"March 23, 2019" 

I already wrote this once and the system did not save it. I'll try again. I have been out of the loop for a few weeks due to illness. I would like thank QueenOwl ~ A New Day Dawns for taking over for me during my absence. I want to share with you what the problem was and perhaps somebody can avoid a similar problem. You see I am one of several million people diagnosed with bi-polar disorder. The medications you treat typical depression and anxiety are counter-indicated with bi-polar disorder. My doctor misdiagnosed me and started me on a medication called buspirone or buspar for anxiety. It resulted in severe chest pains and depression. I am also having a bi-polar mood swing toward the depressed spectrum,like I do every winter. So I have been battling brain chemistry for the past month. Things are improving and I'm following faithfully with my doctors. Fortunately it has not affected school severely and I'm doing good there. We are on spring break so I'm enjoying it.

My church just finished a week of revival. Thus I have gotten in later at night and overslept in the mornings. I usually blog when I wake up. So that is another reason I'm out of the loop. I hope to catch up. College starts again April 1 and I will not be as faithful then because I leave for class at 7:30AM. Until then I hope to do my best.

Prompt: Does your church do revivals?

My church, The Salvation Army Huntington WV Corps, just finished a week long revival where we saw a real move of God. Souls were saved and miracles occurred this week.

"Creation Saturday Prompt: The flower of March are daffodils and jonquils. Write a story or a poem that includes these flowers."

I don't know my flowers. Dandelion and violets are up here as are buttercups.
