We did our usual as a family- dinner at restaurant of son's choice, then to ToysRUs to pick out a new bike. Wanted to get one that fit his longer legs, so decided to let him try it out instead of giving him one that might not be the right size. Anyhoo, a good day. We were supposed to go to MIL this weekend, but H and S6 both have colds, so didn't want to carry those to the family 3 hours away from here. Lots of rain today, so quiet day at home playing games and making cookies, etc.

I have been reading up on many of your sitches while I was MIA, I have just felt so numb in my own sitch. Honestly, though I love my H, I would probably leave if it weren't for the kids. I feel drained of all my energy and just want to feel alive again. Yes, I do believe am cycling through a bout of depression at the moment.
Well, you're obviously keeping quite active, focused and engaged despite the "bout". Good for you.
