I’m currently reading The Pilgrimage, Paulo Coelho’s book which paved the way to The Alchemist. This was the last sentence I read, as I was headed to bed last night: “We always know which is the best road to follow, but we follow only the road that we have become accustomed to.” I really, really [...]

Good session with Michelle today. Seems that whenever I most don’t want to go, that’s when I really benefit. This makes me want to go even when I don’t want to go. So, if I were being silly, I could say that when I want to go because I don’t want to go, that’s when [...]

I guess this is what grief is all about. Considering my history, I guess it makes sense that I would discount the grief and assume I was sliding into a depression. I have a lot to grieve for, and I know it’s going to take time. And I know that, like with anything else, if [...]

Thank God for habituated survival instincts. So I dragged myself out of bed this morning–or more like, the pup’s barking dragged me off the couch this morning–at 7:00. Not bad–she slept 5 hours. The world didn’t really look much rosier than it did last night, and it was cold, and all I really wanted to [...]

I’m sure she’s right. It’s not ADD. It is learned patterns of behavior. Practiced patterns. Habituated. My depression and my mania are also habituated and I don’t know how to break the cycle. Too many coincidences make it so easy to fall back on old habits–not so very old habits. Actually only recently set aside [...]

Had a good day, despite evidence to the contrary! Went for a ride this morning. Ended up getting lost (missed my turn-off for the shorter loop), and very far from where I was supposed to be, broke my bike, and nearly ended up walking my bike about 7 miles out of the park! Fortunately, a [...]

It just dawned on me how coincidental the timing of Karen’s call is. It was just during my last session with Michelle that I mentioned in passing an idea about doing doggie socialization stuff, and how I enjoy working with dog people. Hmmm. Ask and ye shall receive? Thanks, HAG.

I have a job! Well, I don’t have it at the moment, but i called Karen back today and she offered me a job doing some dog walking for her as she has enough work to farm out. Apparently, she was waiting to get up with me until she’d sorted out some stuff with her [...]
