Weekend self-care open thread: It will get better, my friends

Well. To say that I was at a low ebb yesterday would be an understatement. The past four weeks have been nothing but hell for me, between my Covid, the assault I suffered at work, and then my hospitalization. I was down. I was dejected. I was at my limit.

But, I'm a fortunate man. I have a wife who loves me. I have family and friends who would take a bullet for me, and I for them. When the world goes to shit, your circle is who you can rely on. I and all of us need to remember this. We are not alone. The darkness will pass, and we will see the light again.

So yeah, this weekend we have music that says it's gonna be all right.

It's not right. But it's okay. We're gonna make it anyway.

As always, dear friends, be ever kind, gentle, and joyful with yourselves and those around you.
