1. Medication seems to be helping me but there are a lot of freaky side effects that I am having a hard time with. Mainly my loss of appetite (I have lost 5 lbs in the last 2 weeks), my forgetfulness and warped time line (what day is it again?) and the headaches and neck aches I seem to be getting every morning. On the flip side, I am not panicking ( Read more... )

1. Had a nice phone date with Sugar Daddy #1. We talked for 1.5 hours and it flowed well, he seems really cool and open minded and has been doing this for awhile. He's got cash & his own business, but is not looking for a Full-On Sugar Daddy Role. He just likes to take women out and treat them well. That's cool with me. We have an actual date next ( Read more... )

1. Anya just lost her first tooth!! The sad part is, she actually "lost" it somewhere between her friend Serena's trampoline and the front door. She may have swallowed it. I have decided to play the part of Tooth Fairy, though I still refuse to play the Santa Game. I wrote her a letter and gave her a dollar. She was so thrilled and a bit perplexed ( Read more... )

Kindergarten is kicking my butt as far as having to prepare on a daily basis to get Anya to school on time. Lunches, clothing, hair, breakfast, it all adds up to a lot of time that I did not intend on. Not to mention the early hour, though I have to say, it HAS been a lot of extra work but I am doing it, getting it done and having little drama ( Read more... )

1. Mom's still living, and she's still dying. I thought she would be gone by now. Months ago I could not envision her being around for this long. We got a "time frame" from hospice and it could be another 4 weeks for her. My Birthday is next week and I feel happy to have one last celebration with her ( Read more... )

1. Mom's still dying...I keep thinking, "this is it, she'll be dead in a few days.." but she keeps on ticking. She woke up from her nap yesterday and looked at me ands said, "I can't believe I am still here." then started to cry. My sister and I thought briefly of euthanasia, but realistically I don't think I could do that, not to mention the ( Read more... )

Here's how my Xmas was. It was by far the BEST Christmas in a long time! I decided to do a truly "Non-Christmas" Christmas. I still don't do the "santa thing" with Anya, instead we celebrate Solstice and talk about the spirit of generosity with others. It's so much more in the spirit of the season than Chaos, overspending, over stressing, and ( Read more... )

1. The Ganja-Baked-Good Making Party was lovely. I had only 2 friends make it, Cute Bulk Boy and Cute Kitchen Boy, both 20. We made a yummy batch of brownies, Ganja Honey and the Boys made 5 pounds of butter for themselves. They also left me with a HUGE bag of leaf for all my future Ganja Cooking Dreams. It was a blast to hang out with them and ( Read more... )

1. IT RAINED!!!! YEAH! It was a full on thunder and lightning experience in the middle of the night. I awoke to dramatic clouds, the sound of rain on my deck and a feeling that, hopefully, all of this summer will be washed away in a distant memory ( Read more... )
