I once ordered a $300 direct-marketing kit. It had all the stuff you need to start a business. I even got a business license and called it Wee Five Enterprises. Only trouble was, I didn't have anything to market. Guess I should have thought of that BEFORE I spent the money, which we could ill afford in those days.

Another silly thing I did when hypomanic was buy about 100 plants for my yard. Now, I love gardening, but I have to watch my back and knees because they're full of arthritis and I get sore for days afterwards. Well, I got everything planted---it took me from mid-afternoon till after dark---and on top of that I pressure-washed the patio. For FOUR HOURS.

The next day I could barely walk. But at least the yard looked good. LOL
