by AristotleI removed the previous entry. Ever since I put it up - half as a joke and somewhere deep inside, truthful - my heart has been heavy. I apologize for being quick to post and not to think.Good week with migraines. However, I've constant

Do not leave burning candles unattended...

Yes - I learned the hard, but could-have-been-worse way. Hubby and I have our little "zen spot" under our deck in the back. We have chairs, a stereo (his idea - I'd rather listen to nature), and some torches. The torches were empty so I

Suspended Vacation

Saturday, 31 May 2008 7:46 A GMT-06
This week was my vacation from work. I knew last Friday that things were not going to go as planned, and entertained the thought of working the week instead of taking it off. But once home, I changed my mind. Let me explain:The Friday of my friend

Gerbil bit my thumb

Friday, 23 May 2008 11:35 A GMT-06
Jerry the Gerbil got out of his cage last night. Not sure how, but he was scurrying down the hall when hubby saw & grabbed him. I've been getting him out in the mornings and petting on him, so I thought I'd take him from hubby and calm hi

Human Suffering

Wednesday, 14 May 2008 12:20 P GMT-06
It's interesting to note that one of the world's most ancient philosophies says there are only five reasons why humans suffer: not knowing who we are, identifying with our ego or self-image, clinging to the transient and unreal, recoiling in

This week has/is a whirlwind. Monday, I worked late to publish a report on our Web page. I came in late Tuesday to make up the OT from Monday and left a little early to pick up my rental car and pack up to drive to Atlanta. I made a few stops before

Monster frogs & ex-pigs

Thursday, 1 May 2008 8:41 A GMT-06
Woke up this morning from a dream that was pretty crazy. We have a koi pond in front of the house and the pump quit, so lately it's gotten very murky looking. It's also occupied by millions of tiny tadpoles and four Koi. In the dream, the tad

Sleep deprived & sick

Tuesday, 29 April 2008 12:46 P GMT-06
I don't know what's going around (cold/flu, etc.) but I've had it. I've been to my family doc three times, ER once, and a Gastroenterologist once. I don't want to go through all the symptoms I've had, but let me just say that

Fits of Gloom

Friday, 11 April 2008 9:15 A GMT-06
Today - a gloomy day. Storms are brewing and so is my mood. I don't think I slept well last night and certainly didn't want to wake up. This week has been a trying week for hubby and me. Our 9 year old son has pushed his limits with us.

Keeping the peace

Thursday, 3 April 2008 10:04 A GMT-06
Today I have a small headache, which is no surprise. The Spring is always tough on me with all the pollen triggering sinus headaches and eventually migraines. I made a trip to the doctor Monday for a good ole steroid shot and some decongestants, but

The Arms of Sorrow

The Paths We Choose

Sunday, 23 March 2008 1:51 P GMT-06
As I lay stretched out on the bed this morning - thinking random things, my eyes fell upon this book on our bookshelf by Sully Erna: "The Paths We Choose".  I thought about the things that have weighed me down over the last couple week

Pins are out of Wrist!!

Monday, 3 March 2008 2:20 P GMT-06
Friday was the surgery to remove the hardware from my wrist. I suppose I was a bit more nervous than I wanted to admit because my blood pressure was 151/100 - which is highly unusual for me. After I was situated and waiting to go to the ER, the nurse

My friend and I have a list...not quite the "bucket list" but similiar in that it's a list of things we want to do someday. I wouldn't say it's things to do and see before dying, but more like a list of crazy fun things to do th

I've found a new favorite snack...Pita chips! My friend, K, gave me a few snack size bags when she quit work and cleaned out her desk. Ever since then, it's been my mission to find and hoard every bag I can. I'm munching on a bag of cinna

Nothing new

It's hard typing one-handed and I'm used to typing about 70 wpm, so this has frustrated me to no end. Which is why I haven't blogged and avoid lengthy emails. I have to look at the keys and then re-read what I've typed. I really don&#

Pins in broken wrist

Thursday, 31 January 2008 10:06 A GMT-06
Went to orthopedic doctor yesterday to get a post-op check up. They x-rayed my wrist again and said it was healing good. I will have the pins removed in 4 weeks and another temp cast put on for an additional week or so. While they had my cast off yes

I'm looking forward to 2/1/08. I'm hoping February is going to be a much happier month. So much has happened so far this year, it's enough to last for the next 11 months!Friday, 1/25/08, my father-in-law passed away. During the time that

Surgery & Day 15

Friday, 18 January 2008 5:27 P GMT-06
I had wrist surgery yesterday. Had to have 2 pins put in to hold the two bones in my arm/wrist together. Naturally, I woke up with a migraine and was ready to puke by the time I got to the surgery center. Fortunately, I didn't have to wait long b

Dad has been the hospital for ten days now. Saturday around noon, Dad quit breathing in the hospital and they intubated him and moved him to ICU. He's been in ICU under heavy sedation since then. He hasn't woke up since in there, though the d

Mom, Dad, & the dog

Friday, 4 January 2008 10:25 A GMT-06
Yesterday wasn't one of the best days this week. I got to work and began being really nauseated. Ended up making a run for the restroom...barely making it in time. I thought I'd feel better after that, but didn't. By 11:00 a.m. I left wor
