Hello, my name is Candee. I am a wife, mother, minister and loyal friend to many. I am also a singer, humbled and truly grateful to my Creator for the gift of song.
This blog, however, is not really about singing songs to a melody but metaphorically singing to the tune of life's experiences.

Here's a bit about me:
I was diagnosed with Bipolar Disorder a little over 10 years ago. I tried to tell anyone who would listen during my teen years that something in my brain wasn't wired right. My parents said I was being dramatic, my siblings got a kick out of me being the family clown, bouncing off the walls. My friends, however, emphatically said: "Oh no girlfriend, you don't FIX that, you RIDE it like the wind!"

......So I did....then....BAM! I ran into what felt like a wall of nails. Suddenly I woke up to a nasty bout of depression that crippled me for a long time.
Due to the right cocktail of meds, I'm relatively back on my feet.
That's just one of three "significant others" in my life; added is my Husband of 28 years and Rheumatoid Arthritis. Ed keeps me grounded when RA and/or BP knocks me to the ground.
Blogging is one way I'll fight the "thorns in my flesh". I'm looking forward to harmonizing with you.
Welcome to the blogging community! I would love to harmonize :-)
