How have you all been?

Hello all Blogit friends old and new.....how have you been? I know my "disappearance" was rather abrupt but I desparately needed to shut off for a while....too much was going on.....nothing major, thank God, just dealing with the demons that pop into my mind now and again. Hopefully the slate will... Sign in to see full entry.

From near nervous breakdown to business class flying:a true Christmas story

Hello fellow bloggers, first of all I'd like to wish everyone a very belated Merry Christmas, hope you & yours all had a happy and safe one, but most of all I'd like to thank all the sweet folk who left kind thoughts and who sent emails asking about my health. Basically, I was a wreck before flying... Sign in to see full entry.

go into the post office....wind up in the emergency room...

That's exactly what happened to me today.....exhaustion got the best of me and I passed out while online to pay some bills. The post office manager got scared and called an ambulance as a precaution and they took me to the hospital to do some routine tests. I'm better now but still feeling weak. Of...

Ha! Did you know that depression doesn't exist?

Well, that's the theory, according to some people...... I was going to sit and blog/browse/comment later on this evening after sorting out all the little things that need to be done before flying back to NY on Friday, but I just had to find five minutes to type this. This morning I went to visit a... Sign in to see full entry.

Peace on Earth and Goodwill towards all men...too bad it ends on the 26th

It is that time of year again where we are bombarded with flashy, repetitive and downright annoying commercials brainwashing us to buy, buy, buy, spend, spend, spend (ok, I'll only spare The Clapper and Chia Pet commericials, I grew up with them!) Interspersed between them, more often than not, you... Sign in to see full entry.

A PSA from NYIS.....

You really want to know when winter is here? Is it by the cold air outside? No Is it by the snow on the ground? No Is it by the layers of clothing we wear to brave the cold?

But then of course…there are people who don’t need people…

I spoke to a friend of mine yesterday who was on the verge of tears. She kept saying, “what’s wrong with me – do I have the plague or something like that”?

Is your life like a Pink Floyd verse?

Tired of lying in the sunshine staying home to watch the rain. You are young and life is long and there is time to kill today. And then one day you find ten years have got behind you.
