When Was the Last Time You Had a Good Cry?
I’m having a “good cry” right now, though good is not how it feels. It reminds me of the scene in Something’s Gotta Give, when Diane Keaton is sobbing at her keyboard. Details to follow when I’m not so raw.

I’m sorry you’re feeling that way; it’s no fun…
Thank you for saying that. It helps A LOT. Really!!!
You DO always post such well-matched art! I’m in awe. I am also so sorry something’s hit and turned you sideways. Crying puddles is really crummy…
It has been awhile since I’ve cried. And I’m trying to remember all that I’m grateful for. (Though right now, that’s hard.) For sure, hearing from you soothes my soul.
So sorry to read you are feeling down. I hope you are beyond the rawness now. When I have that kind of cry it takes me a while to recover. On the other hand, I have “little” cry episodes all the time – watching the news from Egypt, hearing about soldiers and their families, puppies – you name it, and if there is anything touching about it, I will cry a little. One of my friends is fond of telling everyone that I cry at AT&T commercials. She’s not that far off….
Cheers!
