    Saturday, April 5, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    I had extensive work done on my car 2 months ago by a friend of my sister. He has a maintenance garage. One of the things he claimed to have changed was the timing belt and water pump. Yesterday my car quit next to a garage so I coasted in and they looked at it today and the bad news is it has a broken timing belt and needs a new water pump. The mechanic tells me they are the originals and have n...

    Well, this is my first journal entry on this site.  I'm not sur eexactly how this works...and how often I will write...but I thought I would give it a try.

  • Pride

    Tuesday, July 29, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    When I was in high school, one of my greatest joys was playing football.  On our helmets, just below the falcon head logo was the word "PRIDE".  That single word used to be a driving force for me in my early adult years.  Ih fact, I used to give my poor mother grief when she gave me a birthday, christmas, valentine, etc. care and the word PRIDE was not somewhere in the pr...

    Saturday, November 15, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    Missed my best friend's birthday bec. I was so drugged up. He didn't take it personally cos he was also around me when Hele showed up and I didn't remember inviting her over. We, friends and I, are all geared up for the surgery. Mom is coming up, too. No one knows except everyone here. I met two new dogs today-a black lab and a black pit. The pit bull was really laid back and the lab ...

  • About Yesterday

    Thursday, April 30, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    Well, first of all, when my daughter came home from school (she is only 4 and in special ed) her first words were, "Mommie, I don't want you to die!"
    She begged to come with me to my urology appointment. I felt so bad for her and tried to explain that I'm not going to die, I'm just sick and the doctors will make me better.
    Then at the urologist, I had to wait from 12:30-2:30.....
