Took me a year to finish it, for once I changed from super-woman to couch-potato, it was really hard to finish it. Well I did, and it is still standing! For me it is shopping that is the biggest problem when I get into hypomania. On net as well. Maxed out a creditcard two years ago, still payoing that off. Somehow I find it scary that that is an extention of myself, because it is not like me to do things like that. Normally I am a very frugal person, so over-spending is the opposite of my normal self. As well as carpentry!!!

Love that you wrote about making that bed. In a hypo state a few months ago I tore down a wall in my kitchen and took off all cabinet doors to refinish them. I now have no doors, a torn down wall, and no motivation to finish the job! No doors makes it so easy to put dishes away and to find things though!
