Lately I've been sick with constant fever or chills, and as a result, my mood has been terrible.
On Friday, Pete suddenly decided to go away for the weekend, and gave me only a few hours notice that he would be gone. He told me I could come along if I packed in five minutes, but we were out the driveway when I realised I'd forgotten half my medications, so I stayed and spent the afternoon crying.
When I got over the fact that I am stuck with bipolar disorder and all its whims, I took a long, hot bath and started to cheer up, but it wasn't long before I started to freak out again because I started to hear voices again, this time louder than ever.
So I started to watch "Bob's Burgers", which I've only started to like lately. It really helped to cheer me up. While watching, I decided to build different models out of Lego, just to keep myself busy and a little more distracted.
On Saturday I was feeling a lot more productive and a lot less haunted, so I cleaned the whole house from top to bottom, read book after book, and even got backing into sketching a little bit. I half-wrote some book and game reviews when I was in a better mood too, and even exercised properly and took up studying for my diploma. I awarded myself with my favourite Lego model: the plane!
Sunday has been pretty much a repeat of Saturday, except I ramped up my exercise and did more cooking, but for some reason I have been so low on energy. I get my bloods back on Thursday, which should answer a few questions. I can't wait to be healthy again.
Despite being sick, if you were to exclude Friday, this has been one of the best weekends! I was more than a little indulgent. And there is 1L of soy ice cream missing, which might have something to do with it...
