LOL

I'm not sorry I asked. I'm glad that you are being up beat about it. How is stuff with the VA going?

Well, FutzLady, you sound as if you're in better spirits than awhile back! That's great! I hope that things steady out for you and stay that way for as long as possible! Going to hospital is fine if you need it, but it's better that you don't. Now, of course, living in Texas could be considered as living in a mental hospital, with the patients running it as they do. Now, I know it's a secret, and I promise not to tell anyone else if you won't. But everybody outside Texas knows Texas is different, they just don't know the real reason. But you and I do. Take care now, and I know who to write if those bedbugs show up here in Florida.

Oh the beasties are in Florida already. I pray no one gets them though. An unexpected ali about Texas though. You got it dead on. You know just yesterday when Obama was in Dallas, one of the motorcade motorcycle police could not even stay on his motorcycle - wiped out and the motorcade was going about 15 miles an hour. And he was one that was suppose to protect the prez! I am feeling a lot better...especially since I have decided to move near family in March. I could go for some IRL mutual support from carefully chosen family members. Reviewed my journals and found that over the past five years, most of the bad stuff in my life has been tied to the county mental health organization. One time I was moving from a shared co-op to my own apartment. The caseworker was suppose to help me with the boxes. Two didn't make it. What was in them? Family and military photo albums, my military awards, letters to from family when I was in the service, every picture of the love of my life I ever owned. No help!

I am sorry that you lost your pictures and awards that is awful. Why are you waiting until March to move? (Just curious)

Because I want to be financially prepared as well as fulfilling my obligations here so my move will be as stress free as possible. I do not do sudden moves well. Stress increases the chance of a manic eppisode no matter how well my meds work. I take a trip out there in Nov for my nephews wedding and to tie up paperwork. Have my apartment picked out already. If I need medical care the VA hospital is only 20 minutes away. Spiritually I am getting a strong universal vibe that Vegas is where I am needed. It is time to say goodbye Austin, hello family.
