     Hi everyone!!! I have sooooooooo missed you all. San Diego was fantastic. It was exactly what we needed to clear our minds and heart.,and recharge our batteries.

  • I have to have a goal

    Monday, October 6, 2008 | A Happy story

    Seems silly to work on something I will never use but I like school and have been working on this part-time since 1992! It is too painful to think of letting it go.
    11/18/08 I managed to get out 4 papers for school this week. I was amazed at myself. Seems like my mind is finally functioning back at normal speed, so far I have one C+ (I was devastated but forgot to answer some discussion ques...

  • All things considered

    Saturday, November 8, 2008 | A Happy story

So I am wired and hope I will be able to sneak in a nap at some point. I hope you all have a wonderful day with your families and friends, and remember to raise a glass and...

    If you're an animal lover, this is a story for you!
    The neighborhood that I live in is full of pet lovers, and almost everyone has pets. Plus, most of the neighbors know everyone's pets by name. It's a great situation for us animal lovers.
    Last Wednesday, one of the neighbors was greeted by a dog that appeared from nowhere. No one knew him. He seemed to be friendly, and his fur a...
