Hmmm I think that would be my cat. I have a soft fur bathrobe but my cat is softer.

I tend to earn gift cards on swagbucks and use those to buy books for my kindle. Before the pandemic I used the library more. Now I only use the library for the audiobook I always have in the car. That is a quick in and out instead of being in there looking while nobody but me is masked.

Winter and no. The only birthday party I had as a kid was pretty much snowed out and only 2 people came. It was pathetic.

Snowed all day though I think it only added up to 2 or 3 inches.

I think the TV ones do (I only see TV at my mom's house so not every day and not that often on a "local" (I live in a rural area without a local station).
We get our best upfront, honest reports from a team of volunteer/retired weather people who operate on Facebook. Right now we are projected to get a lot of snow. Up to 10" I think. Even they say it's still a little bit too early. Is the beauty of snow worth the inconvenience? __________________ Bipolar 1, PTSD, GAD, OCD.

I think so, especially if your local area does a good job of plowing roads. I grew up in a state (NJ) that has four distinct seasons. I would miss that if I lived in a place without them. The one thing I prefer in Czech Republic is that the summers don't get as humid and unbearably hot as NJ summers. However, NJ tends to have more blue sky days than in Czech Republic. I don't mind rainy days, but grey gloomy skies without rain can be depressing. What do you like to do on a nice rainy day? __________________ Dx: Bipolar type 1 Psych Medications: * Tegretol XR (carbamazepine ER) 800 mg * Lamictal (lamotrigine) 150 mg * Seroquel XR (quetiapine ER) 600 mg I also take meds for blood pressure, cholesterol, and tachycardia. |

Read, stay inside and recline with my red furry blanket and read. I’m not at all fond of grey days for end on end.

Sounds lovely, but I don't recall such a ride. The closest was a horse pulled hay ride during the Halloween and apple picking season. I've also been on a horse drawn carriage ride through a lovely park in Ireland, near Killarney.

I used to move constantly. I’d just up and leave all my stuff behind. I moved to New Mexico with no job, no housing , just looked at maps, wanted somewhere warmer but not Texas, California or Florida. Got on the bus with a backpack and a suitcase. Met some of the nices people though.

A: Yes, unfortunately -- I guess it was June 2020, I was homeless for about two weeks living out of my car. I found a place to live and a job. I was away from home until about October 2020. It was an awful experience but it was better than the scenario I was living. I hated being in that predicament but it was what it was.

Yes. I worked with someone one summer and we looked enough alike to confuse some people occasionally.

Drink water. Only thing I could come up with, but yeah, I'm pretty good at keeping myself hydrated. Was actually told to drink less water because during a prior hospitalization they tracked my fluid intake/output and one day put out 8L. But I have diabetes insipidus from lithium so that explains that.

I've only seen one episode of House but I did like it.
Honestly I sometimes think I need a House Dr and that my pcp probably feels like House sometimes. I think my pdoc actually IS a House though.
