Kelly,
When I'm manic nothing seems impossible, I can do anything I put my mind to. (this is usually remodeling/redecorating the house in my case). Very little sleep but you don't feel tired. Every cupboard and closet in my house is reorganized. HOPEFULLY I don't crash in the middle of these projects because if I do, none of them are going to be finished.
I kind of go around in circles a bit (your mind is racing). For example when take everything out of the Linen closet in the bathroom, I have to take everything out of the one downstairs, and the kitchen drawers as well (everything has to be matched up). Logically, now when I am not manic I realize that it's a better idea to start with one closet or cupboard and complete it then move on to the next. When I'm manic, the livingroom, kitchen, and dining room become staging areas so I can see everything and sort easily. Common sense does not really apply when you're manic.
