BP Town----Open to anyone who rides the roller coaster
 

WELCOME TO BP TOWN
population: 1 and growing

In another thread the topic of pulling together as a group of people with BP rather than fighting with the feelings of being alone in all this was brought up. So since we can't do that in the real world, I thought I would open up a town for us here. Anyone can live here, just have to be willing to have patience, love, and tolerance for all who are here.

Please feel free to discuss your concerns, day, ups, downs, and all arounds.

I look forward to hearing from each of you...................

Well, I'm not diagnosed bipolar - yet - :rof . But, if that's the criteria, I'd love to be a resident of this town! :e058:
Especially if there's no taxes!!! :bounce

Shalom!

I woke quite well, with a good attitude
And in one small move
my nose is diving

hubs is crippled in his back (and has major depressive disorder and a few more)
when he announced he was back to bed,
my great optimism went a bit dead.
Tears hid behind my eyes,
Jenna, I know loneliness, that's no lie.
This pattern I have seen before,
it will go on a week or more.
I'll observe quiet, no cleaning machines,
laundry, vacuum, any startle will disturb
I'll stay out of that room, tho' that was my plan,
to regain the order, that just two weeks ago I had.
the tales we told of a normal life,
wound, sometimes, like a knife.
I had to make a room of my own
where it's normal for me to be alone.
It suffered the maelstrom when we split,
I'll go to make order and embellishment.
Thrift, of that, I can make a game
to shop for dinner, wife is my name.
But I told him I was a flower
And he was my stem
Thus I wither about the edges
And know the weakness of my pledges.
If my complaint does seem lame,
remember tomorrow it will be the same

My excuses tale

Friends! I cannot get dressed,
my clothes are in the room with hubs blessed.
I cannot set last night's bean pot out
We've neighbors who'd talk, of that I've no doubt.
The dishes, whose number add to less than dice
Would ruin my nail's lovely artifice.
That room I said I love so dear,
In truth, I can't even get near
From the doorway I pounce like a limber dame
to make it from opening to bedframe.
The vacuum, well, it is broke
It belches out dirty smoke.
Hubs calls out that he is hot
But damn, I'm sure not the kind I want!

:)

My thought for the day.

Things must be looking up; I've found my sense of humor again. It's nice to be on the way back from the low of the coaster ride.

Welcome Barb........There's even fish in that little river but watch out for the racoons as they will steal your food when you turn you back. Hope you don't mind hearing a couple of beagles howling every now and then as they like trying to catch the racoons since they stole a bag of their kibble.

The sunsets are beautiful. I bet our resident photographer, shutterbug, is going to get some beautiful relaxing pictures from there.

Feel free to join in and voice you thoughts, concerns, joys, sorrows, laughter, etc.....

nandm 03-11-2008 02:54 PM

Ok, fresh baked chocolate chip cookies with heath bar bits in them at my house. Come and get them. But be warned they are made with whole wheat flour and backing splenda. But I like them...lol

Got the front door open, sun is shining, weather is nice, although somewhat cloudy and probably will rain.

BP town weather report for March 12
 
Today's weather is fair and sunny with a few high floating fluffy clouds on the horizon. That one over there looks kind of like an elephant with wings.
High temp 75 degrees
Low temp 70 degrees
Light breeze flowing from the west, right across that field of flowers, bringing with it a wonderful fresh smell.

The birds are out and singing. A couple of cats chasing blue jays, who are pestering the cats for getting too close to their nests.

A couple of dogs chasing their tales. A couple more playing ball with those kids over there.

Looks like a wonderful day here.

Hope everyone enjoys it.

ooooh, Judith, thank you for all those wonderful visuals!!! Today is the first day out of my funk...Yay! I have been in transition..Have to leave the beautifuol place I have been for four years by the end of april.. Its been a love-hate relationship here, very noisy, serious fossil fuels but my apt is beautiful...but its time to go...trying to pace myself so my PTSD dosen't get trigged...not concerned about my bp going wonky as long as I dn't over do it...biggest challenge is staying positive and bringing to me that quiet sunny(sads) place.....
