Day 1

Well this is day 1 of blogging and I have no idea what I am doing.

I am getting sleepy. The weather is horrible today so I am not going to write a lot right now. I am going to get away from writing everything on facebook and try writing on here.

I have lots of different interests. This one I guess will be for my personal venting/ranting. If you are reading and get offended easily especially if you try to give advice and I don't take it, then you might want to keep going bc that's one reason I'm trying to get away from FB. I need a place to be able to put my thoughts and feelings without being judged and criticized for everything I say and do.

As the title suggests I am bipolar. I also am a RECOVERING alcoholic and have major anxiety problems. I do not have a car so I am stuck at home most of the time with no way to go especially on days like this when it's yucky outside.

I am in a lot of pain today and the darker it gets outside, the darker my mood gets. I know I need to get up and do something but haven't been able to make myself do so yet.

My interests include health and fitness (I've lost 60 lbs in the last year and a half), couponing, photography (want to travel the world and take pictures but gotta wait until the kids are grown and get into college), parenting issues. I am a mother of 4 ages 18, 15, 14, and 10.

I guess that's all I will write for now. I promise it will be more interesting later once I figure out what I'm doing ;)
