I’ve been depressed.  I find it extremely hard to write when I’m depressed because I don’t want to bum you all out.  It’s getting colder, darker and lonelier, as it always does this time of year.  My back is still hurting me, although, miraculously, it’s not as bad today as it has been in the past.  Maybe my threshold of pain is getting higher?  I’ve been going to the chiropractor just about every other day, except for the weekends.  He says he just needs one of my muscle’s to loosen up and I will be all set, hopefully that happens soon because I don’t know how much longer I can afford this.  Maybe I should take up a fund to pay for my back?  Do you notice that people are doing that all the time?  They are just starting their own campaigns to pay for things?  I think that’s a good way to go.  I digress.  And of course it didn’t help that the world, or at least the USA was rocked by another awful school shooting last week, but that very same day my house mate’s mother passed away.  I took her to the airport last night so now I have the place to myself for two weeks!

Yesterday, after I went to the airport to drop my friend off I took my other friend to Bright Night’s in Springfield, Massachusetts.  You know what it’s like to see things as a kid and then see them again and they don’t look the same?  That’s what it felt like to me.  Basically it’s supposed to be this huge light display that goes for miles and miles.  That it does but I felt like there wasn’t much bling, just a few string of lights here and there and then one or two really nice displays.  It definitely wasn’t worth the $18 in admission price.  I was just glad that I didn’t drive all the way down there just for that.

Ok, that’s all I have for this post.  It’s my day off but I have meetings scheduled at work all day and have to cook for a party!  Yipee!  I’ll try to post some more recipe’s this afternoon or tomorrow.  Be well!
