Bucket O' Bulletz

It stirs itself! Honest. Why would you want it? I don’t know. Novelty value maybe? BUT it is an auto stir coffee mug. I surely would buy it for the fun of having it and being able to talk about it when people come over. Yes I’m a geek and I love gadgets and coffee… Putting the two together just makes it all the better for me

It’s past 2 pm and I haven’t done a whole lot today. I did make pancakes. Want to see what kind and how I did it?

My son had peanut butter and apples yesterday but didn’t finish them so I decided to use them as my pancake filler. I figured that it would be a good combination since I eat them that way anyhow.

This also gave me a good excuse to FINALLY use my brand spanking new blender.

I added the vanilla, egg, salt, baking powder, and such all together in the blender. It came out nice and thick. I was then able to fire up the flat griddle and begin to cook these tasties.

After they were all nice and fluffy I transferred them to a plate and slathered them in Country Crock. MMM. Of course, the only thing left to do after that was to eat them up with syrup and a nice cold glass of strawberry milk.

Now that’s love.

I dunno. We are thinking about trying to drive to Florida, stay in one of those Orlando Rentals for a day or two, and then catch a plane to San Juan. From there, we would have to drive across the entire width of PR to get to Ponce. I don’t really like the idea of all that driving. Maybe it would just be cheaper to hit a direct flight from either Delaware or PA down to PR. I am still checking out prices. Hopefully husby will find a good deal with one of his travel agent buddies and we can get down there for less than it would cost for us to do all that driving ourselves. We have to get a rental car, too, in PR but we already know how to get a discount with that. So much to think about, so little time. We only have another month!!

I am going to compile a list of my triggers and things I notice before I freak out. This really should go on my depression blog, but I would rather do it here then explain on the other blog.

Thursday Thirteen: Triggers

• lack of sleep
• PMS
• too much caffeine
• being sick
• when my husband is agitated, so am I
• the child acting up
• the dog whining
• not eating enough
• transitioning from depression to mania…the hypomania
• having lots to do and not having time to do it
• I have noticed that small things tend to annoy me more during the transition
• I have also noticed that this all can back build till I get to the boiling point
• My self esteem plummets and then here comes the rain.
