The Foster House

As many as you know, I have bipolar disorder. I was first put on Abilfy, but it made me manic as hell. Then my doctor put me on Lamictal 25mg. After a month of that I am up to 50mg. I can't really tell whether or not it is working, mostly because I have sunk pretty hard into a depression. The past week has been pretty awful, I came very close to committing myself. The deep dark hole you find yourself in is not easyt to climb out of. I have noticed an increase in delf medication..aka drinking....

Sorry I have been away...holidays ya know

Anyway. Christmas 2013 was a HIT!. Christmas eve was spent with the inlaws. We exchanged gifts, had a great dinner, drank wine and just hung out. It was a lot of fun. Christmas morning was AWESOME. Gabriel was so excited to get all of his gifts from Santa, and like we thought, the Nabi 2 was the favorite. He couldn't wait to beat the crap out of that cat from the My Tom app. Emilia actually responded w...

So I decided to do another video today. I have talked to many of my fellow mental illness sufferers and half of the problem is lacking in acceptance and understanding from others. People seem to think we are lazy or could snap right out of a manic or depressive episode. That is just untrue. So, here is the video I uploaded to help others know we are not alone and I have heard it all before. Enjoy!  

So I got froggy and did it again...this time Catherine Zeta Jones. Frankly, it seems similar to my Jennifer Lawrence but they have similar facial structure...So I will forgive myself. Hope you like it. 

So I was feeling a bit down yesterday and decided to do some more makeup therepy....who's next...yeah Jennifer Lawrence. I love her movies and she is such a unique looking person. It took a hell of a lot of contouring to acheive that high cheek bone look and well...her eyes are what make her who she is. It was tough to mimic that hooded eye shape. I feel like I did a decent job. I plan to update my makeup collection soon, as most of my makeup is worn out and from the drug store. I really love...

LMAO

Omg. SO I got bored today and decided to break out my makeup and do a transformation...a female to male transformation! Yes...I made myself a dude. It was actually a lot of fun. I have bee considering making a makeup channel, so I figured I would put that out their and let my viewers make the choice on whether it would be worth watching. So here it is. If you are interested in a video on how I did this look or any other makeup tutorials let me know

We had such a wonderful day yesterday. Once Joe got home from work we all got into the Christmas spirit and decorated the house. This year is the first year Gabriel truly understands what Christmas and Santa are, and he was thrilled. 

There is something magical about that moment when you pull out your decorations and put up the tree, but it is a different feeling when you are a parent. When you are a child, yo...

What a great day!

Thanksgiving was such a blast this year, a lot of work, but a blast. The only downside was my Mom was sick and couldn't come, but she at least sent over some food to help. We had my famous turkey, garlic mashed potatoes, gravy, green bean casserole, homemade cranberry sauce, stuffing, yams, rolls and I made paczkis! For anyone who doesn't know what those are...yanno those jelly donuts everyone eats on Fat Tuesday? Yeah, those. ...
