Getting to know each other


I'd like to get to know you better. Even if you've commented before or if you've never commented before, please take a moment to write a little about yourself.

I'm Cristina, also known as Bipolar Chica, and I'm 34. I have brown hair and eyes and I'm opinionated if you have figured that out yet!

I'm a stay at home mom who has two children ages 2 and 5 and a husband. LOL We live in Texas. I spend most of my days entertaining my kids by taking them to story time and swimming in our pool. I spend the other half of my day trying my best to get the word out about Bipolar Disorder.

Now I want to hear about you. What are your traits? What are you passionate about? Where can you be found? Are you on Facebook, Twitter or do you have a Blog?

I can't wait to get to know you better!

    I'm Sheri, I'm on Twitter (Acrimonia) on Facebook (I think it's under sheriw1223-I'm new at this), and I have a blog http://realityhideseek.blogspot.com/. I've been disabled for about 20 yrs from PTSD & Bipolar 1 Disorder. I have two amazing daughters. One is 18 and lives at home, one is 22 and has a wonderful husband, an adorable son, and one on the way. I am a domestic violence survivor and am very passionate about DV advocacy. I'm a chocoholic and love to read.

    Wiki describes Captain Woodrow Call of Lonesome Dove in the following words: "Captain Call, is a workaholic taskmaster who hides in his work, emotionally cut off. He is afraid "to admit he's human,". He is hypercompetent at his work to compensate for his complete failure at human relationships. He is cold and driven by pride and honor, not love. He is the Western version of Captain Ahab whose reckless stubbornness ends in tragedy."

    Yep, that about says it all.
