As with most things I do when I’m stable, I’m totally rocking my Smart Car Quest—walking to the Y, saving all my errands for one trip, eating at home, keeping a list of things I want in order to delay gratification. And just as I hoped, the Universe is conspiring to assist. Yesterday, a friend offered to let me use a spare phone she just happens to have on her service plan. She may also have a little job for me keeping a website up to date. And as I promised, I’m staying open and accepting of the gifts coming my way. With gratitude.
It feels so good to take back some control over my life. Even if this is as fleeting as my mood, a few days of determining my own destiny helps me remember that being bipolar doesn’t have to equal being helpless. Or alone.
Here’s a shot of my front door, where I stick all things inspirational. Bruce is still coming to me in my dreams. And I’ve added my own version of the typical work safety sign. I’m aiming to put that puppy into the double digits. Because…
I’m on an Adventure.

Where do you think I learned how to do this, Obi Wan?

“We are plain quiet folk and have no use for adventures. Nasty disturbing uncomfortable things! Make you late for dinner!” said Bilbo. Heh heh. I like your door, too.

Can’t keep those troublesome dwarves out of one’s pantry, though!
