6. Love you too, Aristus

Yesterday

And I know just how you feel. The joy in life is gone for me. I know we are not supposed to discuss politics in The Lounge, so I won't, but I just want to feel safe and yes, happy again.

There are times I want a stiff drink in the middle of the day, so my husband and I only have wine in the house. I'm not going to let present circumstances lead me down that dark path. I pray for happier days. Soon.

See you tonight, friend.
