Jackhammer is laying the flooring in my office today and I am ITCHING to see what it's going to look like all put together.
WOOT! |
At the airport
Got to LAX on time for my flight only to discover that I have an hour delay. It's okay though. I'll still be home with the love of my life this evening!

apparently if it's not breathing, or moving, I am going to eat it today!
lots and lots 'o stress these past few weeks...waiting to hear some results this week as well... better than many other stress responses, I know... tomorrow I may even give in to a donut yearning I have been denying for the past 3 weeks or so... I just found pretzels in my pocket...talk about emotional eating !!! *chuckle* |
For several days now....
what happened a year ago during this week and next is heavily on my mind...weighing on my thoughts and causing a struggle to deal with feelings and grief. Those two weeks made my head spin. Because life has gone by so fast this past year, I haven't had a chance or the appropriate setting to process feelings. My dad's very sudden, painful passing and being reunited with a long-lost brother and his family...*shakes my head* too much to think about, but can't let go. Hurting inside from the loss and hurting from not being able to spend time bonding as a family with my nieces and brother due to living too far from them. Knowing they are all going through a very serious struggle and hardship, but I can't be there for them. Knowing I can not, because of my own limitations and restrictions, go to them at this time. Knowing my nieces need me, ask for me, but all I can do is send them virtual hugs. Knowing both my brother and I did not have a chance to address our dad and get closure on some very hurtful things. No closure, no chance for closure. Not processing grief in an appropriate manner can really catch up with you eventually. And it becomes compounded. I wish life would stand still long enough for me to catch up. The anniversary marked by this week and next just may take its toll. |

(((((Sweet))))) I understand what you are saying. This is my bad time too. Call me if you need a shoulder.

How very greatful I am that I know what I know and work where I work. I knew to get The Boy to the ED immediately and to give him his emergency shot before we even left the house. Even then we spent yesterday trying to recover his blood pressure and keep him from shock. Thanks to my job I knew how ugly this season's flu is, so I didn't pause, hesitate, or pass GO. I came to the place that saved his life the last time. I am so proud of my part in catching this before it became something truely devastating.
Folks, WASH YOUR HANDS. It's the best defense. Tell your kid's to wash their hands. And if they look like they're getting the flu and running a fever don't try to treat it at home! This one is a nasty one. I've seen it take several healthy lives already this season. A |

If, after reading this VERY important message, anyone has any questions or doubts about the flu or feels like "it won't happen to me or my kids"..... check out the M.A.R.T.I.N. Flu Foundation. http://www.martinflufoundation.org/martin/about.cfm When I met the McGowan family in person and heard their story of how they lost Martin to the flu, it really drove it home for me just how important the flu shot is for EVERYONE, especially children. If anyone needs more information (especially about where to get vaccines and free immunizations) look me up; I have a wealth of information on this subject. |
I can't get logged into my classes and I am frustrated beyond belief... I have contacted tech support over and over again only to sit on hold with no end in sight... I knew taking A&P II was going to kick my butt but not this way...
**wanders off to cry out of frustration... |
Fresh out of the shower clean
It's such a wonderful feeling |
My friend Darlene...today was her mother's funeral. Couldn't be there for her (like she was for me) but have been talking by phone.
|
a most intriguing, and rather inspirational conversation about photography is on my mind. yeah. now i KNOW it could easily become a new favorite obsession! indeed! :sunglass: |
One more day closer to the anniversary and I haven't heard ANY return response from my brother. It scares me.
|
Neeee braaaaa sKaaaaaa *in my best southern twang* LOL
|
The tech. Hopefully it turns up next week. I need to work at a desk again, my back, shoulders and neck don't work well from the sofa.
iMac, iMac, wherefore art thou? |
on my mind.
thinking how lovely it would be to run up into the mountains. To just hide in a cabin for a few days, with some good wine, my journal. maybe get dressed up, and venture out for a nice dinner somewhere intimate. or maybe not venture out at all- thinking how some lovely company would be the icing... yeah, dream on girl- it ain't happenin. perhaps i'll just do it anyways, by myself! i'm damn good enuff, and plenty enuff company! lol why the heck not, right? :rrose: |
Just waiting for a call or email from her she is probably still sleeping or taking care of the cat!! that is ill with a bladder infection..oh well I have things to do to occupy me in the meantime..

