Early start

Posted on June 24, 2017 by dray0308

Good morning everyone
I woke up at 8 so decided to get up. even tho i only went to bed at 3 AM. no point in staying in bed and sleeping on a hot day, it wastes the day in my opinion.
i have no plans for today. my dad just took nitro for a walk. he always does that when i am visiting. he has his own dog called biggie, a bullstaff, he walks him too his dog is his life he likes to walk him and so when nitros here he doesnt miss out and goes for walks too.
i intend on catching up on my blogs for the morning and then we’ll see after that.

Dr. Who and the Lazarus effect…

Yes I know – I haven’t blogged for a bit have I? Sorry, what with being in the final of The People’s Book Prize and putting on the play wot I wrote, I’ve been a bit busy.

No doubt I’ll blog about those two newsworthy events in the near future, but just to show that I’m not averse to cheating here’s one I prepared earlier and posted on the blog page that time forgot.

Just a few thoughts on the timelessness of social media. Normal ~~saftness~~ service will be resumed as soon as possible – so here as a booster shot is, ‘Doctor Who and the Lazarus effect….’

Cue intro music – Numa num num, numa num num, numa num num, numa num num, numa num num, numa num num, numa num num, numa num num, ooo wee ooo…

I’m afraid to tell you all that I have extremely bad…

I Was Wrong

Posted on June 21, 2017 by dray0308

Fearless

I was wrong. I know, I know, you can’t believe it! But I was. Actually I was wrong twice.

The first thing I was wrong about was physical therapy. My orthopedist ordered an MRI of my back so that we could begin epidural shots to relieve pain. However, the health insurance would not approve an MRI until I went through six weeks of therapy.

So I thought, I don’t need any more physical therapy! I’ve been doing it almost every day for the last four years and more therapy won’t do any good. However, I am seeing great results from the new exercises and the old exercises which are enhanced to the next level. So I was definitely wrong about that.

The second thing I was wrong about was the type of multiple sclerosis that I have. When I was first diagnosed four and a half years ago, the neurologist…

In the Process…

The knowing
of someone
a process, being
as so many other things
in life,

So many different facets
angles unseen
your light reflects differently
depending on which face
you choose to present to me

The unknown qualities
of any one person
remain hidden until
the time is ripe for their
coming out

Your true talents
shine the brightest
drawing the attention
of others, closer to you

Others wanting to know you
as well

I am just one,
a single person who
has had the privilege of
being in the process of knowing

Learning daily, how you are
as a person,
how you think, how you treat others
what causes you pain, or joy, or laughter

Learning about someone
being a process
a lifelong journey

A quest…

Cucumbers

Who's My Favorite Today?

A few weeks ago, I was driving to the beach for the weekend with just the two teenagers. It was Friday night of Memorial Day weekend and I knew the traffic would be thick, so I took an alternate route through farm country. Really. I mean middle-of-nowhere, drive-45-minutes-to-the-grocery-store farm country.

At one point we went through a small town that is known for growing a lot of cucumbers for a particular pickle company. I told the girls this and pointed out the fields and warehouses for the cucumbers.

Then Brooke said, “Where are the trees?”

Me: What do you mean trees…?

Brooke: The cucumber trees.

Me: There are no cucumber trees. Cucumbers grow on vines.

Brooke: No they don’t. They grow on trees.

Image result for no gif This back and forth went on for a while. I told her that cucumbers definitely grew on vines. She wasn’t having it. Could not be convinced. I…

My A – Z Codependency Challenge – T

Diary of a Recovering Codependent

Trust, Teased, Tiresome, Tired

Trust – We are born with an innate ability to trust and as we grow, we develop a sense of who we can or cannot trust based on our life experiences. Somehow along the way, my trust sensor broke. I blame it on my lack of self-esteem from a very young age. You see, my need for approval and acceptance was far greater than my need for you to be trustworthy. How it happened, I don’t really understand myself. Sure, I can see how I developed such low self-esteem but it just boggles my mind that I would trust anyone who came into my life.

I always tried to see the good in people and that would become my focus; the good. Oh sure, I would see the signs (the bad) but I kept my focus on the good. That’s what broken people do. Looking back…
