Seven reasons I am ready for the New Year

December 30, 2019 by Depression Is Not My Boss Leave a Comment

I am sure I will make a New Year’s resolution or two. But I won’t need to go far to find them. My resolutions or plan for the new year is the same today as it was yesterday.

Facing the New year is exciting, not … [Read more...] about Seven reasons I am ready for the New Year

December 26, 2019 by Depression Is Not My Boss Leave a Comment

Right now, I have moving my desk on my list with a lower priority than scheduling my colonoscopy. But the truth is, each time I move my desk, I get a renewed sense of purpose. The actions of cleaning, organizing, and then actually moving the desk gives me a "fresh start." And happily, I have learned many other ways to help with my attitude and fresh starts.
