A Few Notes on Mood

Fall time can be wonderful in many ways but it can also really mess with my mood. With the sun going down earlier and earlier I find that I need to work especially hard to keep myself on the upbeat. (This includes listening to Kim Petras on repeat!) As someone who struggles with bipolar 1 disorder I am always trying to learn new things to combat my changing mood swings. I find I can go from feeling depressed and to a “normal” mood fairly quickly. (It’s exhausting! Ha ha). My life can sometimes feel like a roller coaster.

I am really goal oriented. If I don’t accomplish my goals for the week, I have to try really hard not to be down on myself. I am trying to juggle several things including work and time with my family…aka Eric, Pickle, and Pepper.

The photo above is a build your own pizza I had the other night. It was delicious! Yes, this is random but I’d like to include photos on my blog posts.

Thank you for reading! -J.P.

A New Beginning…Sort of!

So, this past week my husband and I purchased and moved into a new home in Atlanta, GA. It was quite a stressful move but thankfully we got my piano moved safely! Now we begin unpacking everything and preparing for some renovations. Hopefully, these renovations do not upset our cats too much. Pickle and Pepper are doing pretty well and I’m happy about that.

Pickle was a good boy and helped pack up!

That’s all I want to post about tonight!
