    calley, you are a silly sausage! I have felt like you on many an occasion.

    I have just had toasted rolls and cheese and cucumber for lunch. It was surprisingly good.

    Got to go and try and magic up some money from somewhere to get me through the week. (Some people owe me and haven't paid it yet).

    I did buy a prepayment prescription recently so at least I will be in better control of medicine this year.

    How are you, WaS?

    Oooft. Busy day today. Actually been doing some work, but worked from home so have also got dinner in the slow cooker, ran the dishwasher, done two loads of washing, done the shredding that was piled up in the corner, broke up the boxes for recycling, picked up all the dog poo from the garden, brushed a very muddy DA dog and switched energy suppliers.

    House still looks like a tornado has been through it but it's a little better than it was.

    I took Gitdog for a long walk in the park, oblivious to it being half term. I was just thinking how chilled he was being, all things considered, when I spotted him eying up the toddler's doll hanging out of the back of her bike.

    I've been trying to type up the notes I made in the meeting last Tuesday.

    Between the rubbish notes (dyslexia) and time (6 sleeps since then :eek:) I made little sense of them. It took hours to try an decipher who was who and what was said.

    I'm still trying to fathom the book.... :huh:
    :huh: Don't know what I'm doing, but doing it anyway... :huh:

    I am watching Life, Animated on BBC4.

    You would probably like it WaS, given the you have worked with autistic people.There are some cartoon bits in it but hopefully nothing that would trigger you. You could probably stop and start it if you needed time to process bits.

    I've crashed

    I forgot whilst i was up that what goes up must inevitably come down and nothing is truer than that than with bipolar. The lows always follow the highs and i feel like i'm at rock bottom. Ended up being sent hom early from work yesterday cos i broke down :o:( also not helped by a small argument with Swain over money (manic spending sprees have consequences, also i owe him £200 and he was annoyed understandably that i couldnt give anything back last week). He also doesn;t seem his usual self today. I feel useless because theres nothing i can do right now to make him fee any better and im struggling to try and make it better when i feel like absolute !!!!! myself. :(

    went back to work today as i basically can;t afford to be off sick (dont get paid for first 3 days and couldnt afford to lose that many hours). No idea what triggered the hypermania which is irritating (and scares) the hell out of me. I tried to make a doctors appointment but coudnt get one till 16th march :mad: so sod it i will ring up tomorrow for an emergency one. i can;t let this go on another 3 weeks. I can;t deal with feeling like this for any longer than i have to. And i'm insiting on a referall back to the mental health team. I need more support than im getting.

    Eurgh. If anyone wants me i'll be curled up in the blanket fort hoping this all blows over soon. :(

    (((( MU )))) I hope you manage to get an emergency appointment and that everything goes okay.

    I'm sure Swain will be fine and he's probably just as worried about not being able to make things better for you as you are about him. Is this the first time you've been manic since you've been together?

    Best wishes for your appointment, MU.

    I feel bad when I argue with DH, but he invariably hasn't realised that we have argued! He thinks we have just had a discussion about something that needs tweaking. I think that he is about to announce that he wants a divorce! Please try not to worry.

    Afternoon my lovelies,

    Hugs and squishes and handshakes all round. Extra for MU see you in the fort later.

    Yesterday did get better, Thank you WW I know its just silly. AM nearly made me cry last night and this morning. last night he said I was the best thing that ever happened to him. And this morning he said while doing the washing up and listening to music last night he felt very happy.

    I know that I am very lucky to have found him. As I have said before not everyones cup of tea look wise. 6ft 2 and 20ish st, balding. But he has these amazing brown eyes. like liquid chocolate. And he is so kind and caring and loving.

    But not a very good start to the day could not get up again. And bailed on going to see my husband. And feeling like I want to cry again.

    Penguin about eating

    Well AM forgot his lunch so I ate it as well as 5 pots of chocolate mousse and now eating his M & M's

    Big fat heifer I am

    Penguin end

    Feel I am slipping backwards but I now have the best support I could ask for in AM. I think its due to the stress of him moving in and having to find space for everything. Glad when its all done and dusted. And things have been sorted out.

    Think I need to get a dr's appointment to get to the bottom of this. its just not being lazy or depressed. its physical, I am tired all the time even after a what I think is a decent nights sleep.

    Anyway enough about me.

    Everyone take care.

    Yours

    Calley X
