    About Me

    *******I AM SORRY I CANNOT ACCEPT ANY NEW FRIENDS RIGHT NOW, MY PAIN AND LIMITED TIME WILL NOT ALLOW IT, I TRULY AM SORRY******God grant me the serentity to accept the things I cannot change, Courage to change the things I can, And the Wisdom to know the difference, ~~~~~Thank you~~~~~~~

    Interests

    ~~~~~~~I am interested in animals and them letting me be their owners, honestly mine own me.I really am not foolish enough to think I own them. I have read all of The Dog Whisperers" Books.I know what to do, the dogs know what to do.They know who the leader is, hehehe and its not me.No they are good when they have to be or want to be.Like my kids when they were little at someone elses house or when company was over or we were out.Now Cats, they always do what they want or what will get them what they want, current count, 4 full grown, 1 about a yr, 2 10 weeks. I would have lots more of both.I have the money, I have the room, enough acreage for many more.I have two things stopping me.The biggest is my physical limitations.The 2nd is hubby.He thinks there should be a limit.I can't expect him to take care of them all when he is so good to me on every other level.IF I was physically able to take care of them I would have a No kill shelter for Dogs/Cats and any other animals that humans so carelessly abuse and neglect.That is the thing that makes me the angriest in this life.Animal abuse and neglect.Look at how much damage man has done to this earth in the short time we have been here, its disgusting.Humans are the only species who abuse their young.We are supposed to be the smartest, ha far from it.I prefer animals to most people I know.You should not have to ask why??~~~~~~~~~

    • Close Back Pain

      I had my back surgery April 30th 07,Back is sometimes better,sometimes not.With the current dose of meds,it is liveable.But I don't drive with what I take anymore.I won't.I won't risk someone else's life by driving.I have developed in the last yr now RSD/CRPS whch one is decided by what DR you talk to,they all call it something diff.It makes sciatic nerve pain seem easy,and I know that is not.

When I have Insurance, they may find out,Trying to stay strong and positive.

    • Open Migraine Headaches

      I have suffered from migraines my entire adult life,since I was 21.I have tried every medication and participated in a 3 yr study when I was about 30.I never was able to identify a trigger and never have had anything stop them.When I get one,I have to take meds and sleepor I end up in ER. I was on Topamax for 3-4 months. It did make a difference but it was expensive. The company that makes did give it to me for free for a yr so I am back on it.I hear they will stop after Menopause.Yay!!!
