A fitful night of restless sighs

A silent night barraged by the raging noise inside my head

Words and thoughts and fears and regrets

A night where the disparaging voices can’t be tamed

Overtaken by reproachful thoughts of shame and guilt

Smothered by dreams of joy and hope

Pain and sorrow and faith and trust

Tumble together in a twisted truth

Is this paradise?

🎉🎉Happy Birthday to my sister!!🎉🎉

So, I’ve been kind of off all week. I feel like the days have kind of been a blur. Nothing much has happened. It’s been a lot of the same old thing…I don’t know why I just feel so bla.

My daughter and I have gotten into the show “The 100.” We have been watching it all week! It is feeling like an addiction. It’s so easy to just watch and watch episodes back to back. We keep saying “well, just one more episode.” We’ve managed to watch a season and a half in under a week! So crazy and so easy to do! I think that PVR’s and then Netflix (& all of the new streaming networks) have completely changed how we watch TV & movies. It wasn’t so long ago that there was a movie rental store on every street corner. Then you could “rent” a movie “on demand” from your home. Netflix wasn’t far behind. Now, we PVR our favourite shows, who even watches commercials these days?? We get our movies on Netflix or (a’hem, occasionally) download them ourselves. I actually miss watching previews or trailers (whichever you prefer to call them) before movies. They would keep me up to date about what is coming out soon. But now, who needs them? My husband just logs onto the play station network, then there’s a network (IGN or something?? Don’t quote me on this!) and you can watch previews of new releases to theatre, or new DVD releases, or probably whatever previews you’re interested in. Frankly, you can pretty much watch whatever you want on-line now…My youngest daughter rarely watches actual “TV” now, she’s either on YouTube or Netflix. I had no idea where this conversation was going. Huh. It’s pretty crazy how quickly technology is changing things. I have kids whose ages are not that close & I can really see the difference between my kids. My four year old doesn’t know how to use a mouse, but he can navigate my iPad better then me. It just changes so so quickly! It’s hard to keep up. My kids &/or hubby help me whenever I don’t know what to do…with my phone, the TV, the WiiU, the PS4, my iPad, etc. etc… I haven’t even figured out how to add photos on this blog yet!! Well, one day at a time I guess…

And, on that note, I’m going to go to bed now! This whole conversation…how random!

Hopefully one day I’ll get it right, or at least have fun, while about it I write!!

Here’s Hoping Tomorrow’s A Better Day

Today I really don’t have much to say.

It seems that time just quickly flies away.

It’s now time to get ready to go to bed.

The first thing I do, is think ahead,

And if needed, remember my TN tips!

Before brushing teeth, try to avoid your lips,

While applying Anbesol gel to your teeth and gums,

Then quickly brush your teeth, while it numbs!!

To wash your face use water that’s not too cold or hot,

I wash with pressure as it causes less pain, believe it or not!

Pat to dry, definitely don’t rub,

And whatever you do, do not scrub!!

Spray a light toner, if that’s something you like to do.

For night cream, again applying pressure works here too!

If the pain’s bad the toner will do. Lotion? No way! I will skip it!

And, for pain above the bad range? Just forget all of this shit!

Just take med after med after med,

Then throw your ass into bed!!

Don’t forget to have heat or get ice.

Lie down and pray for your sleep to be nice!!!

Hopefully you’re able to get some rest,

Good sleep helps you feel your best…

Well, that’s what I’m told anyway,

Here’s hoping tomorrow’s a better day!!
