I hardly consider myself the Queen of blogit, (I give that title to our lovely Ariala alone!!) but I thought I had at least a few loyal subjects!!!! So, come on....WHERE ARE YOU ALL????.... Note: Please don't be offended by this post...I'm just kidding!! Sign in to see full entry.

DEAR DJEDA Fourteen-year-old Anna seats herself next to the open window in the sitting room and takes some pink stationary from the shelf. She puts on her glasses and quicky ties her long strawberry blond hair into a pony tail. In front of her is the letter she received from Djeda two days ago. She... Sign in to see full entry.

I thought this post was finished after the last one I wrote on this subject, but I found I have far more to say than I first realised. In April, 1994, my grandmother had planned a party to celebrate what would have been Nana's and Grandpa's eighty first wedding anniversary. Grandpa didn't want the... Sign in to see full entry.

WARNING: The following post contains several statements which may be found offensive by the loyal female members of my audience.... To blame man for the past, present and future state of the world is wrong. It was, in fact, Eve who sinned first in the garden of Eden. Yes, it was the snake who... Sign in to see full entry.

Okay, gang... WHAT'S UP WITH THIS????? I've written two posts today, both of which I thought were good, and only ONE person has read me!!!!!.... Well, since my usually loyal fans are feeling anti-social towards me today....!!!!!! BIG FAT RASPBERRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Sign in to see full entry.

Here's something fascinating I didn't know... Some researchers at various universities are conducting studies on of all happiness. The study focuses on what makes people and why some are happier than others. This study is extremely interesting to me. Wish I could participate in the study, just for... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy Sunday, gang... Good morning!! I hope you've all be having a fantastic weekend!! Roommie and I were supposed to go see CARS today, but we're expecting thunderstorms sometime later on, so in the interests of safety, we've decided to stay put. Tomorrow is supposed to be much nicer, so we'll go... Sign in to see full entry.

I had another dream about London last night. I'm seriously thinking of going back. It won't be for a while yet, as I have to get my passport redone and save up the money, but I am thinking about it. This may be the last time I'm ever able to travel. My back isn't getting any better, and the longer I... Sign in to see full entry.

My mom came by for coffee earlier this afternoon, and was then off to visit the babies. While she was here, she informed us that Sebastian has an appointment with a neurosurgeon next week. Jimmy and Heather tried to get in this week, but the fellow they need to see is out on vacation. Last week, the... Sign in to see full entry.

Happy Friday to you all, my friends!! I hope you're all looking forward to this weekend and to the ensuing fourth of July holiday. I don't particularly care for that holiday myself, but that doesn't mean I don't wish you all a good time. Whatever you choose to do on Independence Day, please remember...

This post ties in with the one I wrote last night about brain damage being re-defined. For our first session, we'll discuss one of my favourite ways to inflict brain damage on those who've asked me for it. Note: The idea below was actually suggested by a friend of mine, who read about it in some... Sign in to see full entry.

This post is ode to our lovely Symphony and our humble King Dave...But also to Ariel70 and Malcolm...Because it's all their faults!!.... My mum always teases me that I should have been born in England, not America. From the time I was six years old, I've had English friends. I've lost touch with... Sign in to see full entry.

One of the more interesting things that sometimes happens to me when people learn I have Cerebral Palsy is the question, "What's that?" For some reason, the moment I explain that it's a condition caused by a brain injury, they tend to be either completely confused or absolutely mortified!! I have to... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning, gang... Thanks to all of you who left comments on my post from late last night. I know it may have seemed a bit overboard, but allow me to explain the reason I was so excited...And still am!! People who suffer from Cerebral Palsy are catagorised into three main groups. The first is... Sign in to see full entry.

Ladies and gentlemen, I've just tied my first ever slip knot!! I DID IT!!!! I ACTUALLY TIED MY FIRST SLIP KNOT!!!!....WOO HOO!!!!!!.... I really think I'm going to be able to crochet. I'm so excited!! I'll have to practise my first lesson several more times before I know for certain, but I seriously... Sign in to see full entry.

It was different for me when Nana died. I missed her terribly...I didn't want her to leave me, but even more so, I didn't want God to take her from Grandpa. I knew that if she left him, he wouldn't be far behind her. He wasn't. Exactly fourteen months and one day after Nana left us, Grandpa went... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning, gang... I hope you're all having a great Tuesday. The weather here is getting stranger by the minute. It's cloudy at the moment, but the poor sun is desparately trying to make an appearance!!....Let's hope it breaks through soon!! BTW...I was far from finished with my post on grieving...

Okay, ladies...How many of you have had this happen???? I was just on my way upstairs to the shower, when there was a loud knock at the door. I opened it to be greeted by a UPS fellow. Now, normally I wouldn't mind them coming to my door, but I was standing there in my pajamas!!!!!.... As if that... Sign in to see full entry.

I've been thinking about this post for quite some time now, but haven't been quite sure how to go about writing it. For that matter, it didn't actually make sense to me. (the thought, I mean, and what's sparked it). My grandmother passed away almost two months ago now. While I've missed her and... Sign in to see full entry.

I want to hold my son. I can't get to him...I don't know where he is. All I know is that I need to hold him. Even if for the moment I can't tell him who he is, I need to hold him. This sudden urgency has an explanation, strange as it will probably sound. Last night I was watching a documentary on... Sign in to see full entry.
