    • About Me

      It's been like living in a dream my friend, confidant and mother passed away on 2- 4 08 ..and my life has not been the same..I have lived with my mother since my father passed 1999 We shared a house and my gratest fear that I have lived with every day for the last 10 years was the "fear of lsoing her" she was my entire world..i made a concsious choice to focus in her ..my life was a series of emotinal roller coaster experiences..I will write more..but now I need to be quiet and just feel this emotion

      I try and take care of myself; that's what's making me confused! I thought I was done with these headaches!! They brutalized me for years. Now they're back...it does seem like ibuprofen and cool dark rooms have been my best way yet to beat them, but I get nothing done then, and am so far behind on everything as it is...it figures this would start up again just when I'm starting to get it together! Ah, well, I have two advantages over this foe: I have a doctor incase they get too ferocious, and I have my friends on DS! You are lovely! Thank you for looking in on me! ---girlieB
