Abuelita, cuddling with the fuzzikids always makes it harder to get up.
It's funny how much they dictate our lives like children do, but they are so cute we just let them have it. Your brain is an organ, but it relaxes mine first, too...so I end up sleepy, dopey, and thirsty (he's a new dwarf). My recovery time is so long from that little thing, when after the accident I was in so much pain I could take 8 a day and feel nothing, not even relief. I was laughing today at how it all comes at once...I've had the flu and a cold and these brilliant migraines for weeks...then the shoulder started acting up. So, I'll be 100 years old and I'll make up a story about the sickness of 2004 for all the children and scare them about that horrible flu sickness we had with the scary cowboy president who couldn't get the vaccines (by then the flu will be history). Usually I just take ibuprofen, but sometimes it's beyond that.
I probably do open up too soon, but I figure I am just being myself and I don't know how to be anything else. A friend told me recently that it was that quality that made me "refreshingly genuine" -- I like that, I can live with that....besides, when it works out, it's the best. I guess I gotta just take the lumps, too, then. :)~

Cass...
I think there will always be complications to any relationship I find satisfying, because anything else would not come with the things I need to stimulate me....so...time will tell. I'm still not sure, but I do adore having him in my life. You know who it is, we've been friends for a while, just think about it for a minute. You're right, the universe will take care of it how it's supposed to...but it can still be hard. Glad you had fun, nice to see you back. :)

Temple, your warm comfy bedtime sounds delicious right now.
When I wake up in the morning, I never really want to ever get out of bed and I know that I could truly sleep for days with my doggies curled up at my tummy and feet, under the covers. I get up because they want to go outside. The young one stays in the garden sun and the old one crawls back into bed and so, I usually do too, for another hour of sleep, until the young one scratches to come back in and then it's another hour in bed with her and the old one. Finally I drag out of bed, looking wistfully back at the body warmed covers and sigh...........
I am so sorry that you've been feeling yucky for so long and that it's actual physical pain. I hate muscle relaxants, too, they seem to relax my brain first, it it a muscle?? I've taken up tylenol or aleve to be able to sit all day at my work table, but I must begin to exercise and got out in the sun....I am beyond pale and miss the Vitamin D.
About people, I would just say that you probably open up too soon, but what is too soon? Where is the rigid timetable which sets out proper times for opening up to people, for trusting? I can't find mine.

Temple - I'm back! and the best thing about being back is finding you have written again. Your life is sounding interesting, even if complicated. I'm glad you found someone, despite the ifs and buts. People will probably always let you down and me too and a lot of people as well. But the Universe will look after all of us...

Yes, Bella, it's been a long time.
I do complicated well, it seems. I was reading all these things about how we learn life's richness by it's complications. I must be a very rich woman indeed. :)
Thank you. :)

Billy, I don't even think I know what that means....
I gotta either accept them and face the risk or not, so...that's where it stands now. Invest too much? Well, when faced with something great can we really invest too much? It hurts if it doesn't work out, but it can be a life long regret if we hold back and always wonder if that was the one that got away...so...we take it one step, one small step, at a time right now. I don't have any expectations right now, it was a surprise that just showed up out of this friendship...nice surprise. Thanks for looking out...and if you haven't, check your email.
