  • Still Shaky w/ Abstinence

    Sunday, April 6, 2008

    I know what I'm doing is not good for my body? Why haven't I been able to stop? My emotions don't seem to be the culprit. Getting obsessed over the tiniest things seems to be a trigger. Shopping is a trigger. I have to be more aware of negative self talk. It could be as little as "I am taking too long completing this goal". Actually, that's a very common comment I make t...

  • 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 ...

    Friday, December 5, 2008

    Hi, I am so I don't know how to put it in words.  I don't know what to expect or what to do  about this fibro and lupus diagnose.  I feel so bad because my boys are finally at the age where I can really do things with them and half the time I don't feel good.  I don't know I guess I just need to learn to live with this awful stuff.  Thanks for reading.&nbs...

  • OSCAR

    Wednesday, July 2, 2008 | A Painful story

    Last night I had to rush Oscar to the animal hospital. The Dr. there said that it looks like he has a brain tumor. There is a tiny chance it may only be a liver infection (Build up of uric acid can cause similar symptoms..) but she doubts that it is. She is almost certain it is a tumor. I spent most of last night crying, and now have a huge headache. I doubt I will be on much over the next few da...

  • Feeling a bit down today

    Friday, May 16, 2008 | A Sad story

    Well... I don't think I will ever complain about DS and the people on it ever again. Compared to the way some people behaved on another site over an innocent posting of mine, the people here behave like angels. All I ever did was ask if there was any other vegetarians or vegans on the site. Before I knew it the post was being trashed, and I was being ridiculed. For all the problems I ever saw...

    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...
