  • Legs Burned During Hospital Visit

    Monday, October 6, 2008 | A Venting story

    Monday, October 6, 2008 - 11:35 A.M.
    Somehow, in writing about my trip to the hospital last week, I inadvertently neglected to mention that I sustained some burns on my legs while there.  This was something I was not even aware of until going to bed the night that I returned home.

  • A Bad Day

    Tuesday, February 17, 2009 | A Venting story

  • Of Tough Love and the Enablers

    Wednesday, July 15, 2009 | A Venting story

    Friday, July 31, 2009 - 1:05 PM
    What a week! There has been the usual amount of frustrations and irritations, but I am managing to get through them. I have also had to face up to the fact that I am causing some of my own problems.
    Something has been going on in my life for about a year, or more, that has been causing me an increasing amount of worry and anger. I have kept this a secret from ev...
