A Little Effort

 I’ve been trying to go Around the block at least once a day if I don’t go out of the house. Rain or shine, which today was very hot and yesterday it was a little wet. I did  Feel motivated to do anything. And that little bit of sunshine really gave me a boost although each day is different. I’m still struggling to find my new normal. My medicine makes me sleepy and I have to take it early in the day because it also irritates my muscles. My point is I’m trying to give myself some little goals so I can start to see the needle move back in the right direction. I have gained at least 10 if not 20 pounds in the last few months and that’s very discouraging after losing so much weight. I’m afraid to weigh myself because I don’t wanna find out how bad it is. I’m gonna try to do some positive goals and then we’ll see how bad things look exercise every day. Certainly going to be part of the goal. In addition eating better. Vegetables every day, protein, every day and no more sugar. Now that you’ve heard my very unexciting list of do's and don’ts, I’m going to go get ready to face some more of my life.

Confessions

I am starting my own blog to reduce my boredom and give me a place to put my thoughts. Recently some people I know put some very difficult words out for all the world to see. I have been chicken to do the same and now I want to set the record straight. I didn't talk to people from high school for over ten years. It seems so silly now. I found out recently that I'm not the only one who grew up in college and beyond. We aren't kids anymore so the past is just that the past. I'll admit some of it I don't want to remember, but we did have some fun times in high school. The truth is something happened to me that I was not at all ready to talk about so I just avoided people. I got married in 1998 to a really great guy I met in college. We were giddy and in love. We decided after nine months of bliss to have a baby. Why not? I was bored and we wanted one. That sounds terrible to say that, but it is true. Boom one month later I was expecting. Three months later Jo...

The Fall Keeps Falling

I am running out of good title ideas. Maybe I need to unlock comments again.(: Anyway, I am having a challenge this raining morning. Afternoon now. Yikes! I still feel achy since mt flu shot last week. I can't seem to get anything done. Not even sure where to start. I think there's been an avalanche and I am under it all. If my therapist was here she would tell me to make a list. Somehow magically that will work. I tried to do my vision exercises and my eyes wouldn't coorperate so there something physical. Probably head pressure from the allergies. So herein is the deal. I will try to get a space cleared and then call it a day.

Ansomnia

Up in the wee hours of the morning, is yet another perk of being bipolar. Yes, that's sarcasm because unlike some, I don't like being like this. I started getting a little more hyper than usual and now I can't sleep. I slept for an hour or two when hubby woke me up and I couldn't get back to sleep after. So I wasn't worried about anything, but I was wide awake. Even though I now feel tired, I still don't feel sleepy. It is hard to explain. Well I already took some calm down medicine and that didn't work so I am getting ready to take more. I use it only when I have to, but considering I need to function in a few hours I WILL consider this one of those times. I was excited about started school and I guess maybe I am going through an up cycle. That sort of makes sense since I had a down cycle in the beginning of the summer. I am glad that the cycles are much shorter than they used to be. I remember being tired and having little energy or ambition to do anyt...
