Hi, my name is Gracie St. John and I've been blogging here for over 7 years now. I talk about my life, my kids and my interests, my passions and my difficulties. Some days it's a little ditty from my heart. Other times it's a tirade on something I'm blowing steam over.
I guess I should tell you about something significant about myself. I have sever Bipolar Disorder Type 1 and I cycle through my different states rapidly. I talk about it, but not all the time... heh. You never know what might happen.
In any case, why don't you visit now an again? I'd love to see you here. Drop me a note. And as always, I'll try to keep it interesting.

"Passion is the source for finding the ability to overcome deterrents." I have a headache this morning. Kyle wouldn't get up till it was like 2 minutes till we had to go. He...
I’m frustrated today. I finalized a letter to publishers for the Baby Book…. I’ve lost it. I thought it was on the computer (this one), but no luck. Now I have to do...
How come no one told Palin not to talk in meaningless circles? Instead of saying “uh” or some other filler when she’s thinking of something to say she goes on...
Today I tried to get Kyle and Sydney caught up on lessons they hadn't mastered. Oh man. Here he told me he was doing just fine. Come to find out mom has been bad and not kept...
I went for a walk with my son this morning (and grandpa's dog) and now I can hardly walk. The muscles are burning. I walked two days ago and was really sore but nothing like...
My dad is an ass. He treats me with no respect. I'm trying to stand up to him but he's very overwhelming. I told him last night I'd drop Kyle off for band at 10:05 and at his...
Ok, so this was four years ago but it feels like yesterday. The reason I thought of it was I came across some thing I'd written her while I was cleaning up my hard drive. It was...
