Oh Fred, I'm sorry things have been so hard for you, and hope they continue to get better.
No. And yes. It's always sudden.

Goodbye and Good Riddance 2017: That'll put marzipan in your pie plate, Bingo!
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering.
Go away, 2017. You have a lot to turn around, 2018. Bring it on.

What a rough year, Fred. I'm glad you're finding ways through and some useful things enroute.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
And I just got it, Connie!
You got me a wee Japanese hedgie! With a tomato!
Also, a big ol' candle that is the perfect combo of woodsy & fresh.
Thank you, Connie!!

Our wings are not tired.
Many monsters, quester!
I have a spectacularly fragrant box here from Anne, but I am being a good girl and trying to keep from opening the pretty wrapping paper until Christmas. Because I like to taunt myself!
I have not done my Santa thingy yet because life has been hectic, but I expect that the coming week will be calmer.

I'm going to be later than usual with my gifts - I still need to bake and I have a bunch of school work to do before I can take the time to bake. But I love hearing about others getting their gifties!
