it would be nice to have some! we are pathetically broke and scrabbling. i know some of it is our own doing to a certain extent but a lot of crap has happened concurrently with our being broke and that thin cushion we had has evaporated like mist and we are down to the nothingness. paycheck to paycheck and it is so hard. at least we have a paycheck ( Read more... )

Again I fell off the earth and have only just started to make my way back. Maybe I'll be better about it this time. So much crap has gone on. I can't even fathom putting it in words....just suffice it to say that this year has sucked the big one and I am ready to leave it behind.

Woke up Tuesday morning with this god-awful burning, nausea pain and then proceeded to spend the next 10 hours or so vomiting violently. What that got me was extreme soreness and a fear of most food. I had fever, chills and was very thirsty ( Read more... )
