Saya, I don't know what to say about your situation, hun. Extend your hand and see what happens. Then you won't live with that heart-wrenching regret of doing nothing. *hugz* I still harbor a lot of resentment toward my grandfather because his neglect was a huge factor in my Grandmother's decline before she died.

So, today I biked a few blocks and back(job hunting) and dammit am I out of shape!! I haven't been exercising since all the divorce crap started. I have free time until I find a job. Might as well get my lazy ass in gear. I've been losing weight because I have no appetite since my ex got the kids(all because of the length of time they've been in the autism program in Alvin). It sucks because it's not something I can fix. I'm not a bad mother and I don't have a drug problem that quitting would help raise my chances of having my kids. It's completely out of my power and makes me feel defeated. Fuck.

Peaches, give me some real world perspective on how much worse it is to live in a warzone. Please?
Oh hun... super big hugs. Exercise will be good for you... get all those good endorphins flowing through your system. Keep you busy, and your mind off things (although you'll still be thinking about it).

Try and stay positive babe. What worked for me was to have a goal, something to work towards. Like hiking up a mountain or doing a marathon.

I found something the other day that i thought was totally awesome and that I should put on my bucket list..

A marathon in Antartica. Although it would be sweet to become one of the 7 continents marathon runners club - but first I need to get into shape.

My heros in time of hardship are Mawson - home of the blizzard and the book south - which is a book full of complete chance - both about Antartic explorers.

And if you can, let the resentment go, because you'll only hurt yourself.
