When Does Spring Start, Again?
I've managed to find a pretty good balance the last decade or so, since I finally found a job that I enjoyed, rather than just having to endure. But then winters like this one happen, when other RL issues stack up to the point where I'm reminded that the combination of (a) attention deficit disorder, (b) dysthymia - or I guess they're calling it 'persistent depressive disorder' these days, and (c) seasonal affective disorder is really easy to derail into a Pit of Despair.
Thank God it's finally light outside again when I leave work. And that my mom's sister and her family have finally, finally moved out of my mother's house and back into their own, so I'm not constantly having to spend what few spoons I manage to scrounge up salvaging her emotional health. Maybe by my birthday I'll even have enough energy back to write more than a few words a week again. I can hope, anyway. *crossing fingers*
Anyway! I did receive two lovely gift fics out of Chocolate Box, even if I've had no luck finishing anything else lately:
Not Ready by Chosenfire - B:tVS post-series, 2701 words, Buffy/Spike
"I'm not ready for you to not be here." - Buffy can’t leave Sunnydale behind without knowing what happened to Spike. A post series divergent.
Nothing Ventured by alamorn - Firefly post-series, 1090 words, Inara/River.
Inara doesn't service crew. Except when she does.

Sorry to hear you've had a rough winter. It sounds like things may be looking up - fingers crossed the longer days and quieter family situation mean more energy/a better mental state for you.
