Hi Dinah,
I'm doing okay. Trying to convince myself that self medicating with wine is not a good way to get through Thanksgiving dinner. But it's what I've been doing for years, why change tradition?
I had to ask my parents to buy the fixings for Thanksgiving dinner, because we can't afford it. Usually we buy everything, but dessert. This year I feel like an ad for the Salvation Army. Can you help this poor soul have a happy Thanksgiving?
My brother will be coming over. I don't want to think about it. I feel like standing on my chair and screaming at him and my parents. They should pay for my therapy and meds since the emotional damage was inflicted by my brother and their ignoring my brother. But they don't know I'm in therapy and they better stay out of the medicine cabinet.
Oh, my God, I'm ranting. Sorry. Sorry. I see my T tomorrow I'll save it for her.
On a more positive note, a potential employer called me asking to send references. Maybe I'll get a second interview next week, that'll help me feel better about myself mentally, physically and economically.
Thanks for asking how I'm doing. I know you're going through a lot with your parents these days.
