Power of God's love

Another quote from readthescriptures.com. I am including this because of several incidents that happened today, both at home & at work.

"Filled with his love, we can endure pain, quell fear, forgive freely, avoid contention, renew strength, and bless and help others."
--Elder John H Groberg, "The Power of God's Love", November 2004 Ensign pg. 9

Nick was "cycling"  today. No, he didn't go out & bicycle, it was too cold & windy for that. Nick is a rapid cycler.

A cycle is the period of time an individual takes to go through one episode of mania and one of depression (or hypomania and depression).

A person can have bipolar disorder & only cycle once in a lifetime. Nick, however, has bipolar II. He can cycle several times in one day. Sometimes I have a hard time distinguishing between the Asperger's & bipolar, sigh.

Here is just one incident from a day that seemed fraught with "incidents." Nick was fine with me & just a few minutes later, he was "snippy" with Don. Don came back out of Nick's room & sat down at his computer in the front room. I tried to talk to him about the episode with Nick, but he said he was tired of being made to feel stupid. He  just sat at the computer with his head in his hands for a long time.

I am glad that I have two days off & that it is not a week with 2 production days. I don't think I could handle it.
