Making art, trying to socialize

Gabby left us some time in the night. She is resting in a nice spot in my front yard, where I can visit her. She had left the night before her body gave up. I do not regret opting out of euthanasia. She did not seem so suffer too much and I got my time with her in the end. I am glad it's over.

One of my cats has been dying for the past few months. Struggling with the decision for her as to stay as long as she can or end things early. I try to look at it as if it was myself and what I would want. I would choose to stay as long as I could. This is all we get. My beautiful Gabby

Also I have 2 kittens. It was not planned, but a stray cat showed up at my parent's. She became pregnant shortly after and after socializing her and then her kittens I took 2 kittens in. The delight of kittens with the misery of sick old cat has been hard. Good days will happen again.

I'll try to post more pics of them, but they move too much for nice ones right now. They are still in isolation and probably will be until the current situation resolves itself. Hopefully they can be buddies to Molly. All the kittens and the mom have done the vet thing and are doing well.

When under stress I tend to loose my appetite. As a result I'm down 10lbs but I do have some extra weight to loose. I'm loosing my friend of 15 years who I bottle fed and raised. I hope I have made the best decision for her. She will be survived by her sister.

I hate this human social system so much. I need someone to take me and pull me through it. I am not good at reaching out. People do not reach for others anymore. I will be attempting to reach out in ways going forward. I'm not sure what to do.

The whole problem right now is the government's involvement with companies. The government is representative of the people and companies are by nature anti people. That is the whole reason unions exist. If the government is pro companies then it is anti people. NOT of the people.

My acute depression is gone and I think I know what helped. It sounds crazy but a bowl of fiber cereal... I kind of want it to happen again to test, but also never want that to happen again. That was an awful few days. ๐Ÿ˜Œ

Well that was wild I feel better today, but we will see if it holds. I might delete some of that or just let it stand. I don't think it hurts anyone. Sorry if I worry anyone. It was not good.

I feel like reality is hitting me all at once. Like I lost time and it's all hitting me now. Is this depression, some kind of mid life crisis. I want to feel better, but I don't know what's wrong. Time is marked by what you do but nothing I do makes time in my head. It all just slips away.

I need friends. I want people around, but I hate the obligation people bring. I need to be able to disappear but I won't come back on my own. Some one needs to reach for me. Pull me to be social I won't do it on my own.

I'm so afraid of doing things I don't what to do. I'm starting to do things again, but the last time I did things it broke me. I hope some freedom helps, this time and does not make it worse. I feel so terrible right now I'm just waiting for this feeling to pass. Writing it down so I can remember.

You are up to date.
