September 30, 2015: Three Good Things

1. I got a chance to use a coping skill today while waiting for the car to be repaired. When I walked into the large waiting area, there was a woman speaking loudly on the phone in a foreign language. I have nothing against that, but because I didn’t understand what she was saying, and… Read More September 30, 2015: Three Good Things

Expensive Productivity, Part Two

This one’s going to be kinda quick and dirty. Hope you’re okay with quick and dirty. (I said quick and dirty, heh heh.) Went back to the dealership today to have the new rim and new tires installed (they had to special order the rim and have it overnighted to the shop, hence the need… Read More Expensive Productivity, Part Two

September 29, 2015: Three Good Things

Didn’t I just do this yesterday? Anyway, here goes. 1. I managed to find the silver lining in a pretty pricey and unexpected car repair bill. At least we’ll be buying tires two at a time now instead of all four at once. 2. I had an easier time of getting everything on my checklist… Read More September 29, 2015: Three Good Things

Being Productive Can Be Expensive

Today I basically had one thing on my to-do list: take the car in for an oil change and tire rotation and a topping off of all the fluids. And I did it! Cue the dancing girls and the juggling monkey! Only when they came back with the paperwork they started with, “Well, we put… Read More Being Productive Can Be Expensive

September 28, 2015: Three Good Things

Been a while. Let’s do this. 1. I went walking today. The good part was the very sweet pit bull that I met on the trail. She came over and let me skritch her for a minute before padding back to her daddy. 2. For the first time in a while, I had the energy… Read More September 28, 2015: Three Good Things

A Surge In Energy

I’ve noticed something interesting about the past two months that really speaks to the nature of depression. About two months ago, I stopped taking one of my psychiatric medications. The adventure of getting it filled has been a long and well-documented one, but I ran out and through what a comedy of errors only recently… Read More A Surge In Energy

Finally, a Breakthrough

I have written many times in this blog about the ongoing struggle I’m having with finding a psychiatric medication manager. That struggle is almost over. I have checked with my former long-term med manager and she’s willing to see me at a reduced rate since I’d be paying out of pocket. While we work out… Read More Finally, a Breakthrough

What I Did During My Summer Vacation

Faithful followers of this blog might have noticed there’s not really been much to follow over the past six weeks, and well, there’s a reason. Not sure if it’s a valid one, but here goes. Around the beginning of August, roughly around the last time I wrote, I ran out of one of my medications.… Read More What I Did During My Summer Vacation
