Dem darn leaves again!

My mom was diagnosed with Type 2 Diabetes on Halloween. Happy Halloween to you!
I was about to say Merry Christmas.
Hey, be lucky I even remember that it was Halloween.
My brain has become a freaky momma brain.
I'm not sure where I was headed with that since I've covered it already.
Have I?
Oh yeah, last post.

Speaking of which...



I read a post from the lovely Jenny on the Spot this morning
No, not that Jenny from the block... ON the SPOT. Following?
Anywho, she wrote about being pecked to death.
See her and the post here - Ever Been Pecked to Death and I laughed so hard after watching the video.
On my phone because that's how I be doing it in the morn.
I just love that vid.
It's so my life. lol

Can I just say that sometimes? I really don't like my name? No, really... I don't.
I get sick of hearing it called during the day so much that I will literally walk into my room and shut the door. Or, I will put headphones in.
Which leads me into hearing, "You never listen to a word I say!"
What?
Oh, right.
No, I do, I just choose to actively not listen 24/7 is all. Sometimes I'd like to hear those weird thoughts in my head.
No, they don't tell me to do bad things. Unless that is, I hear someone say my name AGAIN.
Well, I won't go there.

So where was I?
Oh yeah.
My mom's having fun asking me a lot, if she can have this or that to eat since being diagnosed. We're only in the second week or so of it, but I'm in charge of the taking ze blood part.
Most people might find it fun to poke someone with a needle.
But have you tried to take my mom's blood?
I feel like I'm milking a cow sometimes.
And coikidentally, that's how I do it.
Squeeze and pull down toward the pokeage area... sqqquuueeezzzee and pull down toward the pokeage area... seriously give up the blood!
And yes, she's being poked, she just isn't on her blood thinners right now so her body say nuh unh to giving up the blood.
It's funny to the both of us.
I've told her, "Vampires would not have fun with you. Seriously."
She replies, "I'd just be sore all over."
It's just another "responsibility" I'm trying to juggle.
Not complaining, just saying.
And making due.

Now it's time to rake some of dem ebil leaves that won't stay off the yard no matter how many times I threaten them to. Seriously, they need to listen. Don't they have ears? Come on now.

I mean how beautiful right...? That's not even half the yard...


Til next time!
hugs and kisses
love you all!! :D

Sidenote:
Listening to sleigh ride in the background and humming while writing this.
Because you needed to know.
Something new you learned today that you didn't know.
You're welcome.

Silent relaxing sunday--wait it's Saturday. A day lost and found! :)

This week's   GBE   is about "Lost and Found." I know a lot of people some years back thought that I'd lost myself. I was even told it was the better part of myself. It took me years to figure out that it wasn't true. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I always believed it to be true. Until I finally had the courage to admit to myself, that they were in the wrong; not me.  That's the problem with some "friends." They aren't really your friends. Someone recently told me something that really hit home. It was profound even.  She said:  "The friend is not a friend. just a person with emotional gravity in your life."    Well that's true. Granted, the comment she had made was from a completely different happening, but still it works.  A lot of people are fortunate in having tons of close friends, even close friends that stick around their entire lifetime. I gave up on that notion a long time ago. I realized that mostly, friends w...

(GBE 2:Blog On) First Love

Old post being reposted. GBE2: Blog On's Topic this week is: First Love Click the link to find out what GBE2: Blog On is and how YOU can participate. If you love writing and/or blogging, it's the place to go! Great people, great fun, what more could you ask for? FIRST LOVE When I first saw the topic for this week's GBE2, my first thought was of the friendship I walked away from just last week. He was one of my first love's. But I had already talked about it on a previous web post so I wanted something different. I just didn't want to focus on it. Today, while I was doing dishes, a.k.a inspiring myself, I thought of a different first love. To myself. I do too. I love myself. I may not always like myself... I mean come on, if you had to live with her 24/7 she might drive you batty too. But I do love myself. People can tell you so. I don't need to. Well I did, but... I'm digressing. I'm quirky, crazy (two different things there obbb...

(GBE2: Blog On) Let go of the reins and you'll know freedom

This week's (4th) GBE2: Blog On topic is "Control." For more info head here I admit it, I'm a type-A personality. It was a learned behavior. I felt as though I needed to be in constant control of everything around me. I worked 3 jobs and went for weeks on occasion without a day off. I still felt as though I wasn't doing enough. Not around the house, not with my friends, not for dating, not even for work. I just have always had this "I'm not doing enough" attitude instilled in me from a lot of the immediate people around me. So a lot of my behavior was ingrained so deep that I still suffer with that. I feel as though no matter what, I'm not doing enough, being the best I can be, and all of that great unhealthy attitude one should not have. But I do. And I know it's not good, but I still suffer with feeling inadequate because I am just not doing enough. Which is wrong. It's just something that I suffer with. I admit to it....
