Feel like I could use an old friend...
 

... a cup of hot cocoa... and someone to just out and out lie if need be and tell me that everything is going to be okay. :Dunno:

Are any of you ever "fine" one day... all upbeat and ready to help the rest of the world??? then... the next day... you're not so sure you believe all that "everything's fine" talk that you are so famous for reassuring the rest.

I'm just having a little pity party... nothing in particular. All of you are my NEW friends... but sure could use an OLD friend kind of a hug tonight!:hug:

Thanks for listening!

I'm a new friend (handing a cup of cocoa) and a :hug:

My new friend I just want you to know that everything will be okay. Do you want to talk?

:hug:

Well, I don't know about "Old"..:wink:
But hugs-a-plenty for you F2U! :hug::hug::hug:
Been there (still there)..Feel great, make plans to accomplish all kinds of wonderfull things..Next day, "What was I thinking?"..
But, all in all, it's all good. Take advantage of the up days, make the most of the down.
Like Red Green says, Keep Your Stick On the Ice!

There really isn't alot to talk about. Just the whole MS thing. I just get tired of pulling up the ole boot straps on a daily basis... you know. Hate feeling depressed... been there, done that... don't want to revisit. I was there for years, before the dx. Just trying really hard not to find myself there again.

Also, I had the gallbladder surgery monday, maybe that is still just part of it all and how I feel.

As I said, nothing in particular, probably just everything in general.... I'm sure it will seem brighter in the morning. See how good I am at this little pep-talk?!?!! I have it all memorized!

Thanks for the hug... and the chocolate... I actually made myself a cup... wan't a bad idea! Thanks for caring enough to answer! :hug: That is what I needed on this cold, lonely night!

Well, now I know who to call when I need the pep talk..:)
You're probably right about the surgery, too.
I hope tomorrow is a better day!!

Awww.....Friend....hang on...
 

Friend... I hope I can be considered a friend....I'm not old and not an old friend of yours...but I certainly feel very old these days. Does that count?

I'm glad you made yourself a cup of cocoa - what a fine idea.

Yes, like you, and I imagine like many people dealing with MS (especially those of us more recently dx)...I have days where I am in fight mode - confident that I will beat this - it won't take me down....and then the next day, I'm ready to surrender. (To be honest, sometimes I go through these two places in the same hour and several times a day!).

I just wanted to say hang on...but I'm not always sure what it is we are hanging onto! I guess just hang on to knowing that the sun will rise again tomorrow and maybe it will be one of the days where you have the energy and fight in you to keep your chin up! :)

ps/did you put marshmallows in the cocoa??

Thanks Red,
 

Marshmellow creme...

Oh the fun we could have with that.

*No smiley available for what I'm thinking*

Tee Hee,
 

Thanks for the laugh! :Bow: I hope, above all, the sense of humor is the last thing to go, if there ever must be a last thing to go!

You are too funny! How can I be depressed now :cool2:?!?!?!?! :hug:

I see Moose already came to your rescue. I wuz gonna offer my Dad -- he's 94 and single.

Well, you wanted an OLD friend, right? And he's crazy about choccy milk!!! :p
