Hi Mom,
You were in my dreams last night, unfortunately I can't seem to remember them very well. I just know it was nice seeing you even if only briefly.
I forced myself to work hard today and finished a commission that had been in progress for some time. It did feel good to get that out of the way and I felt great while I was doing it. Almost immediately afterwards though, the depression settled right in, rather it was like a large wave that came crashing down on me.
We went for a short walk in the woods before dinner and that helped some. I'm reading a novel right now that takes place in Japan, somewhere I would like to visit someday. Reading books and watching movies that take place in foreign places are especially appealing right now as it is a welcome escape from my thoughts.
We think of you and miss you.
