Ok, so we are trying something new here. I am tired of trying to entertain myself at work and need something too keep me from pounding my head on the desk in shear frustration of not having ANYTHING to do!

So weird this last evening was. So...I talked to Carl, who had talked to the phone company as well as I had. I was told the net would disconnect within a day or two since the phone was off already. He was told the net wasn't due for a disconnect as of yet. I wonder why two different people told us two different things. Kinda irritates me. Who's really right? After I get home from therapy,...

I found out today that the puppy will be born the end of the month, so it will be a little while, I can't wait. I made a sweater and hat for it. I went to the deals store and I saw this nice looking black , I thought pruse, it was a pruse to carry your dog in. I bought it , it was only 3.00 dollars.

Not as much as I would like to have lost this week, but I'm happy I'm losing. I am walking and go to the pool for exercise. I feel so much better when I exercise. You would think that would be motivation enough. Oh well, I'm doing it and it's getting to be a benficial habit. This week I plan to write down what I eat and how I feel when I eat.&nb...1 Recommendation -

Yesterday was horrible. My "husband" is given so much money each month and I only get paid once a month as well. Well, he spent all his money before I got paid and blames it primarily on the fact that I was broke and he had to spend all his money on me. And I NEVER ask for things. He always wants to eat out and I'm like I'm fine eating a $1 frozen pi...

Chapter 3 Shootin’ Fish in a Barrel
The fall of 1989 the Berlin Wall came down, and I picked up a fishing rod again for the first time in 9 years – what I hoped would mark two remarkable events in my lifetime. That September morning I woke up with a craving to get out of Northern Virginia. I grabbed my boyfriend,...1 Recommendation4 Comments -

We need friends
We need each other...
In times of private pain,
of fear and stress;
We need each other...
to share our joys,
our times of happiness;
We need each other...
to hold on and be strong, and
encourage when things are going wrong;
We need each other...
to keep the faith and love,
and remind each other of all
the things we're dreaming of;
We need each other... now and

In Your Mother's Eyes/Angels
by RandyTravis (see the video/song on YouTube)
Me and some of the boys
Were sitting around the other night
Started talking about politics, religion
Love of life
And what a shame it was about 9-11
And what about Hell
And what about heaven
And is there or isn't there
Angels here on earth
And then one guy said
Well, you can take that for what it's worth

This is a Poem that Chronicles my life, so it might be a bit long. ( You have to remember, I am 39 years old).
I CRY!
When I was a child and I first realized that my mother and father was my world.
I CRY!
When I married for the first time.
I CRY!
When My daughter was born five weeks early and I had to leave her in the hospital.
I CRY!
When I brought My daughter home from the hospital happy and healthy.

These are poems I wrote, each one is spaced by lines. In memory of Papa.
It seems like just yesterday,
We were sitting around laughing,
And now your gone,
I do realize it was time,
Its been along time coming,
Now thankfully you are at peace,
No more in and out of doctors offices,
And hospitals,
No more tests,
Or needles,
Now you can rest,
Rest in peace.

a journey that takes us down many roads.
Some good and some not so good.
But as we travel we learn,grow, and meet
people that make those journies all worth the travel.
Those kind of people in a way are like
Angels.
With them we find comfort in the arms of our
Angels.
Friends come and go,
and from each one we learn more aboout our selves.
We see our weakness are strengths

Forgiveness
The key to forgiveness lies sometimes buried,
Amongst ruins and fire in our hearts,
We seem to hold on to the hurt that's been caused,
With chains that will not tear apart.
How easy it seems to never let go,
Of the memories that smolder within,
Preventing the growth and forgiveness inside,
While our brewing continues in sin.
Such a battle it seems, to forgive one's deeds,
And rid our ...1 Recommendation1 Comment
