Guided by prompts from WDC blogging challenges... and of course, life

HI! I'm Jenn - and I'm all over the place (well, at least my mind is). In this blog, I have attempted to gather my thoughts on things prompted/inspired by WDC blogging challenges from "Journalistic Intentions"

, "The Soundtrack of Your Life"

, "Blogging Circle of Friends "

, "30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS"

and, well, LIFE.

Nothing to worry about... It was just the ghost of Jerry Lee Lewis passing by.

Glad you're OK.

That's the truth! I always seem to find ways of putting myself right where there is possibility of exactly that, but somehow usually manage to stay safe and unharmed. Someone greater than me is looking out for me, of that I am certain.

In response to "What Goes Up Must Come Down"

Hey, My heart goes out to you. I can relate. I'm Bipolar also. They diagnosed me as manic-depressive years ago, but it still took years for a diagnosis. I'm doing much better these days, but still have my highs and lows. The combination of Lexapro and Abilify has been the greatest help. I've tried a lot of different medication combos, and I have to say that just adding Abilify has helped me greatly!

My furbabies are everything to me. They're always near. I have two terrier-mix little girls. I wouldn't even want to think of what life would be like without them. They may be dogs, but they're good for hugs, cuddling, and talking to. They've been with me through thick and thin.

You're so right, they are definitely perceptive. They know when you need extra attention, and they know when to keep an eye out for you. They are definitely a blessing from God.

If you ever need to talk or just rant, feel free to write me.

I hope you're feeling better.

Thanks for reading and understanding, it means a lot. And I agree, my fur-boys are definitely gifts from God too!

LeJenD, you're not by yourself. I've battled depression in cycles throughout my life so far. I think in some ways, it's hereditary. As an adult, I have become convinced, that my Mom had undiagnosed Bipolar Disorder. When she was feeling "good," she'd take my brother and me to "the big town" to play all day. When she was feeling "bad," I had my hands full counseling her for hours. Who knew that wasn't a teenager's job?

Poetry has become such a balm for my soul. The depression is still there, but it seems to bring some level of relief when I put my feelings down in a poem. Amazingly enough, some of my best poetry has been written when I was depressed. The Lord has graciously given me the gift of poetry.

BTW, dogs are quite perceptive animals. Mine is lying on the floor near me as I write. I think she's a gift from God, too.

2/12/22 - Billy Joel - You May Be Right

2/12/22

Waiting until this evening to put down my soundtrack for the day. If I had made my entry this morning, the song would have been depressing. After a full day, my spirits picked up and I am now able to give you all a better entry, one more fitting to my mindset last year, as well as this one. I won't be giving you guys any facts on this song. It is special to me because of what the lyrics say. After I was first diagnosed with Bipolar 1 this song somehow found its way back to me again. I felt it was almost my theme song. That it was saying what I wanted the world to know, what I wanted the people I love to hear. Yeah. I may be crazy, but I'm a loveable kind of crazy, don't ya know.

"You may be right
I may be crazy
Oh, but it just may be a lunatic you're looking for
It's too late to fight
It's too late to change me
You may be wrong for all I know
But you may be right"

Happy listening.
