It's been a long while since I've put anything up here. I don't know if anyone even reads it any more. But it's one way of putting things up once and not having to do it again. Maybe.

I've not been on over the weekend, and part of that was because I was being nice to my mother and letting her supposedly work on her school stuff (she was actually ( Read more... )

My mom is doing better. After taking some advice, I've gotten the URL for the Texas Medical Review Board...and the woman I talked to said there was no rush on making the report. Since there's no permanent damage to Mom, a lawyer wouldn't see a case ( Read more... )

I'm not feeling at all well. That's partly what comes of crying for two and a half hours, I think. And I'm probably going to pay for it for at least several days. And the odds are, I'll probably wind up having crying jags periodically for a while. Kinda funny, I guess...you can hurt me and I won't cry in front of you...not bruises, cuts, broken ( Read more... )

I just found out that someone very dear to me is in the burn unit in Lubbock. Lubbock is 5 hours away. And Jesse is like my big brother. He's always been there, especially when I was in junior high and high school. We went to church together and his stepfather hated him and was mean to him...so he was always at our house, helping with something or ( Read more... )

You know, I get very tired of the nightmares. And lately I've been having a lot of them, whether I'm trying to sleep during the day (when I can usually avoid them) or during the night (when I normally have the worst ( Read more... )

I suppose I should explain a bit about what's going on in my life at the moment. Those whom I know read this thing care (and have said they care) so I won't prevaricate or pass things off...for right now. I don't like talking about being sick or feeling bad. To me, most of the time it strikes me as whining and self-pity (or very close to it) and I ( Read more... )

The birthday brownies were good. Really good.

But today I'm not doing so well. I've been sick a lot and my sleeping has been...erratic, to say the least. I wanted to be able to go see Naomi, my nurse practitioner, but it seems Mike and my Mom are conspiring against me. They supposedly know we have a tight budget...but yesterday they spent $300 ( Read more... )

So, I'm home. And I have crawled into my bed and will soon pull the covers up to my chin, after putting the laptop back on the nightstand.

Things went well, instead of badly as I feared. Mike did all right, though there were a few touchy moments getting him back out of the pool and later into the van. I also got a lot of funny looks for making ( Read more... )
