Well, it's not going to kill you

Suddenly it all makes sense sort of

I take a number of drugs to keep me relatively sane, two of them are Clonazepam and Celexa.

Both have a number of side effects too numerous to list.  Stay with me here I have a point it's just going to take time to get to it.  Turns out side effects of BOTH these drugs is shaking and one includes instability.  That one  explains why I'm constantly tripping over my own feet and convinced I'm going to take a header down Dr. Sanity's front steps, all 19 of them.

Now on to the point.  Friends and Dr. Sanity are constantly asking about my shaking some days it's a mere quiver others I shake so badly I can't put on my mascara.  Today I finally had the good sense to look up the side effects of both drugs - hey it only took me 3 years.

So that explains why I shake now just to find out why I shake some days and not others.

Words to Remember

WORD FOR THE DAY Saturday, Feb. 12 How far you go in life depends on your being tender with the young, compassionate with the aged, sympathetic with the striving, and tolerant of the weak and strong. Because someday in your life you will have been all of these. George Washington Carver Yes I'm waxing philosophical again.  With all that's going on in the world these days, good and bad, struck me as words to really pay attention to. It wouldn't be a bad idea if this quote spread around the world for everyone to cut out and paste on the first place they look every morning. Ah that's me in the end always the eternal optimist.

 

Thank you Mother Nature

6.5 inches of rain in 3 days.  We like that! You can almost hear the trees sighing.  

Of course the daffodils, the flowering trees and grape vine are getting beat all to hell but I'd rather lots of rain you can always get daffodils, the trees will blossom again and the vines...  well the vines have weathered worse storms than this and still thrived.

Leaps and Bounds people, leaps and bounds

Well it appears that despite what the Republicans said when they ran in 2010, it's not all about jobs.  It's all about abortion.  The first 3 bills they introduced in the new term were all about abortion.

Now Mike Huckabee, I don't believe in evolution, is claiming abortion is akin to slavery WTF?

I don't know your opinion on the issue and I really don't care to.  I only know that the government should not be in the OB office with a woman and her doctor.  It is a very personal and often painful choice that women are forced to face and although it's still VERY LEGAL in this country there is an entire group of people who will willing kill abortion providers and call it justifiable homicide.

GRRRRRRR

Party's On

I decided last night as I was not sleeping yet again that I'm going to throw myself a 5th anniversary party.

Yes 5 years is coming soon, not soon enough but soon and then this burden will be lifted from my shoulders.  I think I deserve a party. Don't you?

So far I've ordered these and these.  NO RIBBONS, I'm so sick of pink ribbons I can hardly stand it.

I also have a few t-shirts in mind for my attire.  I'll give you a chance for input when I narrow it down to 2 or 3.  And I have a hat.  My friend Erin had one knitted for me when I lost my hair, we'll have to see how it looks with hair.

The guest list is already in mind, women only.  Yes guys I love you but this is a woman thing.

I'll keep you posted on the progress.

Those 4 ugly words

Your cancer is back...

NO NOT MINE, THANK HEAVENS.

But Amy Rauch Neilson's.  I stole this from MFAMama because she writes it better than I can.  I can't seem to get the link to Amy's blog so go visit MFAMama who does have a working link.  Amy needs all the support she can get.

 "  I just found a new blog to read, and for the first time EVER subscribed to a blog via e-mail (I'm a feed-reader kind of girl, but it's for a good cause):

Figure One: This lady can write!

   Amy Rauch Neilson is in the process of writing a memoir that promises to be an amazing piece of creative non-fiction, the story of the BRCA gene and its effect on four generations of women in her family. She has an agent, and now she needs a publisher; to get a publisher, she has to prove that she (as the writer of this amazing story--I seriously think this could be the next The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks) has a platform.

   Amy is trying to get 5,000 (the number her agent threw at her) subscribers by March 3rd, which would have been her four-year cancer-free date. Unfortunately, about three weeks ago Amy got the news that her cancer was back, but she wants to get this story out there and I really want to read it, so I subscribed. You should, too! Because that would put Amy one subscriber closer to her goal and give you another awesome blog to read. I told you it was win-win! Just click the artwork (which was done by Amy's neice!) to get to her site and type your e-mail address into the box in the upper-left sidebar. Please?"

Dear Madam

Yes you Mother Nature, attention please.

Much as we love your current gifts

and .  It's supposed to look like this right now. 

It's not even the middle of winter yet.  Yes I know El Nino/La Nina are currently resting off our shores we'd appreciate if you could move them on until winter is over.  Just so you know that's officially March 20th not February 5.

A Loyal Fan

BTW isn't that the coolest picture ever?

Comments

I've been getting weird comments for the last few weeks.  It appears that someone is combing my archives.

It's a bit disconcerting to have someone make a nasty comment about a post from 2008, don't look for it I deleted it.  And then there are several about the same 2009 post that say almost the exact same thin.  It appears that English is not the first language of these commenter's.  I don't know why but it creeps me out.

See this face?

Adorable fuzzy face right?  See those feet? He's working on growing thumbs so he can drive.

Promise me you'll never, ever give him your car keys, he's uninsured.
