I woke up in my bed this morning.  Already it's a better year than last.

It's been a year since I fell off the balcony.  I dedicated the entire day to sitting at home feeling sorry for myself.  I stepped out once to check my mail and twice to walk the pups.  Other than that, I haven't left the house ( Read more... )

It's been crazy around here lately! After spending two weeks alone in Fairview Crossing, it was time to move on to Haywood. Although, it wasn't like living alone at all! I had lots of family up one weekend to help pack and then very next weekend (or Thursday rather) they all started coming to help move ( Read more... )

Every night the past week I have been at Pleasant View working in my room. In a perfect world I would go to school at 8:00 and leave at 3:30, after an hour-hour and a half lunch break. In all actuality, I've been hitting the school at 8:00 and not making it back home until anywhere between 6 and 8! Why do I do this to myself? I dunno. Nana has ( Read more... )

Sometimes, out of nowhere, the reality of my life hits me full force. And I'm stunned. I wonder how I let this happen? Should I have seen it coming? I feel like the answer to that is a loud, resounding HELL YES! I had warnings~from my friends, my family, and even God himself. Warnings left unheeded result in this . . . my life trials ( Read more... )

I made it through Susie's trip to Atlanta.  I ended up opting out of Union and Columbia to spend time alone with PipNo.  I did read, a little.  Mostly I watched a LOT of TV.  I mean, a disgusting amount.  It was my goal to watch Season One of both Grey's Anatomy and House.  Grey's was no problem . . . it was only a few episodes.  House, on the ( Read more... )

Today was the last full day of school for Laurens 55.  It was also Awards Day.  Of course I made it, especially after I bitched out on yesterday's Field Day.

I arrived in time to sit next to Mrs. Demuth . . . I'm SO going to miss her if I don't get her second son next year.  Mr. Adams HAS to give him to me.  I think she might make a special request ( Read more... )

I was just thinking of all the fun I could have if I would allow myself to go to Clemson. I was just thinking of all the fun I could have not having any obligations. I was just thinking of all the fun I could have giving myself permission to get completely drunk. But I can't. My "health" problems won't allow that kind of freedom. Dr. Mays has ( Read more... )

Susie and I are little old women! I mean seriously, I cannot believe us sometimes. We were sitting here watching 7th Heaven like normal people when all of the sudden BOOM!!! We heard the screech of brakes and then a big ole boom. Yeah . . . there was a car crash. Susie and I jumped up (me, as quickly as an injured person can) and ran out onto ( Read more... )

Bliss.  Happiness.  SMILES.  Yup . . . that's how I feel.  Like a ray of sun is bursting through the cloudy sky.  I feel normal again.  Even if it is just for a little while~it's still "a little bit of normal."  And boy does it feel GREAT!

I got up today at 10:00. Not something I would generally be fond of but I think it's good for me ya know. I ( Read more... )
