Queen Snowy wanders into the coco patch to see what her patchie nuts have been doing in her absence.. Adjusting her tilted crown, she plants her feathery butt down at the cocobar and orders a QS cocktail with little umbrella and slice of pine apple..... hummmm surveying the scene she decided to finish her cocktail and wait for a bit before taking any action....View Thread

I received Christmas cards from two of my granddaughters, each one describing a special Christmas wish. The oldest, a freshman at my alma mater, after a very brief "Happy Holiday", got straight to business and requested an advance of $500 on her family scholarship for a deposit on Teaching Seminar Trip to Chicago Schools in January.
(hmmmmm . . . although it's very hard, Goat began thinking)
The second holiday card came from the youngest seventh grader in the family. Along with a two-page seasonal letter from her mother, a separate page described an upcoming three-day field trip to (guess where) Chicago and the Museum of Science and Industry, Aquarium, etc. The advance payment for this little extra-curricular is only $1,259. This includes transportation, meals, two overnite semi private lodge spaces, and daytime entertainment for whatever 7th graders do when they aren't captivated by the next new personal electronic device.
(the blare of an internal warning device interrupted an otherwise peaceful mental connection with his grandgirls, and Goat gasped at once . . . then sighed deeply.
are these kids the source of doubt, he wondered, that is being released on society each passing year? after a moment, Goat summoned his faith, and concentrated on ways he had learned to "Dodge the hot potato.")
Be jolly, my friends, and guard your hearts.View Thread
Then, in flash of cerebral thought, (difficult since goats do not have cerebrum) he remembers that Black Friday is coming soon! Everybody must be out shopping for special sales on everything from flat screen TVs to toys, and cell phones to MP3 players. Everybody is so busy shopping, they are all ordering their Thanksgiving dinners catered this year and will eat watching their favorite NFL stars do battle at 42, 46, 52, or more inches of LCD. Wow, times have changed.
Not so long ago, the goat recalls, Mama Goat gathered Ibex and all the other little goats together at dinnertime. She would have them take turns reciting the things they were thankful for and why they were thankful. Ibex remembers all the others whom he loved back then, and a tear splashes in the sand ahead of his next step.
They are what the Goat is most thankful for this year and you, my friends, are among those precious folks.
Who, or what, are you thankful for ????

I love to dance, and I was having horrible anxiety about even going. But OMG....I needed the endorphine rush of the music and dancing and all of that "good" energy. Besides, it will make my kids feel good to see mom having some fun and smiling, cause she hasn't done that in a long while.View Thread

here are my issues 1) I dont have Health Ins
2) i dont have money LOL
3) I've been tested for Lupus, Lyme and RA, all with negative results
I've also had a CAT scan, Xray's, and Ultrasounds (on my abdomen as the pain has wiggled its way there as well).
My aggravation is this, I have symptoms of Lupus a lot of symtoms of lupus, but yet the test was negative. I'm pretty frustrated, needless the say the degree of pain i'm feeling isnt helping my depression/anxiety issues.
Have any of you dealt with anything like this? What was your outcome (if you are comfortable talking about it), what are you doing to try to manage your pain? I am extremely ticked off with this whole thing, if nothing i need gentle hugs. LOL Thanks ladies/gents for the rant.View Thread
But I'd like to go back to enjoying some of that male company. And yes, two may be from the past one - one a very very very distant past...and another with a more recent history. In fact, he's been a part of my recovery and learning to believe in myself again.
I'm being extremely selective in who I let back into my life..or even who I let in to begin with since my PTSD issues are linked mostly to abusive relationships and abandonment.
The one who was part of my recovery is married. We always both just remained friends, even though there was a chemistry there. As things with me deteriorated, I can remember his anger at my chosen partner for not taking more responsibility on for caring for me. When all hell broke loose with my mom and she dumped me, literally, out on the street, little did I know he went and confronted her. And then I cut everyone out. I disappeared for a long time.
Well anyways, I guess him seeing me past the suicide attempts, the total disappearance from his life for a year, he's had a lot of time to think about the role we've both played in each other's lives. He told me the other day he's preparing to file for divorce. And it's me he's loved all this time.
My concern here is....we've always ignored this before. Now it's something we have to talk about. And while he has ALWAYS held a part of my heart, I'm hesitating. Therapist told me I needed my equal or someone stronger. He meets and exceeds this. So maybe I'm just afraid of what I should have been getting from a relationship all along?
As for the other one...he was who I dated before I met my ex-husband. It was a tumultous point in my life. Almost a month before my dad passed from a cancer where I was his medical surrogate at 21. And I met my ex on a night where this man who'd I'd been happy as a clam with up to that point, broke a date to go line dancing to go drinking with the guys on st patrick's day. It's not he didn't fight to get me back..cause he did. Flowers. Coming by. He and the ex even got into a physical altercation where I liked to go to dance (my relief of stress from dealing with my dad). And I cut him out. But he haunted me in my dreams....with my dad...because he'd seen me up to the almost end. So I decided to confront him...we met....talked.....had a beer or 2....and i drove him home because he was completely intoxicated over me explaining i was never returning. On my way back to his house.....it was raining, dark....a dark back road I never recognized....an unmarked hairpin turn and a standard tranny....i slammed on the brakes, hit the clutch, turned the wheel and spun. I remember hitting the dumpster on my side. I vaguely remember him getting me into the passenger seat....getting me to his house. I was hyperventilating asking for my ex whom he called as well as EMT's. We've refound each other too. Just as strong as I am too.
I'm going home soon. He knows everything that has happened. I've hidden nothing. He's supported every decision I've made in the last few months. But most of all he's opened this window to my life I'd forgotten existed. That confident, brazen, flirty woman I'd always been prior to getttin married. He's reminded me of who I once was and who I was when I was with him. So many firsts. Jewelry. Last xmas I ever celebrated.
So....with all that out there...what cha think????View Thread
