I work in Sales and Marketing @Blueberrybook - I go into the candle shop once a week to Raleigh, take care of the store and teach candle making classes whenever I am there. During the week, I do back end things for her through Walmart.com for her products. I live an hour away so it can be challenging. I also work in an accounting office in my town a couple of days a week too - mostly freelance, all my jobs are freelance - I enjoy the freedom of being a 1099 worker.

The one other day I go to Raleigh, I drive around like a mad woman on Wednesday with everything else I do, lol. I am glad things are evening out with my boyfriend - we came to a resolution. Bipolar is hard, my mood swings give me whiplash, sometimes for him too lol. Being in recovery is hard too - because on top of my crazy bipolar was crazy alcoholism too. I added a HUGE drinking problem to my bipolar problem - I think about how I am even alive and functioning right now - must be God, honestly.

Glad you have friends too, even if they are far away. I still have a couple of friends still in New York. Friends are so important, my ex-husband didn't let me keep any of those friendships, and I resented him for that so much. Now, I maintain as many friendships as I can and keep them close.

@HALLIEBETH87 you're in my prayers I know that's a lot to go through.

Hey there @bizi !! Good to see you around again!
