Under Construction - MHWA Retreat

Better late than never: How was the end of the 2010s for you? How has the start of the 2020s gone?
- The end of the 2010's was nice since I now have this wonderful and fulfilling job teaching at a local Christian school. The start of my 2020's has been rocky. Mental health and physical health flares make me feel like I'm on a roller coaster.

What have you been up to lately? Any new year (or decade) resolutions going on?
- no new resolutions, still attempting to better myself, better my outlook, and try like crazy to get healthy.

How were your holidays? Did you travel? See family? Get any nice gifts?
- holidays were nice. for the first time in a number of years, my husband went to the family gathering with me - as did my girls. my best and favorite gift was time spent with EVERYONE I love.

How has your mental health been lately? Any new therapy, medication, or self-care progress?
- my mental health has improved with only a few crashes - the lithium is helping a lot

Anything new with your writing or other hobbies? What have you been doing on WDC lately?
- I haven't had much time to write in a while, unfortunately. trying to get back in the swing of things again.

Do you have any non-labor intensive ideas for the group? (ie. things that would be fun to do together as a group that wouldn't require a lot of time/planning?)
- I can't think of anything but I'm open to doing something as a group again.
