Hello my dear friends..
Catarac surgery went well.. It is amazing what they can do!
My sister is here, so I get to go out more, which means I am way
behind in DS. She also uses my computer for her business, etc, which of course means there is more limitation for me.
I am having a good time! I actually walked to the eye doctor's office the day after surgery for follow-up. ...1 Recommendation3 Comments -

I came across some photos of "The Road Trip."
I was just a little manic. Spent around $10k.
We drove to the Arctic Circle.
Thank God we were sober.
It's been eight years ago now. I don't know if you can still just drive into Alaska up there. I have no idea where my buddy Matt is now. I assume he's still sober. Maybe I'll track him down.&nbs... -

When I am in the dark, the real dark, not the scare yourself, something may be there dark, the real dark.
When there are piercings in yourself that take your breath away that come and go like a spark.
When the spinning wheel in my mind goes off it's spindle; and rolls ribbons of visions into a pile,
there and there another thought not extinguished by the meds, just foggy in the trial.

"I Will Be There for You"
When I lost faith
You believed in me
When I stumbled
You were right there
For every act of love you've done
I owe you one
There were hard times
I know I survived
Just because you stayed by my side
With all I have, with all I ama
I promise you all my life
Whenever the road is too long
Whenever the wind is too strong
Wherever the journey may lead to
I will be there for you

"Pieces"
I'm here again
A thousand miles away from you
A broken mess, just scattered pieces of who I am
I tried so hard
Thought I could do this on my own
I've lost so much along the way
Then I'll see your face
I know I'm finally yours
I find everything I thought I lost before
You call my name
I come to you in pieces
So you can make me whole
I've come undone
But you make sense of w...1 Recommendation3 Comments -

Emotions take over and its no longer me
Its that woman again the one I don't want to be.
The one that is weak and sheds many a tear
Always has a worry, always has a fear.
The one that causes drama and causes all the stress
The one that makes the simple things nothing but a mess.
That woman that does all the things she does not mean
The one who cant see things as they need to be seen.

"Call The Man"
A great and powerful song... I just love it so much.
Call The Man
Close the door
Shut the world away
All the fight's gone from this wounded heart
Across the floor
Dreams and shadows play
Like wind blown refugees
Call the man
Who deals in love beyond repair
He can heal the world
Of hearts in need of care
Shine a light ahead
When the next step is unclear
Call the man

Back to school blues?
Maybe, but
It's more than fatigue:
The calendar is beckoning
Time is running out
Allergies are niggling
Food is tasteless but insidious
Clothes are too tight
Family is a burden
Never to be shrugged
Feet are blocks in concrete
And hands are traitors
And even that which
"Knits up the raveled sleeve of care"
Fails to be
"Gentle."
