it's easier to have a little mess. :)Ricademushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12347446705678305814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392001.post-56142705469792037152017-01-03T09:26:24.771+08:002017-01-03T09:26:24.771+08:00Thanks for sharing your thoughts with us.

I am so sorry that you had to deal with comments about your weight that made you feel unhappy because I know that is hard. People often say things without thinking of the effects their words will have. <br /><br />I hope that 2017 is a great year for you and that you will be healthy, happy, and have lots of laughs. :) <br />~JessDMShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04202502753961748992noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392001.post-70018552714779528222017-01-03T06:02:38.459+08:002017-01-03T06:02:38.459+08:00What a lovely reflection back on your 2016 Jo!

Depression can't be very hard to lift oneself out from but good on you for recognizing it and making an effort to help yourself and I hope you can continue to keep feeling better. Happy new year to you and your family! May 2017 bring you much happiness, good health and many new and fun adventures! xoRowena @ rolala loveshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10139269533873270419noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392001.post-47853978891420109142017-01-02T18:26:54.557+08:002017-01-02T18:26:54.557+08:00This was a beautiful post my dear...very real and ...This was a beautiful post my dear...very real and beautiful. Am glad you were able to find a light in the feelings of depression. It's not always easy, but you can do it. I could identify with a lot of your points.

I do see how far I have come. I too deal with depression, there is nothing wrong with reaching out and asking for help, I find talking with someone really helps. Thankfully there is less stigma in asking for help...I know all about being injured and wondering why it had to happen when I had worked so hard to get healthy, I had to accept it and now I will work on getting back to being healthy this year. I hope next year is wonderful and that you have lots of love and joy xox Launna https://www.blogger.com/profile/09447311902825477772noreply@blogger.com
