Right back where I started
One of my oldest and dearest friends shipped off to her new, albeit temporary, home today. With her departure, I feel as though I've lost my last friend. Over the last few months and years, my circle of friends has dwindled down to just about no one. There are a handful of people from whom I distanced myself. There's another handful of people who have distanced themselves from me. Then there are the peripheral friends, who don't consider me a core part of their group, so they don't necessarily include me in things. Which leaves me solo.
I've decided that this must be some sort of karmic retribution. That the punishment for my sins in this life or another is to suffer the one thing that I dread the most.

Etsy overload? Not possible!
I keep thinking that I'm going to overdo it with the whole 'crafty' thing, but then I keep seeing so many cool things and I just can't help myself!

What you don't do doesn't matter
I recently saw this post on The Art of Non-Conformity about how thinking about doing something and not doing it doesn't count. It isn't the thought that matters.
So many times, especially recently, I've thought about calling or e-mailing someone, sending them a card, or making something for someone. I've thought about volunteering more, or visiting a friend... But so often, I just don't do it. I don't get around to it. Or I decide that I'll do it another time.
I suppose that reading this makes me feel even more guilty about not doing the little things for other people that I think about doing. And I've also realized that life is short, and time is precious. There's no time like the present to show people that you care.

Ups and Downs
I was having an awesome last few weeks. I've been happy, excited, hopeful, peaceful. But the last couple of days have been different. I'm in a funk again, and I guess all I can do is ride out the storm.
