Greetings From A Squiggly Mind
Just some very random ruminations from the depths of my squiggly mind……..
What is a mental illness? “According to Mayo Clinic Mental illness, also called mental health disorders, refers to a wide range of mental health conditions — disorders that affect your mood, thinking and behavior. Examples of mental illness include depression, anxiety disorders, schizophrenia, eating disorders and addictive behaviors”. My diagnoses and definitions: #1 Bipolar Disorder-1... Continue Reading →
Gawd but the desire to journey New and old places call to me History, hustle Buildings and fields People so unlike me and mine People so much the same I’ve seen many things yet it will never be enough The need to run, walk To seek sights unseen To breathe in air never breathed To...

Wow. It's been almost two months since I've written anything. I guess I haven't had much of interest to write about. So today I go back to the topic I always obsess over: weight loss. Or lack thereof. As you all know, I'm a fat, middle-aged diabetic. No, fat isn't a bad word so let's... Continue Reading →

Seems that everything I start (and don't finish) comes with my best intentions. This blog, for instance. I wanted... Continue Reading →
Yup. Again. I guess it's not technically new. But it's new for 2018. Does that count? First of all, I quit smoking. It's been eight days since I've had a cigarette. Most people would probably say "I'm quitting" this early on, but I refuse to. I quit. End of story. I'm not picking them back up. ... Continue Reading →
