On days like this -- in this case the one before classes start -- I know my thought pattern is my biggest enemy...but I don't know what to do about it.I have a hard time focusing on now, so of course...

I have Microsoft Office on my laptop, so as I lined up my books, notebooks, and so on for the start of my classes on Tuesday I put my schedule together so I could get an idea of what I'm up...

I speak bird.  Well, okay, I speak bird only to the extent of the pet cockatiel in my house.  But today I was her best friend.This bird peeps a lot when she needs something.  Sometimes she needs...

Picking up the pieces with a week to go before fall classes start:*  I'm starting to notice why I'm so quiet on the boards for the most part...usually I don't know what to say.  But it's also...

Today was one of those lucky-as-can-be days.  We didn't take a direct hit from what is now Tropical Storm Irene, but the wind is still blowing fairly strong and we got a great deal of rain.  I'm...

I'm back from my doctor's appointment now.  He did agree that I should back on citalopram, it looks like 20mg once a day.  Really not sure how long I'm going to need it for.This isn't the best out...

As I type this I'm about to go to the doctor's office for a check of my thyroid levels (I'm on medication for that).With the way I've been feeling about myself lately -- goal cleared this week or not...

Today I just feel frustrated because I haven't been able to get to what I've wanted to do, at least so far.The cause this time is the refrigerator/freezer at home.  It's acting up.  The fridge is...

This is just amazing, what this site has done for me.  I wasn't planning on writing this now, but I really should let it out before I forget.The last few days, I've had some really immense help from...
