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.

Well it’s the day after surgery and I feel some pain, but it isn’t bad. I did take two pain killers so I’d be able to go back to sleep. I guess it hurts more than I...
I try to put my faith in my doctors and trust them to take care of me and help me be fit or get fit. I have done all the exercises, gone to the appointments, had the second...
I don’t think we’ll go to the lake this week. The weather really cooled down. I could probably use the distraction, but maybe it’s for the best. I have a dentist...
I’m scared that this third surgery on my ankle won’t help. I guess I’d just have to learn to bare it. That’s not an easy thing to do. The kids and I will spend...
Barack Obama…. There’s just something about him that I don’t like. I do like the New Yorker’s cartoon depicting Obama and his wife in what I can only describe as,...
