About Me

yay 2012

happy new year!!! i can honestly say i have never started a year with such a positive attitude. i am looking forward to this new year and this fresh start.  I got R a 3 month membership to the rec center for Christmas and he started going today.  I have come to the conclusion that a gym membership for me is a waste of money.  the only time of day i can guarantee that i can get to workout is at 5am when R gets home from work.  we have a fitness center at the apartment we will in so when he gets home i will just go down there for an hour or so.  tomorrow is day one.  i am excited to get started.

in other news of me i've decided i want to get off my lithium.  i have been losing important things with zero recolection of ever having them along with other bad side effects that are getting worse not better with time.  i am going to wean off of them slowly and i have an appt with a new doctor in 2 weeks to discuss not only my being bipolar but also my weight and hopfully i can get some help there too. 

oh and i other HUGE news - R's sister is back in our lives again.  she has meant so much to me since i met her but she has had a rough 5 years or so.  she is an amazingly strong person and i am beyond excited to have her and our 2 year old nephew in our lives :)

so there's the update.
