    Thursday, November 20, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    My darling daughter, Stacia, posted my situation. I was woken on Sunday to my body trembling with chill. It quickly escalated to violent tremors that shook the bed and I felt as though I was going to freeze to death, suffering from fever. Stacia piled on the blankets and started the fluids and pain meds while I wreathed in unbearable pain. I had charlie horse pain coursing through my body, from o...

    Saturday, December 13, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    Big suprise...SSDI denied me on the first pass. They said, an I quote, "Your previous work as a supervisor in a call center does not involve phycical tasks. Therefore, disability benefits can not be granted." All my years of working and they take a job I held close to 10 years ago and site it has no physical elements. First of all, in the employment world I would no longer be qualified to work in...

    THIS IS NOT A REVELATIONS JOURNAL
    When do you finally say enough is enough?

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...

  • It's the little things.....

    Tuesday, March 3, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    It's not necessarily the crisis of life that wears us down, it's the little things....
    The trying to make a new and different something to eat, and then no one (including yourself) likes it!
