    sorry to hear you're still struggling old friend. I hope some good things are sandwiched in as well. I've had a bit of a rough spell with my mom passing away and was sick for a time. Still hoping to take more action toward change. I dream too much.

    Oh wow, it's been a long time! How are you? It's nice to see you. I haven't been on SAS hardly at all for like a year. Trying to focus on art in the second half of 2017, and in the first half, was constantly looking for a house. I inherited a little money (enough for a down payment) and could either fritter it away and have nothing to show for it, or, spend it all fast and get back on disability. You're allowed to have a house and a car if you're disabled, which is nice. So I got a house and a 2009 Mustang. Very cool...too cool for my old lady self. I'm almost embarassed about it, but a lot of other old people have them. It's been about a yr since we were given a dog by some strangers while in the salvation army store. I think you've seen him--Simon. One of my paintings won the Best of Show at the southern NM state fair in Oct! I'll post a photo separately.

    Ok, so you know I will ask--did you quit :cig yet? How are you doing, and how the writing coming?

    It's been a while, John. We've spent a few years at this place. I wish I could say I've gotten better but at least I've met some cool people such as yourself. How's it been going?

    hey john, great to hear from you. it's a puzzling thing, lol, but my anxiety has exploded the past 6 months. things i once had the capacity to do now send me into near convulsions. honestly i don't know what to make of it. but, you know, I'm surrounded by good fortune as well. I know in my heart of hearts that I'm lucky. I think more than anything I want to return the favor. I'm thinking I may blog about that.

    I'm sorry to hear you're not doing well. Is there anything I can do to help? Maybe give me your address in a PM and I can shoot you a line or send you something. You've been here since the beginning, a loyal friend and don't think I don't appreciate it. Keep me posted. Take care, man. :squeeze

    Hey john , just checking in to say hi. Hope you're finding a few good moments here and there. I just OD-ed on a bunch of chocolate chips. Whatever it takes, right? :)

    Hey John! Great hearing from you. Sorry things aren't good. Mentally/spiritually/emotionally I'm in bad shape but am using denial to its utmost so I appear ok. I'm not sure if I prefer the deadening denial brings or the gut wrenching emotion distraughtness does. I would like, more than anything to see myself making progress in some arena, lol. I have a terrible habit of being static. Shoot me a message anytime. I want to know what's up. Take care, my friend. :squeeze

    Hey John,

    It's great to hear from you my friend. I really hope the medical news is better than you expect. I'll be generating some serious good thoughts for you. It's really good to hear from you. I've been very depressed but in a weird groove where i'm keeping myself stable. It's at the cost of me leaving the house much (with the exception of work) and my motivation to take action is extremely low. I'm looking for a way to get some energy back. Other than that I am very fortunate. I have a loving wife and a roof over my head and three cats I adore. I hope there's a light at the end of your tunnel, buddy. PM any time. I'll be all all ears (or eyes). Take care. :squeeze

    Hey buddy, how's it been going? I don't have much to report, mainly working up the courage to phone an old friend. She's going to read me the riot act because I suck at calling people back but still I have to get in more of a habit of engaging directly with people. Take care. Let me know how you're doing.
