The economy is getting better?? hmmm... This is what I see in my neck of the woods and frankly everywhere I've been in the past couple of years....
Small business is losing out and fading into history, fewer stores for people to spend money at means they have to go where they can get what they need, larger stores that sell it all and the mass majority go to for thier goods. So the larger stores show a better bottom line but its at the cost of the small business...
Such a vicious circle we spread to thin and then have to regroup to the mass build ourselves up just to spread out again. When will we find that perfect balance to sustain our society?


The worst part is that many of these stores are buying their goods from third world countries, not the United States (or Canada) so they aren't even putting their own country to work. So not only are the small businesses closing, but the factories that make the goods to be bought in these stores are also closing. It sucks all the way around.

Wouldn't it be nice if Obama made it a law that at least 1/2 to 3/4 of the merchandise has to be from your own country? Imagine how many people would be working then. Not only that, but more would be buying too.
Why is it so hard to figure that out?

This baby with SMA and her parents, who are blogging her Bucket List.

She's not expected to make her 2nd birthday.

So sad, but I love, absolutely love what her parents are doing to raise awareness of Spinal Muscular Atrophy.

You know, I really enjoy being a loner. I enjoy the quiet solitude of my head. While I like hanging out with friends and can be social with the best of them, I do not require constant company. Also, like my Mother, I don't have many people that are close friends. I don't have anyone, even my one closest friend, that I require or even like to talk to every day. But very, VERY rarely there are days like today. A day that I wish I had that someone that I could just go to, lay my head on their shoulder, feel their arm around me and just get lost in my grief. A friend that would reaffirm what I know, but am having trouble grasping in the moment. That for everything there is a time and a purpose. That patience, while not my friend, can be a companion. That if it's meant to be, it will be. Just to help remind me of my joy, that will return quickly, while I wallow in my despair for the short moment.

*sigh*

Pajara, I loved what you wrote and really related to it, especially this part:

"That patience, while not my friend, can be a companion."

I think patience is stronger for me when I look back and admit that there's a cycle—things went up, went down, went up again, and so on. Yeah, based on what I've already experienced, I can say with some confidence, It gets better—sometimes not as fast as I'd like, but in general, I turn it around. I always called it "resiliency," that ability to outlive the bad parts, but I think it's also a function of "patience." :)

Thanks for your post!

I have an alarm clock that's got to be about 12 years old, and every time I set it I get all paranoid that it won't work. The little Alarm light doesn't always come on when I set the switch, and I can't leave it alone until I can see that it's shining steadily. Then I usually wake up a few minutes before it's due to go off and just watch it until it does, then I wonder, "If I'm waking up this early, anticipating my alarm, am I actually sleeping or is my body ticking away seconds unconsciously until it's sure it'll beat this infernal clock I keep forgetting to replace?"

Sleep is complicated sometimes. A friend said, "Just get an alarm for your phone." Although I've just spent a paragraph describing my distrust of my alarm clock which is so deep that it obviously manifests all the way to the level of subconscious... it's still older than my phone and thus more trustworthy.

I never said I was completely sensible.

Yes Honey, our weekends are definitely wayyyy too short...

i wish i was able to go with you on the 8th...it's killing me that i cannot and my boss will just have to deal with me being completely distracted that day until i hear from you...

Sundays are truly rotten! On the plus side, my new, safer route means i can leave a little later...

i cannot stand the thought of being apart for 2 weeks! We'll have to do what we did the last time...

They're just bad people Honey, just very very bad people and the Universe will deal with them accordingly. Not very comforting, i know but it will...

The image of that accident victim is burned into my brain...i feel horrible for them to be lying there in the highway for who knows how long while the police work the accident scene...i pray the family is never aware of that. i also pray for comfort for their family...

Thinking about Saturday and how difficult it was for Clay...wishing i could have helped more...both angry and sad at what hy lost due to the selfishness, greed, laziness, apathy and dishonesty of "friends"...even though it impacted our time together for the next 2 weeks (among other things) i'd do it all over again to help hym and be there for hym...

How hy transformed a heartbreaking and stressful day into something so beautiful for us...THE conversation we had at Flagler Beach...this weekend further strengthened our commitment to each other...thank you for such an amazing weekend Baby...i love my Sexy Silver Butch!

When is it enough
 
When do you say stop
When do you start living the dream again
When do you forgive
When are you paid in full
When do you open your arms
When

What's on my mind right now.... the list is endless (damn you ADD)

I feel nekkid today because I ran outta the house forgetting to put on my jewelry.

Is the sea of moving boxes multiplying... and where did all this crap come from?!

What's for lunch because my stomach is growling?!

Wishing that the laundry fairy would make a stop at my house today.

WingsOnFire 04-30-2012 11:14 AM

phone conversations with hym in the garden with the dogs playing like the silly pups they are. Smiling ear to ear. Beautiful weather. Happiness.

~~~~~~~~~

Talking with him about life in general. Plans for the week, time set aside for both of them. Undying love and understanding.

Happy girl :waitinggirl:

Flirting and flirtatious behavior. Been weighing the good and the bad, thinking about parameters of flirting and imposed boundaries.When does the flirt become something else, more concrete, an action, an agreement? I guess the question is what is considered flirting? I have a feeling that it is different for different people. Do we come to some type of "agreement" as to the boundaries of flirting? Just musing the concept of flirting.
