I made it through thanksgiving.I was glad to leave mom's house.There were times when I got very shaky.I could feel an explosion building inside of me.I knew if I didn't leave somebody was going to get an earful.1 of my family members made a crack about being bipolar.I heard it but didn't say anything and left.I don't find jokes like that funny because surpise!!! I am bipolar.I have to live this way everyday as we all do who have this horrible thing.I hate hearing the jokes people make because there is nothig funny about being bipolar.I missed my dad being there.It just felt like something was missing which he was.He's only been gone a year.Family get togethers aren't the same anymore.My sister was acting so strange.I really don't know how to explain her.She was talking all kinds of baby talk and she's 46 years old.I don't really know what was up with her but it was getting on my nerves.The food was good though.Believe it or not we had no leftovers except a little turkey.everything else was gone.I'll be happy when the whole holiday season is over and things go back to normal.
