Thought of the Week

  • "Having OCD is like being allergic to life - every waking moment is spent in a state of mental hyper-sensitivity.”

Why am I returning to this blog after so long?

During this next year, this blog will "document" Devin's OCD, and the improvements she makes. In no way is this blog meant to make anyone feel sorry for our trials. We know that trials are merely blessings in wolves' clothing. Because any improvements will be minor and subtle as the days go by, I want to write it all down so that I can look back and see how far Devin has come. If you are a first-time reader, I suggest you begin by reading this post. It will give you some background and show you a starting point. Comments are welcome, but please be kind. This is not an easy illness to deal with. We're all just doing the best we can.

Crabby

So our new basement bathroom looks awful right now. "Someone" dropped her black nail polish and it broke and splattered everywhere. Then that someone used polish remover and took paint off the walls everywhere. But it's still black. And the towel and rug are splattered. And the tile and grout in the tile. And the cupboard, with damage where remover was put on it. So it's going to be a clean up Saturday. Well, I guess this will give us a chance to fix the wall that "someone" put holes in with a chair.

Sacrifice. It's worth it, right? To my credit, I didn't get mad. But it just breaks my heart to think about all the work we put into that bathroom, and now it's a mess.
