Hey, just to let you know I have been posting photos in the photoblog. I am still alive but not real wordy so I thought I would throw a few more pics up!

The bronchitis seems to be taking it’s leave of me. I can actually breath without hacking up a lung now!

I am amazed and a little depressed at the amount of page views I am getting and I am still only getting comments from 2 people. I guess I could throw out my thoughts on politics every once in awhile to get the comments flowing, so here you go:

Most politicians are evil deceitful windbags that I wouldn’t trust as far as I could throw. Plus the majority of the presidential hopefuls we have now have strange sounding names which is a sure sign they won’t be getting in the whitehouse any time soon! And as for Hillary, she would have more luck trying to break into the whitehouse cause she sure isn’t getting voted in.

Alright, I’m done now, let the flaming begin.

Be careful what you wish for!

May 28, 2007 · Posted in Life · 1 Comment 

Remember a few posts back when I complained about never being home? How I wished I could just stay home for awhile? Yeah, well I take it back now!

Seems like cosmic justice was waiting for me to wish something like that. What happened to me you ask? Well I got a case of bronchitis of course! I still have it and still feel like crap but I am going back to work tomorrow and I don’t care how I feel!

When I said I wanted to stay home I didn’t mean like that. I wanted to hang around the house and actually enjoy it, not lie around in bed feeling like someone was pounding on my chest with a rubber mallet!

So it was a learning experience! I don’t really believe in karma or anything like that but there are moments like this that make me wonder sometimes!

Sidenote: my youngest has a really bad sunburn, I mean reallllyyyyy bad. I feel so sorry for her. She has had a horrid time tonight getting to sleep. I have been in her room a few times now just talking to her or putting more aloe crap on her. It’s sad because at first she doesn’t want you to put anything on it but then she realizes that it is the only way she is going to get any rest. It’s moments like this when I wish there was a way we could take the pain away, maybe soak it up into ourselves. I don’t like sunburns either but I would gladly take the pain for her so she could be happy and rest.

Oh fudgesicles!

For those who don’t think lightning strikes twice I present the illness from heck. I really thought I was getting better from the sinus problem the other day. I felt alright when I went to bed last night. Then when I woke up this morning it was back with a vengeance, just in time for the holidays!

In the strangeness category, the gas station that I normally go to was blocked off by personal vehicles this morning. When I parked next door and went over to ask what was going on they just said we’re closed! I just drove by there again 20 minutes ago and they are open now, sort of. They are running the gas pumps but they are using the payment window and not letting anyone in the store. There are no police around so I know it can’t be anything too bad, unless the employee’s got mad and killed the manager and they are trying to hide the body.

I don’t know why I continue to buy microwave pizzas? They never turn out very well, the edge crust is usually impenetrable and the center is usually a doughy mass. Todays pizza was no exception, I never learn!

Time to go do the Ricola thing, and some Dayquil to be on the safe side!

Ruffles have ridges!

May 23, 2007 · Posted in Life · 2 Comments 

I was sitting here typing out a comment on Linda’s blog when I noticed these ridges all over my hands! Who’s hands are these anyway? I don’t have wrinkles yet, I’m way too young! I figure someone sneaked in during the night and switched hands with me, it is the only explanation.

Obviously when they did this they also went to the trouble of switching out the muscles too. The ones I have now seem way more achy than the ones I used to have! I also noticed this weird popping noise when I stand up or stretch, got the bones too didn’t they?

At the heart of this whole revelation is my visit with my parents awhile back. I was sitting there chatting away with them when it suddenly occurred to me that my parents are getting old! I have never really seen them in that light before so it was really like seeing them for the first time ever! Honestly, it really gave me quite a pause. Reality just swooped in and set the tone for the rest of my life.

I am not the person I used to be, that can be both good and bad. I used to love stress, I loved the constant on the edge feeling that came with high stress moments. I took those times with a stride that I can’t even match in the relaxed moments now. Lord help me when stress becomes involved, I usually fall apart. I used to love being on the go, all the time. I was in a constant state of motion. Sometimes I would stay up for days straight just to get what I set out to do accomplished! Now I get grumpy if I am awake for more than 12 hours! What a change.

Alright, time to give my wrinkled flesh and atrophied muscles a rest, see ya.

Strangers in the night.

May 22, 2007 · Posted in Random Thoughts · 2 Comments 

I remember before I bought my new home how I was always complaining that we never did anything. We always stayed at home and just sat there. Since we have been in our new home I can’t seem to get a weekend where I am actually at home! I’m never there, I have all this cool stuff and no time to play with it. I haven’t figured out the reason why this happened but I am working on it.

I have some nasty little sinus infection. It has been making my life hell since Sunday evening. Today it is the worst that it has been so far. I hope that this is the worst that it gets. I don’t think I could take much more. I am going to stay home and get some bed rest! Work will have to live without me. I don’t think they would want me there anyway as I am constantly nauseous and lightheaded.

I have been trying to surf the interweb today and have noticed something very distressing. It seems that no one else is posting anything of use either. Oh well, at least I am in good company!
