 2.) I'm a mother to 3 boys, who are all grown men now, with their own lives
 3).I'm a grandmother to a wonderful little boy I call Boogie.
 4.) I have bipolar 2, I have obsessive compulsive disorder, and I also have post traumatic stress syndrome so in other words...I'm mental due to my abusive ex-husband.
 5.) I had my right kidney removed when I was 16 due to cysts.
 6.) I have a weenie dog(Waylon), a yellow lab (Emmy Lou), a cat (Callie O'Mallie), and a parrot(Tiki)
 7.) I love to craft...for the past few days I've been working on grunge paper roses.

New beginings

Well it's been a while since I've taken the time to write. I've been trying to get well. We've moved in with my daddy to help him and it also helps me. I miss my home but I need to make this my home. Our youngest son is living there. It's only about a block away from where we are at daddy's.
Our chicken adventure didn't go so well. It was fun at first but became very difficult for us to take care of them and ourselves so we gave them to our son's friend who raises chickens. I'm sure they are have a good ole chicken time! LOL
I'm still having trouble with my mental illness, but progress is being made every day. I'm trying to learn to accept things I can not change or do anything about. It's hard but I'm really starting to have a different out look. I'm finally able to cook a little again but I still can't drive. I've still been going to see my psychiatrist. She put me on Risperdal and Benzotropine which has helped tremendously. I take diazepam for the panic attacks that I still have. Things are not great but are definitely much better than they were a year ago! We just take it day by day and try to enjoy our life.
We've also been enjoying our grandson Brantley aka Boogie. He has brought so much joy to our lives. This is our son Brandon, Boogie and me while we were down back of our property shooting golf balls...yep that's how we play golf in the country!! :)
 
 
I've been trying to get back into my crafting too. John made big tables in the spare bedroom for his reloading and my crafting. He put pegboard on one wall so I can hang my stickers and he can hang his reloading things. Well I guess that's all for today. I'm going to find another 30 challenge so maybe I will start making daily post again. Fingers crossed :) Well I hope everyone has a great day

it's been a while!

Well it's been a while. I promised myself when I started this blog that I would post everyday but I've been going through a lot. I've been going to my psychiatrist and counselor and I've been diagnosed with bipolar 2 disorder. I don't know a lot about it yet...it's hard to concentrate on anything right now. I'm trying to research it and I've been doing my cognitive therapy. I don't know what else to say about it right now. My counselor did a test to determine what disorder if any I had  and decided it was the bipolar 2. Like I said I'm still very confused and don't know much about it and when you hear bipolar you think oh I'm crazy then! I go to my psychiatrist again on the 6th of next month and hopefully she can make some things more clear to me. I don't feel like doing much but being at home in the peace and quite. Some days I feel turned inside out and don't know what to do with myself. Hopefully a remedy will be made for me soon!
I also woke to the news that my cousin's girlfriend supposedly shot herself in the forehead at 2am yesterday morning and he didn't report it until around 9am this morning! She also had a big gash in her back. She was still alive but in a coma and he had put her in the bathtub to try and wake her up. He claims she had sit up and watched tv with him last night and was ok when she went to bed...really with a gunshot wound in her forehead? She is in surgery right now having the bullet removed...if it can be and they don't know if she is going to live are not!! He and his mother claim they didn't call 911 because their cell phones had been turned off and she begged them not to call because she would have refused treatment anyways. Oh and then this morning they remembered you can still call 911 on a deactivated cell phone. They have neighbors all around them and they have a car. Why not go to your neighbor or put her in the car and take her to the hospital regardless if she said she didn't want to? I would have taken someone to the hospital if they accidently grazed their toe with a bullet!!!!!!!  I just don't think 2+2 add up to 1 on this situation. Just Saturday night he had been at my sister's house drunk or doped up and was acting so strangely she went to her bedroom and locked herself inside the door. He went outside with her husband and ended up pulling a knife on a friend of ours and telling everyone he was going to kill them. He also has been hiding in the woods in front of my sister's house watching every thing  they do. He yells out the window at his mother's house that just wait they are all gonna be dead. He has ruined his brain with all the drugs and alcohol he does. He has had other girlfriends and a wife in the past that he has shot at and they didn't press charges on him so the police didn't do anything to him because the women wouldn't cooperate with the law. I don't believe she shot herself!! I think he did and I hope the truth comes out and he rots in jail for this if he did do it!!! If he didn't I still think he should still serve time for not getting her help sooner!!!
Well I guess that's all on this subject for now and hopefully some light will be shed on my disorder for me soon. I know some of my reader must be thinking wow what a crazy family you got there woman...I really hope not. If anyone can help me understand my disorder please comment and tell me about it please!!!!
