Wednesday wasn't the best of days, i spoke of my abuse and it had out me in a unhappy mood. After telling my tutor she just basically told me that it's good that i don't bottle things up. She just threw it out like it was trash not caring how i felt.
Thursday i was annoyed, my other tutor is planning a trip next week and i can't come because i have the asthma clinic. Sh...

I've been writing a bunch of poems lately, and I was wondering if anybody else really liked poetry. I'm going to post up my favorite poem, and I challenge y'all to do the same.
The Sick Rose
O' Rose, thou art sick!
That invisible worm
That flies through the night,
In the howling storm,
Has found out thy bed
Of crimson joy:
And his dark secret love
Does thy life destroy

Journal Entry for November 4, 2009
Wednesday, November 4, 2009
I was in English today, and we were supposed to be writing some double journal entry thing about our sources for our Senior Theme (sounds ominous, doesn't it? Senior Theme). The Senior Theme is just a giant research paper, that has to be between 6 and 8 pages long. I had to do my Junior Theme last year, and it failed epically. Anyway, so we were doing the double journal entry, and instead of ...2 Comments -

Well ladies, I went to my consult and doc wants me to do IVF starting next cycle which is around the 20 something of this month. He did an exam,checked uterus, checked ovaries and took blood. I was like, dang he doesn't waste anytime. He said that I am a great candidate for Minimal Stimulation IVF. It's way cheaper 5,500 to be exact. Basically, I have a healthy reproductive system ex...5 Comments -

Corporate/Government Greed fueled Gangster rage
Wednesday, November 4, 2009
The economic conditions have taken a dire turn, with people who have worked their entire lives losing their employment, security and homes. People who have always done what was expected of them and been good citizens are being punished with financial insecurity and threats of dire
consequences. The Great Depression of the 1930's may offer some lessons for government officials and gre...4 Comments -

Its been a while since I have wrote in my journal. I have been having pretty good days. Days where I can get up and do something with my family and not feel sick, until about 2 weeks ago. I am having trouble eating again. I will eat but shortly after I have these small spasims in my abdomen. In these past two week I have dropped 5lbs and am continuing to loose :( I have been feeling scared and we... -

I think I am changing.Instead of feeling lethargic every day/week it is every other week or so. It can be horrible. As it is easing I guess it must be due to less drinking etc and maybe the medication working.I have spoken to my supervisor/line manager about the promotion and told her some of my fears. I have to compile a file of evidence of work I have done and of course I think 'Oh, I ...1 Recommendation -

Last weekend I planted some spinach and some spicey greens. I've never used these planting trays but thought I'd give them a shot with the spinach and mixed greens. I had little sprouts the next day! So cool. The idea with these planting trays is that you can grow a vertical garden.
I love the idea of saving the space and also covering an ugly part of the fence. Anyway, I put the trays in...

Step Families Information
Traditionally, a stepfamily is the family one acquires when a parent enters a new marriage, whether the parent was widowed or divorced. For example, if one's mother dies and one's father marries another woman, the new woman is one's stepmother. Unless one bioparent of a stepchild is deceased, typical nuclear stepfamilies do not live in one house, consisting of three or more parents, biological and otherwise. It's also possible, in a less strict sense, that the new mate chooses the role of full- or part-time caregiver without marital commitment.
In a simple stepfamily, only one stepparent has a prior child or children. Usually this is thought of in terms of minors, but the children of a stepfamily can also be adults. Stepbrothers and stepsisters exist in a blended or complex stepfamily. In any case, any subsequent children fathered through the new marriage are one's half-siblings instead of stepsiblings, being related through one blood line, that of the one biological parent. Having a new child does not change the identity of stepfamily, nor does legal stepchild adoption.
