  • Journal Entry for July 9, 2008

    Wednesday, July 9, 2008 | A Venting story

    Well crap, crap, crap.  That's how my day has started.
    Last night I was so tired I went to bed at 7:30 and didn't wake up until nearly 11:30 this 'morning'.  Should have just stayed in bed, really I should have.
    First off I got the coffee going then checked to see where the solar panels were pointing and what our battery level was, need to plug in the freezer since things ...

  • Journal Entry for August 22, 2008

    Friday, August 22, 2008 | A Venting story

    I have been feeling pretty strange lately.  Very, very tired but also apathetic, unfocused, in pain and like my body is literaly coming unhinged.
    My entire upper back is just one sheet of pain, it's like I can feel where each rib is attached and it hurts, back and front.  Then my arms feel like just their weight will pull them out of the sockets and they'll be hanging useless at ...

    You don't hear that too often do you, a call for Monday? My call for Monday began on Saturday morning ... Class Fri. nite went well, actually quite informative and a good instructor. On Saturday morning early, about 7:45 I called my aunt to let her know what time I would be at her place, no answer, ok maybe she's in the shower, 20 minutes later, no answer. Class was starting, I put the na...

    Thursday, March 5, 2009 | A Venting story

    They extended the freezing rain thingy but it has warmed up so now we're getting periods of freezing rain alternating with periods of wet snow.  The end result is everything is covered in ice and slippery so I'm doing as little as possible and the dogs are lucky to get out for a potty walk every four or five hours.
    Dart is not feeling well this morning (or he ate something that upset ...

  • Pain and Anger, do not read if it will be a trigger

    Sunday, March 8, 2009 | A Venting story

    I'm still not doing well being online but at least the firefox is letting me get around and do some posting even if it does have it's own raft of irritations.  
    There was a quote from this weeks study of the Zohar that I had wanted to bring here and talk about but it's been lost in cyber space and I don't want to even think about trying to recreate it, some day but not th...

  • Therapy Interferring Behaviors (DBT contract)

    Friday, June 19, 2009 | A Venting story

    Yesterday I got pissed off at my DBT therapist. You see I made it a point to be there on time and actually came to the center and socialized in the cafe area and spent time drawing pictures. I made it to the apointment early and waited for my apointment. Well, my therapist comes out 20 minutes late to get me to take me back to the counseling rooms. This wasn't the first time she has been late...

    So, as everyone knows Neal has alzheimers and 99% of the time he just sits in his chair and doesn't try to help even if he sees me struggling with something, he might say "you should tell me to help you with that", like I have to tell him before he can actualy get up and move.  Sad thing wiht AD that is pretty much the case. Even if he can think he should do something he often ...
