For many, this will fall under the category of TMI, but I hate to bathe. As a teen, even when very depressed, I still spent 15 – 30 minutes in the shower. But now it’s hard to drag my ass in there. I’ve talked with people who say they have the same problem when they […]

I KANT SPEL
I won the 5th grade spelling bee. Of course, it’s one of my proudest achievements in life. I continued to be a very good speller up until now. Suddenly over the past couple of months I’m having a strange problem with my spelling. Suddenly I’m spelling words like they sound. Today I caught myself spelling […]
Tremors
Californians really don’t think about earthquakes that much. Tremors occur every day, but most are too small to feel. The last one that Maurice and I felt was about two months ago. It threw us both up out of our chairs for a second but that was it. Not much. The only other one I […]
Blue Monday
I’m depressed again today. Yippie! This roller coaster is so fun. I’m real lethargic today and edgy. The temperature has dropped so I can’t blame that, dammit. I much prefer to have something to blame. I just plain feel blah. Thank you to everyone who has left comments. I appreciate them very much. I think […]

Doing Laundry and Thinking ‘Bout Marriage
Wow, the past couple of posts were real downers. Maybe I shouldn’t post when I’m low depressed. I’ll chase everyone away. I actually haven’t started doing the laundry yet, but I did sort them and took a load down to the laundry room. It’s not my fault that all the washers were taken. For those […]
I Got The Blues
Feel like shit. We had a table set up today, as we do every Sunday, and didn’t sell a single one of the concert tickets. The LGBT church group that I’m chairperson of is fizzling out. When we first got it active we had 30 people attending but it dropped as expected. But now we’re […]
Out of the Starting Gate
I’m not sure what to say in my first post. It’s kind of like when people start in yearbooks or letters with “What can I say?” That’s always driven me crazy. This blog will reflect my daily thoughts, random musings as well as a record of my struggle with bipolar and weight. I’m hoping that […]
