I haven't been here in awhile but I'm baaaaaack....

 

Welp....I admitted I was powerless over bipolar and that my life had become unmanagable.  I came to believe that a power greater than myself could restore me to sanity. Became willing to turn the care of my life over to God as I understand God.

 

And I have.  God told me to apply for disability so I did.  And I got it!  I just need that little piece of paper making it official but the hearing was clear; the vocational expert said there's no work for me.  That was amazing.  So here I am, working only part time, waiting for the papers and that first nice check. 

 

The waiting is hard.  My paranoia strikes deep....into my mind it creeps....something may happen in the interim or whatever; and I shouldn't tell too many people lest they give me shit about it.  But it's my business, and I had to do it, so I did it.  Whoohoo!

 

So now I'm restless and a little crazy; I need to sit down and pray. And read.  I went to an AA meeting and that was good...by the way I celebrate 2 YEARS SOBRIETY today.  Whoohoo!  Good things are happening for me.  I am blessed.....
