Especially the Little Things

The Scarlet B Posted on August 18, 2012 by RaeynAugust 18, 2012

I had forgotten that I’d admonished my husband into taking some time off tonight, so he surprised me when he reminded me he was going out. It was good though; even if I only shifted three feet from my chair … Continue reading →

It’s a Trap!

The Scarlet B Posted on August 17, 2012 by RaeynAugust 17, 2012

Can that phrase be used enough? Nope! I was relieved today to receive my appointment card for my next meeting with my mental health doctor-ma-bob, and more so relieved because it’s before I’m going out of the country to visit … Continue reading →

Keeping Busy

The Scarlet B Posted on August 16, 2012 by RaeynAugust 16, 2012

I’m bemused, my friends — I’ve been trying to cull myself of busyness. But suddenly, I find it’s the best and semi-healthiest coping mechanism I have. I can’t drink or smoke or get obliterated to find silence and succor anymore; … Continue reading →

Brain Stew

The Scarlet B Posted on August 15, 2012 by RaeynAugust 15, 2012

  As I’ve been sitting here this morning noon trying to dredge my mind for thoughts and reflections, I instead hit upon a batch of questions as pertains to trying to blog daily about living with Bipolar. Do my efforts … Continue reading →

Torn

The Scarlet B Posted on August 14, 2012 by RaeynAugust 14, 2012

I’m vexed as of late; I want to keep writing on the daily, but I am having a severe thought drought. As this period of depression stretches into the… third? third or so month, I’m just… here. Clinging on. Hoping … Continue reading →

Feel Like Making Whine

The Scarlet B Posted on August 13, 2012 by RaeynAugust 13, 2012

As silly as it might sound, every time I vent here, which is generally a healthy way to go about it, I feel incredibly whiny. I sit on a lot more than I probably should because I don’t want to … Continue reading →

Bah

The Scarlet B Posted on August 12, 2012 by RaeynAugust 12, 2012

I was trying to force myself to skip a day of posting, but now I’m in need of a grumble. I got sideswiped by ‘Surprise, Rage!‘, and I needed to growl it out. I am rather vexed at my brain … Continue reading →

Nothing Much Today

The Scarlet B Posted on August 11, 2012 by RaeynAugust 11, 2012

Which is for the best really, as motivation is fairly non-existent. I managed to cajole myself into bathing (which, as many of you know, IS a big achievement during periods of depression). I also managed to bake some cookies, but … Continue reading →

Whatever May Happen…

The Scarlet B Posted on August 10, 2012 by RaeynAugust 10, 2012

Whatever may happen, I have banana bread today, and likely will have chocolate chip cookies tomorrow. *chuckles* I swear — my life doesn’t revolve around eating or food, but it is pleasing when the concept of eating for more than … Continue reading →

Still Wobbling

The Scarlet B Posted on August 9, 2012 by RaeynAugust 9, 2012

Today is a bit sadder-feeling than yesterday, so yanno… keeping on par down near the bottom of the well. But instead of whining and reflecting on that today, I figured I’d share a recipe that is a favorite of mine. … Continue reading →
