Christy's couch

Good morning, gang... It's Monday again. How I HATE Mondays!! It wouldn't be so bad, except that I didn't fall asleep until well after midnight. Today is going to be a busy one for me. In a few minutes, I have to hit the shower, then make a couple of phone calls to pay off a couple of bills. Then... Sign in to see full entry.

Don't get me wrong, gang. I love the holiday season, I really do. But when it comes to the shopping bit, I'd just as soon stay away from the malls and the toy shops and other such madhouses. First off, I don't do well in large crowds. I used to, but then for some reason as I got older, I began to... Sign in to see full entry.

Good afternoon and happy day after Thanksgiving, my friends!! Yes, your loveladymonk has returned to you much sooner than expected. This was not in my plans obviously, but there was an urgent online matter that needed taking care of as soon as possible that I had completely forgotten about that... Sign in to see full entry.

A happy and blessed Thanksgiving to you all, my friends. Please stay safe and warm tomorrow and have a wonderful time with your families and friends. See you all again on Monday. Until then, I'll miss you all!! God bless each one of you. Sign in to see full entry.

I'm sitting here with tears in my heart. I am thinking of my sweet, beautiful little son and his wife. Tomorrow is Thanksgiving, and while I meant to send them a card, I didn't have a chance to get out to choose one for him. Of late, I've been to tired to write long letters to anyone. I haven't had...

I just sent Mick an email. It's the third one in less than a month, but I felt it needed to be sent. Especially with everything he's been going through for so long. I just wrote to tell him how thankful I am to have him and Nathan Aaron in my life. I don't think enough people take the time to tell... Sign in to see full entry.

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving Day, and I just started thinking about Paul. I don't know what religion he observes, (though I do know he is faithful) so I don't even know if he observes Thanksgiving. I'm thankful that God allowed Paul to leave Yugoslavia and come here to our country. I'm thankful that he... Sign in to see full entry.

Can you all believe tomorrow is the big day? I know I can't!! Where the heck has the year gone???? For me, it feels as if the year has only just began and...POOF!! Before I realise it, it's holiday season again. I'm happy to say, that for the most part, this year has been good to me. I've had a... Sign in to see full entry.

Wow, what a day!!...I didn't get a chance to come back and write...I wanted to, but I started feeling tired again. I HATE days like this!!!! Tomorrow is going to be an even longer day. Roommie and I will cook part of Thursday's feast ahead of time so we have enough energy left to enjoy the meal.... Sign in to see full entry.

Hey, we all have 'em, don't we? Let me assure you all that I have absolutely no intention of being the exception to this rule!! I truly believe that God gives us "adjustment periods" in our lives to make us stronger and bring us closer to Him. What a wonderful gift!! This neck collar is going to... Sign in to see full entry.

Good evening gang, Yes, sadly this is the first time all day I've been able to come here to be with you all. Much has happened today, and I fear this may be my only post of the night. Mum stopped for coffee after my appointment. She's going to bring us some things on Wednesday to help us prepare... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning, gang... Roommie has gone to visit her sister for the day, so I've decided to do a bit of writing and online shopping while she's gone. First, however, it's off to the shower. Tomorrow is the big but not-so-exciting day...My appointment with John. I have to be there at 9:00, which means... Sign in to see full entry.

We were a bit bored this afternoon, and since we still have some leftover apples from Mum, Roommie decided to bake us an apple tart!! It's cooling on the kitchen counter top. I know this probably sounds like a silly thing to do, but since it turned out so well, I'm going to take a picture of it on... Sign in to see full entry.

Hello? Are any of my loyal subjects out there????? Sign in to see full entry.

I'd like to dedicate this post to MiaElla and shellyb. I just read their posts about feeling sad or not in the mood to celebrate the holidays, and it set me off to thinking again... Why is it that some people just don't agree with or understand another's wishes not to celebrate certain holidays? Why... Sign in to see full entry.

I can't take it any longer. I have to do something, though I won't be able to do it as soon as I'd like. I pray God will forgive me for having to delay for another month or so. This morning as I ate breakfast, I sat watching another infommercial about the International Fellowship of Christians and... Sign in to see full entry.

I'm sitting here completely disgusted with my fellow human beings this morning. Here's why... I just read online that a person in a Connecticut shopping mall waiting line was shot by another. The reason for the shooting? A playstation3. I'm sitting here wondering why we as human beings place more... Sign in to see full entry.

I kept hearing his words in my head. He was trying to tell me goodbye. I never thought I'd come to this place and not have him there, but for him, the time had finally come. For the longest time, I couldn't speak. I just stared into his face, praying I'd never forget what it looked like. Finally, he... Sign in to see full entry.

This is still more of the letter I've been writing to Mick that was based on that coma exercise given to me by my tenth grade creative writing teacher.
