Well .......Hello, I Guess.....

.....and welcome!





A nice way to start I feel. Not gonna blather on about who I am - read my profile it's all in there. I guess I should really say why I am writing this blog - and hoping someone will read it. I was diagnosed in September 2005 with Rapid Cycling Bipolar Disorder and less than 4 years later I've bored everyone I know to tears with it so need to seek a new audience!

Actually thats not strictly true - I haven't bored anyone to tears (except maybe my lovely Nyge and my CMHW Jacquie) as I have no one left to bore to tears - you know that saying about a sinking ship? Well I was that ship and boy! did I have a lot of rats leave me....

Oh they're all still there in the background - some have even been nice enough to friend me on Facebook as they just couldn't be brave enough to admit they didn't want to associate with me once I'd been tarred with the 'mental health' brush - but I haven't been invited on many nights out recently. They know who they are...

Then again it could be my fault - what with the 3 week sleep-a-thons and never having any money due to the fact that every new obssession is the one that will make me a fortune so I need all the right gear - right? And the fact that I no longer drink like a fish and dance til sunrise - preferring a nice night in with the telly and a mug of tea and a box of sour cream and chive pringles. (Is it a box or a tub?or even a tube?)


So - today is what? 14th of a new year and I have been outside of my front door for approximately 6 hours since the dawn of 2009...and most of that was enforced due to our current predicament of having only 16 days left until we are homeless....Happy New Year! I'm hoping to spend sometime with my friend Rabbit today, who cancelled on me last week due to a hangover, but I feel this will be cancelled too as judging by his Facebook comments he may have made other plans. Watch This Space!
