I’ve been dealing with a heck of a lot of insomnia lately, and I’m really getting tired of it (nice play on words, huh?)
At 4am, you’d think I’d be tired. I was earlier, but I guess I missed that window of opportunity because I had to finish my project. (which I did do!) [...]

I’m so lucky with the friends I have. I really am!
I was feeling pretty down when I woke up this morning. Crappy news and extreme heat this afternoon made me feel even worse. It was just a hard day. But, I swallowed my pride and told a few of my friends [...]

You really do need to experience the crap life delivers to recognize the beauty when it passes by.
I’m feeling much better today — and believing that everything in life happens because that is just the way it happens. I don’t know what life holds for me, but I do know that I can personally [...]

I’m confused lonely frustrated tired sad feeling a little sick, still. Why is it that every time I get stressed, my stomach goes into convulsions? Why do I have to feel sorry for myself, every time something doesn’t go my way? Why is this current situation feeling so wrong? Why do [...]

A week ago… everything was looking *so* awesome. I was counting down the days until I got to spend time with Chris again (cuddles!!), I was looking forward to my quickly approaching cruise, I was allowing myself to dream, again… I was very happy, all-in-all.
And then, in a heartbeat it seemed, it all came [...]

I had an awesome night tonight. Ed, Deetria, Vern and I started off with a few drinks and appetizers at Milestones. We laughed ourselves completely silly there, so much so that we actually thought we’d be kicked out from the amount of silliness we were exuding from our table.
We all enjoyed yacking about [...]

Please, someone smack me.
It is Sunday afternoon, and what am I doing? Let’s see… I went out for brunch with Vern (okay, that’s an acceptable Sunday activity), and then dutifully did the grocery shopping at Costco with him. It’s not like we had food in the house, or I would have put it [...]

Hmmm… So you want to hear about the rest of my adventure, hunting and gathering my new laptop do you? It started when I got up at 5am (after 1.25 hours sleep) and picked up Dee, who was entirely too cheerful at that hour I might add.
We drove alllllll the way down to Mt [...]

I’m finally feeling better. Okay, at least I was until I looked at the Dell shipment tracking system this afternoon.
Guess where my laptop is? Get this… WASHINGTON STATE. What is *with* that?? I had called into Dell on the 13th as they were packing it up and asked them if they [...]

I’m not having a great day, today. I can’t sleep. I’ve got too much on my mind.
I’m sick — which doesn’t help. I’ve got the flu and that’s made me feel quite ill over the past couple of days. Apparently, it’s going around. Hopefully it’s just the fact that I’m [...]

I have a *new* baby on the way. Now, Dad, don’t have a heart attack! It’s not what you think! ((GRIN)) I ordered a brand, stinkin’ new Dell laptop today. Woohooooo! It’s SWEEEEEEET! (Cartman would be proud of that impression, trust me). If you want to see [...]

Yippeee! Woohooooo! I’m sooo excited, AGAIN! LOL!!
I booked a cruise today! I figure that I should give myself two weeks vacation time each year to get away from things… so I’m off to grab Chris on September 7th to enjoy a week of sun and relaxation aboard the mighty Carnival Conquest! [...]
