  • Consequences

    Friday, March 14, 2008 | A Positive story

    Well!  Here it is!  In 12.5 hours, I will be surrendering myself to the Collin County Jail for the next 48 hours.  I'm scared.  But I'm grateful.  To explain quickly, I was on probation and had a second offense in a different county.  The original county put sanctions on my probation so it would still be deferred in October.  One of my sanction...

He said he wants to see a ct scan of my pancreas and the last  ct scan done in June to check out. So I got a ct scan schedule on tuesday. He says we went 6 years with no cancer so we are looking for more time ...

  • Healthy Relationships = Positive Support

    Monday, April 14, 2008 | A Positive story

    I spent this weekend doing; a lot of praying, reading, even more research, and trying to set some healthy boundaries in my relationships.   Easy for me to say!  I had to let go of some people that I care about.  Not even sure if they have noticed yet.  And that is my biggest fear realized.  Letting go?  What the @#$& is that?  And further more "letting ...

    Wednesday, June 4, 2008 | A Positive story

    READ THIS VERY SLOWLY... IT'S PRETTY PROFOUND.
    Too many people put off something that brings them joy just because they haven't thought about it, don't have it on their schedule, didn't know it was coming or are too rigid to depart from their routine.
    I got to thinking one day about all those people on the Titanic who passed up dessert at dinner that fateful night in an effort to cu...

    Monday, April 6, 2009 | A Positive story

     
    So, as most of you know (I think?), Mala (littlemiss) came all the way from the UK to stay with me for ten days here in sunny (and windy, currently!) California!   In the beginning, I was really nervous about it, anxious about the day when Mala finally came.  My hubby drove me down to Los Angeles airport (about 1.5 hours south of my town), where we picked her up, and of cours...
