Moment of Death

Monday, 8 September 2008 12:11 P GMT-06
There was a program on the National Geographic channel's Explorer that was about Death. Their research and interviews with scientist, doctors, and people who had near-death experiences indicated that there was something after death. But their mai

Wasn't so bad

Tuesday, 2 September 2008 3:22 P GMT-06
Neurologist appointment this morning. Wasn't so bad, actually. I had kept a migraine diary since our last visit and brought it to the appointment. He loved that - yet was disappointed at the number of migraines I've had (26 in 6 months). So a

Mr. Horse's thoughts on the Matter

Friday, 29 August 2008 10:22 P GMT-06
Migraine extended into Thursday night and Friday morning. Woke up early morning with an ice pick stabbing in my left eye. No triptans, so took what I could find (Tylenol p.m., ativan) but it didn't help. By 6:30 a.m. I knew I wasn't going to

Migraine Fairy

Thursday, 28 August 2008 12:02 P GMT-06
The migraine fairy visited me last night. I felt it coming on late afternoon and by 8pm the sharp stabbing pain started on one side of my head. With the neurologist visit Tuesday and only 1 imitrex tablet for migraines left until then...I didn't

Laziness

Wednesday, 27 August 2008 2:25 P GMT-06
My dog fits right into my lifestyle. This is what I'd rather be doing most of the time. I'm feeling anxious about my neurologist appointment Tuesday. It's been 6 months since I was last there and he made me sign a freakin' contract (o

Thirteen Drops of Wine

...supposedly how much is left in an empty bottle.Just when I think there's nothing left - I find that little bit of hope, adventure, or excitement waiting for me to experience. It may not seem much at the time, but those things that hardly

Accidental or Deliberate?

Friday, 22 August 2008 12:59 P GMT-06
Perhaps I should be concerned about all of my mishaps lately. The last thing has really got me thinking...I went by my parent's house Tuesday morning before going to a seminar downtown - which I was already running late for. Mom and Dad live up o

Doing what I do

Monday, 18 August 2008 6:02 P GMT-06
At my age, I should be settled in my career and not attempting the ladder climb. I've had career goals and ambitions and they've transpired fairly easy. However, my current place of employment is abundant with office politics and boys' cl

Lakehouse memories

Tuesday, 12 August 2008 12:00 A GMT-06
When I was a teen, we had a lakehouse that we spent nearly every weekend (and I even spent a few school days there!) The house was not much more than small cabin with outdated floors and walls. The boathouse and pier scared the crap out of me. I

Log broke, dog choked, that's the end of my knock-knock joke.

Sunday, 10 August 2008 7:25 A GMT-06
When I was about ten, we lived on about a 3.5 acre place that had a stream run through it. I had a swingset that was half way to the stream from our house. My mom would always send my sister and me outside for the day when she had cleaning to do. She

Battle of my selves

Friday, 1 August 2008 3:36 P GMT-06
It's been hard to share myself lately. I'm battling a horrendous fight between my inner enlightenment-seeking self and my outter ego-satisfying self. The enlightenment seeker knows that whatever I perceive as reality, is. And to transcend it,

Letting go through dreams

Thursday, 24 July 2008 8:31 A GMT-06
I've had more dreams than usual, lately. They are so vivid, colorful, and it's like I'm aware that I'm dreaming. Last night's was about letting go. I've had these type of dreams for about 10 years or more. In them, my late hus

Warhol & a Red Blanket

Wednesday, 23 July 2008 2:05 P GMT-06
The dream was very colorful and full of personalities. I have to say that I never really knew much about Andy Warhol or his art/film – except what was publicly popular. And even then, I never really gave it a second thought. Until last night&he

Bruised and Stressed

Thursday, 17 July 2008 11:53 A GMT-06
I'm bruised from neck to toe. Big ugly bruises too, and some cuts & scabs. Eww, I know. But I have gotten so darn clumsy lately (and I swear that's all it is.) I fall up the stairs, down the stairs, holes in the yard the dogs dug, bump in

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
