  • I will survive!

    Thursday, March 6, 2008 | A Positive story

    After a lot of tears, a great deal of good advice and comforting from my friends here, as well as some pillow pounding that scared Hecaté, I know that it's time to grow up and act like an adult instead of like a scared little girl. Mostly, I've gotten tired of hearing myself whine, so it's time to break out the cheese!
    So... with apologies to Gloria Gaynor...
    At first I was afra...

    "Amazing Grace, how sweet the sound,

    the hour I first believed.
    Through many dangers, toils and snares...
    we have already come.
    T'was Grace that brought us safe thus far...
    and Grace wil...

  • I'm actually at Pat's house

    Saturday, June 7, 2008

    I'm at Pat's house and it is nearly 5 in the AM. while we are not getting much sleep, at least I am not freaking out as I had a couple of days ago. I am much more optimistic about our being able to live together and love being with Pat as his girlfriend rather than as one of his caregivers.

  • LOOK UP JUST LOOK UP

    THE BUZZARD:
    If you put a buzzard in a pen that is 6 feet by 8 feet and
    it is entirely open at the top, the bird, in spite of its
    ability to fly, will be an absolute prisoner. The reason is
    that a buzzard always begins a flight from the ground with a
    run of 10 to 12 feet. Without space to run, as is its habit,
    it will not even attempt to fly, but will remain a prisoner
    for life in a small jail with no t...

I saw a man with one leg walki...
