  • what do you want?

    Saturday, March 22, 2008

    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...

  • I HATE MY LIFE!

    Wednesday, May 21, 2008

    Shit! I can't even complain about anything anymore... When I do, I get told that my day isn't that bad? Crap! What do they know! Only I know how I feel! I have been sick for the last 3 days with no relief. It is due to lack of sleep. It has now been 5 days with insufficient or no sleep! How the heck is that good!!!!
    I found out that someone that I had just started to trust, had been lying ...

    Ugh...
    I don't like talking about certain things on the internet, but here goes.
    Ever since he was shot, my husband and I cannot sleep together.  After all the surgeries, and stopping smoking, and him having to sleep with his leg strung up in the air from Dec. 1990 to May 1991, he developed worse snoring, and some sleep myoclonus.  The latter, he nearly...

  • I'm angry

    Tuesday, October 7, 2008

He's completely ignoring my cries for help with a hefty roll of the eye and frustrated sigh. I'm bipolar, I can't help it. I really wish I weren't because I'm pretty sure my life...

    Sunday, February 1, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    I have asked for prayers many times on this board to the point I am sure you are all tired of this and frankly so I am. I am very tired of health issues and life issues. I am having surgery (small minor no big deal) on February the 12. I am not really asking prayer for the surgery. What I am asking prayer for is me. I have never been afraid about my health I have always viewed as one more mountai...
