phew!

My mom is okay. She came home on Thursday. She's a nutcase and I'm glad she's home. I'm riding her about those meds cause if she screws up like this again....well we just won't go there huh? My best friends husband had a heart attack on Monday too. Like I didn't have enough worry in my world, add that one to the bunch. He is doing fine as well, had a blockage and was easily removed and he's home. Her life is worse than mine cause he's more stubborn than my mom and refuses to admit he has to curb his less than healthy lifestyle now. Men are all alike in that way huh? Was at the zoo yesterday with a friend from years ago. We had a blast. Bittersweet to see someone so happy being a father and husband. Yes, Peter was nowhere to be found and this is actually his friend from grade one...yup, love my life and all those in it... Either way, onward and upward. The job at Starbucks is gone, I've applied at another place and hopefully I'll have b

Please Pray...

My mom is ill. Seriously ill. She's in the ICU out in Colbourg. Apparently she had an infection that got out of control and now she has Sepsis. Do yourself a favour and DON'T GOOGLE IT!!! Google is a wonderful thing in life when you need some information, but when you're looking up medical information.....well it just scares the pooh out of ya. The last thing I googled before this was the spider I killed in my basement and let me tell you that was a mistake too, thing is bad mojo...... Mom is on IV fluids and antibiotics, we're hoping it was caught in time to knock it down. Did I mention that Sepsis can be fatal if not caught early enough................................

Great...

Forced cold turkey withdrawls.......could be worse I guess. I could be more than tired and headachy. Maybe this is a good thing to get off the happy drugs. Maybe my time on antidepresents has come and gone. After all, it's been four and a half years since I started them. Dad's anniversary passed this year with no tears so hopefully I've gotten over it? Who knows. In odd related news...my ex's dad passed on Peters birthday. I'm not sure if there is a meaning for that, but George was always my advocate in that relationship so it hurts a little that he's gone, not that I've seen him at all in the past 15 years... Either way, I need to get in gear and get rid of the flipping mouse who is making my life a misery...stinking brown fatty living behind my stove, I'll get you, don't you worry..............

Breast Cancer.....

Has touched my life a few times in the past. Distant people in my family or friends of friends... This time she has a name and a face that I love. One of my dear friends Angie was diagnosed not too long ago and has already had her double Mastectomy. She's younger than me. I want to do the walk. The Princess Margaret Weekend to End Breast Cancer. Will you help? I have those sweet little bracelets, they say Mothers, Sisters, Daughters, Friends. I'm selling them for $5 each. I'm trying to figure out other ways to raise funds...if I had more clients, I would host a crop or card making day and give my proceeds to this. I suppose I can ask some peeps that I know to sponsor me...just so frustrating. Even more frustrating is that Angie is so far away and I can't be with her as she starts her Chemo. I'm holding her hands with mine in my heart and I know she can feel it...
