30. I'm so sorry for your losses. Grief can take a lot out of a person.

Oct 2020

2020 really does suck. I keep thinking it can't get any worse. But I keep being proven wrong.

It's made worse because I've lost all of the things I used to do that helped me deal with stress and sadness. I have to find a way to get back to yoga, aerobic workouts, walks, meditation, playing my bass, gardening (lots to do, even in the fall & winter), etc.

I hope you can find coping strategies that work for you.
