...to church? I've been discussing it with God. I used to refer to Him as "The Lord",and I know He is,but saying God sounds even more intimate to me. I only recently became comfortable with God the...

Today, I needed to get out of the house for a while,so I "took the plunge" and decided to brave Sis Shirl's driveway. I was desperate lol! As it turned out,I made it in and out with little...

"Arlene" is here today and as usual,I'm fearful. In truth,I'm somewhat angry with myself because what she said wasn't even bad. It was something I'd blown all out of proportion in my mind. It's...

That,after all,is the meaning of prayer, right? Wish I felt better than OK but it was a difficult weekend. Some people are unhappy and they want to make everyone around them unhappy too. Even as a...

It's later the same day. I wanted to fling Stanley's book across the room,but when I returned from a brief outing,I picked up the book again and this time God did speak to me through it. It was...

One Saturday evening,I decided to watch Charles Stanley because I know he is a good preacher and knows how to hold your attention. I enjoyed it so much that I took out my copy of "The Wonderful...

For the past five years,I've lived in a group home.I didn't move here by choice;my oldest sister,who then had my power of attorney,painfully made the decision because she saw my bipolar illness...

I've always been easily hurt emotionally and quick to take offense. And I'm not alone;most of my family is that way.The difference is that I'm the only Christian,and if I want to sustain a close...

Tonight I'm feeling bad because I shared with some of the female residents about Shirl,as I always say "I love her to pieces but she drives me crazy";but one of the ladies,whom I'll call...

The dichotomy of my life is that I'm a Christian but I'm full of fear,and full of guilt because I know I'm supposed to have faith.What's happening now is that it's after midnight and I'm still awake....

Night before last, I slept very little. I hadn't slept well the previous night either.When I got up yesterday morning,I noticed a tightening feeling in my chest,and my heart and thoughts were both...

Took another 25 mg of Vistaril and still not sleepy. Still very tired. I don't see how I'm going to get anything accomplished tomorrow if I wind up sleeping all day because I can't sleep now. Right...

I feel better now. We just had snack and meds. Something occurred to me today,as I was thinking,I was bored today (and I NEVER say that).I realized that there are absolutely no people here who I feel...

Not a very good day.Was up most of the night.I have plans to go shopping tomorrow,but for today I'll just "crash". Already had my shower. Still having problems with sleep. I wish I could go to sleep...

I had halushki for dinner and I can't tolerate cabbage,I guess.Am sicker than a dog.Maybe I should just tell you why. I had a falling-out with another resident and actually apologized twice, on the...
