For the first time in a long while I actually spent the day reading. I read a lot of blogs today! Rye had a friend spend the night last night and they have been together all day today so I actually had a minute or two or more to myself. It’s been lovely.
As a result [...]
Well, I guess I should be out there partying like the rest of the world tonight but I’m just too tired. We all are. We have been a lot of places this past week and it’s been fun but enough is enough already. So we are relaxing at home and I have to say, it’s [...]
Well, I am officially signing out until after Christmas. We are heading to the mountains and then to New York to spend time with God, family and friends.
I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday. May peace be with you.
And Stephany, may God watch over you and your daughter during this difficult time. Yor are both [...]
Well, apparently things are looking good in Rye’s world these days.
He got up the other morning and told me he had a great dream. He dreamed there was chocolate milk everywhere and he was drinking it with a 14 karat gold cup. As much as he wanted.
So funny how his world gets translated. But it’s [...]
December is our anniversary month and I just have to take a moment and tell Don how happy I am that I married him!
Look at us.
Look at how incredibly lovely we are!! Man, we are gorgeous!
Ooof…gorgeous but bitter.
Seriously, who wants to live like that? So beautiful and yet so bitter.
In that, I’ll take the truth [...]
Many people say yes.
And it’s an interesting thought to me.
From what I have read, it is not to say that other countries do not have bipolar children. Obviously, they do. And, it is not to say that the symptoms listed as DSM-IV criteria for Pediatric Bipolar Disorder do not occur in children around the world. [...]
Yesterday, as a part of our home-grown Ferris Bueller-esque detox program, Rye and I watched the movie “Up” by Pixar.
Oh man, I can’t tell you how much I enjoyed this movie!
If you have not seen this movie, see it. It was so good. I was really hesitant to watch it at first because when I [...]
In our house, we like to laugh. No, we love to laugh.
We love comedy, we love jokes and joking around, and we love being silly. And when Rye gets going he is one of the funniest people I’ve ever met.
Laughter is really the 6th food group in our house.
This is from the movie [...]

Cinda is a Special Education Professor in Seattle and Linea is her daughter who is a college student, artist and young adult living with bipolar disorder.
These two ladies are out on the [...]
Things are going well over here in our world.
My fever is gone and I took my first standardized test in years on Saturday and hopefully passed. Don did some serious cleaning around the house while I was out and our kitchen is now cleaner than I think it’s been in years – it’s wonderful!
And Rye [...]
Well, it’s Friday the 13th and unfortunately I am sitting here burning up with a fever. I guess my body finally gave in and caved to the illness it’s been fighting all week.
Bummer.
Anyhoo, today is Gam-Gam’s birthday. And it’s a big one!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY, GAM!
In a tribute to you on your big day I thought I’d [...]
