Ok, I’m all caught up.
Today I had my oil painting class. Ehh it turned out passable. Not a roaring success but passable. The different styles were fantastic. People they really know how to turn a general instruction into a variety of individual styles. The lone gentleman, was quite good. I really liked what he did. Very unique. The lady next to me was very cubist. It really was eye opening how the same picture and the same instructions could be so wildly interpreted. The 5 hours went by so quickly. Then when I left it was snowing and at the same time the sun was shining! Brrr 🥶 it’s so cold today. Subzero temperatures windchill. I’m now in my chair under a blanket with a poncho my daughter gave me, drinking hot chocolate. Brrr 🥶 It’s nice being old, I don’t worry about things the way I used to. Even ten years ago I would have worried how bad my art was instead of just enjoying it and marveling on the different interpretations. I would have been constantly comparing and finding myself wanting. And feeling insecure and intimidated. Instead I enjoyed myself and chatted with those nearest me. __________________ Nammu …Beyond a wholesome discipline, be gentle with yourself.

I’m completely over flu and pneumonia. My muscular strength and respiratory strength aren’t there yet. It takes very little to tire me or get me out of breath. For you who know me, I do so much better when I stay productive and active. I’m slipping into a depression. Could be that or cutting out Lithium and Vraylar or both factors. Going to get a good night’s sleep tonight and hopefully start fresh tomorrow.
I made plans to meet daughter in Gatlinburg in mid April and meeting for breakfast next Sunday. This weather is crazy - up and down and sideways and whatnot. I hope everybody has a peaceful evening. Much love

I'm still doing well. This morning I am having a mammogram. *Cross fingers* Results in a week. I've got my annual apartment inspection in a week. I've been cleaning and straightening up. I forgot to not wear deodorant to my mammogram this morning but they had towelettes so I could remove it.
Sorry I've been MIA again. I really need to catch up. I think I'll go drop my old leftover Haldol at the pharmacy for them to dispose of. __________________ Wellbutrin XL 300 mg Loxapine 50mg Ingrezza 80 mg Ativan .5 mg 2x/day Propranolol 20 mg 2x/day Mania (December 2023) Mixed episode/Hypomania (September 2023) Depression, Anxiety and Intrusive thoughts (September 2021) Depression & Psychosis (July/August 2021) Mania (April/May 2019) |

I agree. Getting older has many advantages. Something I do notice, though, is that far too many older people carelessly become mean. When we stop caring how we treat others it seems to me that life becomes rather meaningless. __________________ |
