I'm having trouble finding a good balance between having fun and doing chores. I thought i was neglecting my chores because i was going out too much and having fun. So i've been staying home and getting things done which i'm really pleased about. But i guess i stayed home TOO much because yesterday at home i was miserable and did not get anything done. Might as well go out and have fun, i figure. So today i headed downtown and had a super fun time, people-watching and shopping the artisans. I went early and the weather was fine but by noon it was sweltering and i was slick with sweat waiting at the bus stop. I was so happy to come home to air conditioning. But i feel happy to have had such a satisfying adventure. I will experiment more with striking the right balance between fun and chores. With my bipolar i have to be constantly adjusting because i have such boundless energy when i'm manic and such puny energy when i'm depressed. It's a balancing act!
