Death to Concern Trolls

The Scarlet B Posted on December 4, 2016 by RaeynDecember 4, 2016

It’s cold here. But not cold enough to snow. Ergo, the cold is unconscionably rude. *nodnods* It doesn’t help that I also *have* a cold. Having a cold always makes me feel like a whiny wimp, ha ha. I’d forgotten … Continue reading →

Static

The Scarlet B Posted on December 7, 2013 by RaeynAugust 28, 2014

Yeah yeah yeah, still reputedly alive. It’s just buried under a layer of brain fog and chronic fatigue and ‘people are existing and bothering me’ stress. Part of the dealing with people was good and fun — I took part … Continue reading →

I *AM* Trying: The Story of Counseling Not Working (Ever)

The Scarlet B Posted on August 21, 2013 by RaeynAugust 21, 2013

I Don’t Like the Drugs…

The Scarlet B Posted on July 3, 2013 by RaeynAugust 28, 2014

Every now and again, I get a request to host advertising either here on this blog, or over on The Bipolar Blogger Network. I ignore them as a general rule of thumb — I don’t see the need to have … Continue reading →

A Sad Lack of Crafting (Shake That Cane)

The Scarlet B Posted on June 23, 2013 by RaeynJune 23, 2013

I’ve not been able to pick up my knitting in days, to my dismay. Well, I could have picked it up, but I couldn’t really do anything with it — all my joints are angry right now. I’m not even … Continue reading →

Apex and Nadir (Or Why I’m Not Much a Fan of Rollercoasters)

The Scarlet B Posted on June 21, 2013 by RaeynJune 21, 2013

Growing up in the DFW Metroplex meant that my family normally had season passes to Six Flags Over Texas. It wasn’t exactly the cheapest indulgence, but my parents did try to spoil us rotten as best they could (to a … Continue reading →

I’m Quite Okay (Sort Of)

The Scarlet B Posted on June 19, 2013 by RaeynJune 19, 2013

It’s that old saw in bipolar blogging — when you’re doing well, there’s almost nothing to say. If you’re like me, it’s in part ’cause you’re busy enjoying feeling good (or better — it’s all relative). I’m still feeling worn … Continue reading →

The Scarlet B Posted on May 24, 2013 by RaeynAugust 28, 2014
