Another rainy day

Up early 6 am not to bad compared to the past few days. It rained in the night and it's damp out but I can hear the birds it's sounds wonderful. I was out in the sun most of the day yesterday it was great I knew it was going to rain today so I took advantage of it. I'm getting quiet the tan. I just love my life right now I take each day as it comes and try and enjoy it. I had a great sleep last night can't seem to remember my dreams last night which is good because my dreams have a way of affecting my mood. I have the world at my finger tips it's great. My novel is moving right along, I'm happy with my progress on that. My guitar playing relaxes me. My chess games keep my mind occupied as well as my reading. I have quite the routine now it's great. Get my house work done enjoy the smaller things in  life now my frame of mind is very positive.
I don't have the patients for people as much as I used to now since my medication change but my sister says that I'm behaving normally which is good I guess. I don't dwell on things I just am not as patient. My mum's behaviour does bother me when I'm with her. I don't know how to handle it at times. She has no filter anymore at times she is down right rude. She is very opinionated and rude to the point of being mean. There is no need for that behaviour and I don't tolerate it like I did when I was on a strong medication now the dose is lighter I just don't put up with it. I'm not sure how to deal with this. I'm to the point of stopping seeing her because she depresses me if I let it get to me. I try to avoid certain conversations. Mostly we talk about books and music not much else or the children. Her new great grand baby. I try and keep the topic light. I try and stay positive. It's hard sometimes to do that when you suffer from major depression and chronic pain but I think I don't do to bad.
Well I should soon stop writing and start writing on my novel. I have a little bit of direction from my characters. I have a tendency to build my story as I go along. Letting my characters tell the story. I don't usually know where I'm going I just follow them. I don't know if that makes sense or not and I don't know if it's a good way to write but it makes it interesting. Well I'll sign off for now and journal a little later on. I have a busy day today. Laundry, cleaning lots of things to do. I love the way my house is right now. Everything is going smooth. Just be nice to have a little more money not much just a enough that I don't have to worry and it would be nice if it was sooner rather then later. I'm not supposed to hear about my disability pension till August it would be nice if they settle it sooner that's if I get it or not. I should my doctor sent the results of my MRI and it doesn't lie. So it's a waiting game.
