    The last month has been hell and stressful for me. My husband and I are trying to work on our marriage, after I told him I wanted a divorce. I'm having major seasonal affect disorder for some reason, etc. etc.

    Anyway, there's no way I am going to catch up and finish :( I have been in such a funk, and it's been so stressful around here. I got 10 done, I'm happy with that I guess.

    Good luck to everyone who finishes!

    I'm sorry! That's so tough. But 10 is awesome! That's 2 more than the regular monthly challenges.
    I hope your year gets better.

    Oh Amy Lee, I so understand some of what you are going through. I'm sorry your month has been so hard. Seasonal Affective Disorder for some reason? After the winter we've had? Do you have a light box? Or do you take Vit D? I just started Vit D again and it helps. But when home is hard, a little help isn't enough.
    Like Courtney said 10 is more than the challenges each month. And maybe you can make another or maybe not. Just be proud of accomplishing that much when you are going through so much.
    Sending you hugs. Take care and come vent. Or you can PM me if you want to talk.
    Take care of you.

    I think you did great to achieve any pages at all whilst going through a crappy time. I've been through a divorce and its a tough time. I wish you the best.

    So sorry to hear about the real challenges in your life. Take the time you need for what's important to you. Maybe some artsy journaling when you have time to get the feelings down on paper. :grouphug

    So sorry to hear that this has been such a rough month for you. That's a whole lot of real life challenges to be dealing with all at once. The good news is that there's always next year for MOC. Or you can always just copy the ideas down for the challenges and finish them later if that's something you want to do. I pray that things start to get a little bit better for you each and every day.

    My goodness, you've got to take care of yourself first before worrying about all of this scrappy stuff! Here's hoping that springtime comes soon. Your month of hell will be over before you know it. Keep us posted with any updates. We are all rooting for you!

    ... I just had a thought.... someone needs to invent a computer monitor that gives off the kind of light that we get from the sun that helps eliminate SAD for people who don't get any real sun in the winter months! Wouldn't THAT be cool? We could literally call our scrappy time... therapy time too!
