I was browsing through old blog posts of mine, and found a recurring theme with my depression. That is my next project, to re-post those old blog posts. My obvious depression became apparent back in 2006, when I started blogging. Re-reading those posts made me feel strange, but I realized that in regards to my level of depression, not much has changed sadly.

I wish I had been able to continue those blogs I had before. Google is so strange- um, hello- my Facebook link is there, and I see my current status, so how can you say that you cannot prove that I am the real owner??? SMH!

ANYWAY, I saved every single blog post from the two blogs I used the most and copied them to a word document- turned into a 75 page major essay, LOL!  So starting with my next blog post I will be starting from the beginning and work my way back to now, and I will re-post them all! I hope that will give a lot of my readers a better understanding of who I am, especially for those of you who never read my old blog! And for those of you who did read it, I'm sure it will bring back many memories... :o)

I also will be making changes to my current blog- changes in layout and theme, but that will have to wait for a day that I have the ENTIRE day free!