What is on my mind is how she is? Has anyone heard anything? I am sending her cards, & notes. None have come back to me, but I also have not received a response from her. I am concerned.
Anyone? Anything? |

How best to turn my living room into the ultimate study.

Tall book cases can section off the room and cubicle you in to a private study area. Paint the backside of them to match your living room. |

My truck outside that will not start because apparently my steering wheel is locked and I can't get it to unlock. So I am stuck at home although I am supposed to be at work closing tonight. Beyond pissed off. I don't have money for a cab and no way to get to work, and I'd be lucky to find someone to stay until 10pm to give me a ride home even if I had a ride there. They asked if I was walking to work and when I said no but I'd start, they told me no. Probably best, this isn't the ideal area to be walking in, especially when the drive itself takes 10 minutes with no traffic, 20 with.
No words can express how I feel right this moment. |

It's still doable...for a desk, get an old door and set it on 2 of the bookcases shelves. You can set a file cabinet on either side under that. Limited space doesn't mean you have to be limited on what you can do. Just make the study small and comfy. Some kind of hanging lamp above a desk will give you enough light. The possibilities are endless and you'll still have a partial living room once you figure out what you want and don't want anymore. Just ask yourself how much space you need to make both possibilities a reality. |
How much fun it is to sit around laughing hysterically together. I so love Jeff Dunham!

it seems like my anxiety level is up lately but for very good reasons. Such as, today I discovered my attny whom I hired to represent me for my SSDI appeal, has not sent in requests to my therapist nor 4 of my medical Drs. My court hearing is on the 18th! I walked into his lobby and had a melt down. He actually told me he had 200 clients and there was no way he could keep track of all the files and letters for each client. I was fit to be tied, and bantered back and told him he had too many clients then and he had no right taking 1/3 of my outcome if we won. If he didnt put forth 100% effort, he didnt deserve his full fee. He vowed to call and get the paperwork but at this late date, I doubt it. *I* However, will ask to speak for myself during the trial and address this so that the judge is aware of this, and of the hiuge missing pieces of my medical and mental health records. Honest to God, between this and my Cleveland CLinic mix up yesterday, I am ready for a valium cocktail of some sort!

Singing this all morning since I woke up, walking the pups, in the shower, ...
Don't you give me no bullshit baby, Don't you give me no bullshit baby... all night, give it to you, all night... |
Guess I should get off the couch and go get purty(aka...NOT look like the walking dead)since I have to leave for class in 15minutes.
|
What's on my mind right now...
how to become my own cheerleader, and motivate myself to work on ME! It's time to get off the couch, walk away from the comfort food and start focusing on a healthy lifestyle. I KNOW that I am the only one that can do this for myself! |

That is wrong that I would like to take a (BIG) shotgun to every plastic Santa Claus, Snowman, Reindeer and every Christmas light, every bit of garland and tinsel and Holiday wreaths STILL up on people's houses?
It is MARCH, move on folks! |
Finding out that someone I happen to adore and respect is not as trustworthy as I thought
I'm very private in my personal life unless "I" choose to open up and make it public Tonight my feelings are very hurt after getting over being pissed |
Faith comes and Faith leaves

Whether or not my doc is going to release me this morning...
Visiting my Mom's grave tomorrow on the 4th anniversary of her death. This will be the first time I am able to be there on the actual date. Am going to say Kaddish for her - done this many times but never under these circumstances...it's not going to be easy... Am grateful for the selflessness of a very special friend... |
