what in the world happened to Lola?
where have i been and what have i been doing?
I have been absent, from my blog, my mind and my life for a period of time now, but i am happy to report that i am back on track now, albeit a different track than i was on before.
my new track involves a new diagnosis - bipolar II disorder,
a 3 week rebirthing process, in a mental health facility,
a marriage separation,
shared care of my children,
and the inception of a beautiful new friendship.
I will admit, it has been a bumpy ride and there have been many ups and downs in the last 8 weeks, it has not always gone to plan. I have learnt that once a chapter is written, it can not be unwritten, that sometimes you just have to end the chapter, and move on to the next one, start a fresh and just keep writing because things can and will improve.
I am becoming a master of my own destiny, i want to write a happy story, one filled with adventures and journey's and light and love.
My new chapter starts here:
Stick around if you want to find out what happens next...

exposed...(not a photographic post)
vulnerable
and clinical again.
my mind works me into crazy places
i can feel the black waves coming again
and this time
it is my fault
i put myself there.
i feel like i am standing, naked, shivering, in the dark, yet everyone can see.
they don't point
they just watch me drown...

1 month
It's been one month.
My little princess has been a kindergarten- er for 1 month.
This evening I took the opportunity to have a quick flick back through those important
first day of school photo's I* captured.
Goodness me, we have come a long way in 4 weeks.
4 weeks ago - she could write her name, that was about it , a little bit of copying words, but more out of enthusiasm than anything else.
NOW, she can spell words out on a page using nearly every letter in the alphabet,
can add items that are illustrated on a page, and can read 8 sight words,
I, DAD, MUM, LITTLE, BIG, HERE, A & IS!!!
She is excited and enthusiastic about reading her home readers each night and is already bringing home library books and "reading" them.
I am a proud mummy!!
The night before, she had her uniform and backpack ready to go.
Ready to leave, little brother just as excited as she was.
At nanny and poppy's, getting a bit nervous
