You know how you sometimes start a project and can't stop? Well, that's especially true with hypomania, which I think I've got a touch of. In fact, I'm taking my patch off until tomorrow to let things calm. (New decision there).
But when I started ironing today and putting away clothes and sorting things to make space for my size 12s I just couldn't stop. And boy do I have a funny looking closet.........And a cleaned and newly organized for patch care bathroom sink........
OK, time for a patch break. I think. Getting sleepy, will give it 10 minutes.......Hate wasting any part of a $20/day habit that I so far haven't been reimbursed by insurnace for...........

About Me
- Just Me
- Over the years I have noticed that when I have the least hope a rainbow appears. Rainbows are a wonderful combination of beauty, hope, happiness and rain, the product of ugly grey clouds that hide the beauty of the sky. The beauty that is a rainbow can only come with the presence of both rain and sun. Such is life with bipolar disorder. There are good times, there are tough times, and there are rainbows to remind us that beauty will return, sometimes fleetingly and sometimes for a long time. This blog is my story of sadness and hope. Please scroll down to "Who I Am" under Pages to read more about me and the people who populate this blog.

Interesting. Your two posts were EXACTLY to the minute one hour apart. I'm way over here in Pacific Standard Time so I was just checking when you wrote.
I'm sure you're anxious about going back to work. I would be!
I'll be praying for you. I wish I knew exactly how to pray "The Bipolar Prayer"...but God and I will keep talking. I LOVE the following scripture because it speaks about the Holy Spirit praying FOR US "with groaning too deep for words." I need to remember that groans can be a prayers; words aren't necessary.
"In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit Himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express. And He who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for the saints in accordance with God's will. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love Him,who have been called according to His purpose." Romans 8: 26-28
You called the last post "Wow"~~ that's often what I think about stuff. Just "wow."
Well, you're a "wow" too, JustMe! You ARE called according to His purpose.
Rest in Him, Michal
