  • trapped

    Friday, April 18, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    i have never shared this thought/feeling with anyone.  let me start by saying i know i'm immensley lucky to have survived and i am very thankful.  but, sometimes i have an overwhelming feeling of being trapped.  i get this feeling because i'm in a body that is almost entirely bereft of any real quality.  this is going to sound narcissistic, but its true, my mind is sti...

    The surgery is over. It's 8/pm and we just got home a little bit ago. Shelley isn't feeling well at all. This was very painful surgery for her. The surgeon said she was going to be very uncomfortable for a while. He made a larger than usual incision because she is a big girl. He had to go deep to find the nodes and when he found the one he was looking for it was HUGE. He said he didn'...

  • I HAVE SOMETHING TO VENT ABOUT!!

    Monday, July 21, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    I AM SEEING RED AT THE MOMENT. A DEAR FRIEND ON DS HAS BEEN ATTACKED BY A BUNCH OF VIGILANTES WHO THINK THEY KNOW IT ALL. I AM LIVID!! I GUESS THIS IS SOMETHING WE SHOULD EXPECT ON SUCH A PUBLIC SITE AS DS, BUT IT STILL INFURIATES ME WHEN PEOPLE CAN'T MIND THEIR OWN BUSINESS. WHAT IS WRITTEN IN YOUR OWN JOURNAL BELONGS TO YOU. I FEEL WE ARE FREE TO SAY WHATEVER WE WANT TO SAY. IF SOMEONE DOES...

  • TOO MANY IRONS IN THE FIRE~~~~~

    Thursday, July 31, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    HI FRIENDS...I MISS DS ALOT. I HAVE READ JOURNALS TONIGHT SO THAT I COULD CATCH UP A LITTLE. I AM ENJOYING MY GRANDSON SO MUCH. I LEAVE ON SUNDAY MORNING AND ALREADY I AM SAD. HE HAS GROWN AND CHANGED SO MUCH IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS. IT'S UNBELIEVABLE HOW MUCH THEY CAN DO AT THIS AGE. HE TURNED 21 MONTHS LAST SATURDAY. IT SEEMS LIKE ONLY YESTERDAY THAT I WAS ANXIOUSLY AWAITING HIS BIRTH. JUST ...

  • ORGANIZING............

    Monday, August 18, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    I HAVE BEEN KEEPING MYSELF BUSY TODAY PAYING BILLS AND ORGANIZING MY DESK. I CAN'T SEEM TO GET MY LIFE ORGANIZED SO I GUESS I WILL TRY TO MAKE SOME SORT OF "ORDER" OUT OF THIS DESK. I STILL DON'T KNOW WHY I CAN'T SEEM TO KEEP THIS PAPER WORK SORTED, FILED, AND CLEANED OFF THIS DESK. EVERY TIME I THINK I AM GOING TO WIN THE BATTLE, I LOOK AT IT AND IT'S THE SAME AS IT WAS...

    SHELLEY IS STILL IN THE HOSPITAL...THEY STILL DO NOT KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH HER. THEY ASSUME IT'S AN INFECTION THAT ISN'T SHOWING UP ON THE TESTS, BUT ALOT OF THE TESTS AREN'T BACK YET. THE ONCOLOGIST SAYS SHE WILL HAVE TO STAY THERE UNTIL THEY HAVE SOMETHING DEFINITIVE. I SPENT THE AFTERNOON WITH HER TO KEEP HER SPIRITS UP. I HAVE BEEN GOING EVERY OTHER DAY BECAUSE OF THE DISTANC...

  • SO........NOTHING NEW

    Thursday, August 21, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    I can't believe that the whole team of doctors can't come to a conclusion as to what is wrong with Shelley. They took the IV out and took away the antibiotics today. She will most likely come home tomorrow with the same problem she went in with...add to that a yeast infection plus one in her mouth as well due to the strong antibiotics. I spent the day with her today to get her mind off ev...

  • Trying to get through life a day at a time

    Sunday, December 14, 2008 | A Frustrating story

    I am at Shelley's for a couple of days. She has been having so much to deal with and I thought I would come here and have some "girl time" with her. She had a melt down yesterday because everything came crashing down on her. She has no money at all since Jeff isn't working. They still haven't been able to sell the truck so he is still living at my house. It has been very dif...

  • NOT HAPPY

    Sunday, May 24, 2009 | A Frustrating story

    SO...........I'M HOME. I am not happy about what I saw when I got to my house. Some of the workmanship was a joke. I just cannot believe my contractor allowed it. Right now he is on my poop list and I have sent him a list of things that I expect to be corrected. I guess he was there today so he must have gotten my e mail last night. I left without seeing him because I couldn't deal with o...
