I’m manic today and as usual I love it. The bad part, however, is Maurice wants to chill on his day off. As a result I want to bounce, bounce, bounce all around the house and he wants to watch the tube. In our tiny apartment that is not a good combination. I always love […]

I Am NOT Okay
I hear it all the time, “I’m glad to see you are much better.” “How are you doing?” “You look so much better today” etc. etc. etc. I’ve got news for you folks…I’m NOT better. OK, maybe I am from a few months ago, but unless they come up with a cure I will have […]
Ch-Ch-Ch-Ch-Changes
A dollop of this, a smidgen of that, add a little of this, and then a pinch of this and a pinch of that and what do you get? Finally something to control your mania. But wait, something just isn’t tasting right. So we now have to add a spoon of this and a sprinkle […]

Mania, Depression & Weight – Oh My!
My mania and depression are out of control. Ever take one of those small roller coaster’s that you think are going to be an easy ride, then you find it bumps and shakes and is more nerve wracking than a large one? Damn! I hate those, but that’s me these days. Nothing too high, nothing […]
Back On My Feet Again – Mostly
The worst of the food poisoning has passed, thank God. It still feels like there was a boxing match inside my body, but at least I don’t feel the sickness. I wouldn’t wish that on anyone…well, actually, to be honest, there’s a few I would wish it upon. Melissa from the high school, for example. […]
Happy Happy Joy Joy
Yesterday afternoon was the big day to check my weight. Based on the title I won’t try to hold you in suspense. I’ve now lost 9 pounds out of my current 24 pound weight goal. I stood in shock and couldn’t believe what I was seeing. My doctor came up behind me and said, I […]
