My Two Devoted Readers

Wow! I think that the only two who really even read this anymore are my two, devoted, Joanne’s…my Mom and Jo my best friend for years and years (literally since grade 7). So I can pretty much say anything. Although Murphy’s law would say that the day that I do write gibberish will be the time that other people read this. I really need to get back to posting this on Facebook! Actually, Jo may not even be reading these much, since she’s on a holiday with her hubby. She won’t be missing much tonight, because I have a migraine and am going to take my migraine meds and hit the hay. I hope that this isn’t one of those nasty, lingering migraines, as this week is pretty busy for me. Tomorrow is the only day for the rest of the week that I have nothing going on. Well, actually, that’s not 100% true. I’m babysitting for a couple hours for a friend tomorrow afternoon. The next day is the appointment at the UofA pain clinic (after 18 months on the waiting list. For the pain clinic that my neurosurgeon is a part of. He couldn’t get me ahead- apparently that would be like playing favourites??? Go figure…) Anyway, then my daughter’s second dance competition is from Thursday until Sunday. Fun fun…well, actually, I love watching the dancing, it just always turns into very full and busy days. Also, I’m usually exhausted for the few days following the competitions. I hate that I still get drained and tired so easily. So very frustrating!! So, I’m going to go to bed. I want to nip this migraine in the bud. If that makes sense…strange expression huh?? So, until tomorrow. Night Momma (although you don’t usually read these until the morning). Hope you’re having a great time Jo, if you are indeed reading these while away!! Thanx for remaining my biggest fans. I love and appreciate you both!!!

Never Be Apart 

She silently prays for change

Looking inward for her discarded power

Distracting him with expression 

Lies raining down like a shower 

Eyes squeezed open he stares

Wondering if she’s lost his heart

Crushed beyond recognition, perhaps 

Always, he remains willing to restart 

Blindly they gaze into each other’s eyes

Wordlessly begging for their love to remain

Foolish or not, neither will surrender 

Accepting that love goes hand in hand with pain

For love to overcome, one must take leaps of faith 

Otherwise, she will crumple and fall into despair 

And he would burry his mangled heart with anger 

Instead, they believe that enduring love is still there

Realization dawns, love is her power

Understanding comes, his power is evidently her heart

Full of devotion, he gently kisses her hands

Together they vow to never be apart

Silent Wishes

Drifting aimlessly from destruction 

No faith will surely sink you

Clinging to the slippery hope

There’s little else left to do

Falling silently down a thoughtless waterfall

Trust in something bigger 

Screaming in decibels beyond my soul

Making dramatic pain snicker 

Praying aggressively on my shins

Dreams for certain change 

Peering secretly around my heart

Is more than I can arrange

To Publish??

I bought two books about writing today. They’re very different.  One is a no bullshit, here’s a bunch of tools, quick-wit go go go type book, called, “The Kick Ass Writer”.  Which I’m clearly not because I can’t, for the life of me remember if that period was supposed to be inside or outside the quotes. The second book talks about a zen writing method. There’s meditation involved and very soulful, deep-digging to bring out the depth of your thoughts and emotions, called “The True Secret Of Writing”. Very different approaches. They both appealed to different parts of me. So, hopefully, I will get something out of them!! I’ve been told by numerous people that I should publish my blog. I don’t know a thing about doing that. It’s something to think of. One of the books includes information on how to do all of that (& I intentionally made sure that the info would be Canadian, so that it actually applies to my needs!!)

Right now my needs are to go to bed. I either have bad allergies going on or I’m getting a cold. Either way, I’m super tired and I’m getting to bed!! Night all…😴😴

Warning, Internet Scam!!

🚧🚧🚧    WARNING   🚧🚧🚧 

DON’T EVER BUY ANY TRU BELLEZA PRODUCTS!!!!

So, tonight will be a bit of a warning section and a bit of a bitch session, but not about my health for once!! I think I got scammed…{yes, again, my hubby tells me I’m far too trusting!}😥😥 I saw an online add for some high-end “sample” skin care products that I “only had to pay shipping on”. Well, Apparently (according to itty bitty print that shows up after you pay for said shipping.) it’s not a sample, but a 14 day “trial”…sigh.  However, they very intentionally make sure that you don’t receive your “trial” until the 14 days have already passed, so that you have no choice but pay for the sample…far far far too much money. I searched it online and figured it out too late, along with literally thousands of other women. It took forever to find the information about what a big scam it is because they have like 50 fake positive reviews that show up on google search, long before the true reviews begin to surface. So, I read the (now that I know, fake) “reviews” and figured it was just a great promo going on…here’s my fatal error, I entered my credit card number and, without yet knowing it, I was sunk…Apparently they’re under investigation for fraud and CC companies have the company name on alert, because it’s happened to so many people. We need to contact the CC company asap to block any other withdrawals. (Hubby’s doing this!!) I’ve repeatedly tried to call the company today and apparently they intentionally are very hard to get ahold of, so that they can send you an order next month, regardless if you order it. I feel like such a fool!! Some people have gotten their CC companies to reverse the charges. I guess it depends which CC company and what your insurance is. I thought just paying the shipping was such a good deal…obviously too good to be true. Apparently they also have different company names, so if your CC company blocks one name, they just use another. Many people have just gotten brand new cards to get out of the loop and their line of sight completely!! This has to be illegal – you’d at least think it was…

If you’ve already fallen victim to his scam, I’m so so sorry 😦 😦 😦   I don’t know how people like this can even live with themselves. Whether you own the frickin’ company or just work for them. I guess all that I can say is one word: KARMA or (with a few more fun words) MORE PRECISELY, KARMA’S A BITCH!! YOURS IS COMING TRU BELLEZA!!!

The Assault!!

Zing! lightening strikes, from my ear down my jaw!

Zap! did someone just stab me with an ice-pick??

Sizzle! how did that hot iron appear on my face?

Jab! this time did someone jab me with a burning stick?

Some days it’s so exhausting,

You just want to curl into a ball!

Rocking back and forth in fetal position.

This damn pain makes me feel so small…

They don’t truly understand. 

What the pain is really like.

They say, “oh, I know how you feel”

Right!  Go take a f…ing hike!

This disease takes over your life,

While the meds take over your brain.

They’re called, “stupid pills” for a reason!

I think I may be going insane!!

No, you can’t fix me.

All I ask for is patience and space. 

You will never truly understand what it’s like,

Living with TN assaulting my face!!

😴

Feeling tired out right now. I’m not going to write much, I just need to get to bed. I’m so exhausted that anything I write will likely be bitchy and cranky or just bla bla bla. My brain is so fuzzy today. I don’t know why, I just know that I am. Could be the medication giving me the blas. Could be that it’s just been a long day. Just go go go, without any down time at all! Ug… So, instead of just whining anymore, I’m going to call it a night. Sleep well…😴

Such A Mess

My house is a mess!

Everywhere you look,

Everywhere way you turn,

Every cranny and nook!!

It’s seriously bad!

It stresses me out!

It makes me want to cry!

It makes me want to shout!

It’s also embarrassing,

I mean, very much so!

I’m uncomfortable having people over,

I’d rather them not know. 

It’s super overwhelming,

I don’t know where to start. 

It’s gotten out of control.

It’s hard on the heart!

Other people tend to say,

“I know, my house is messy too!”

But when they come over,

They see that it’s true!

I know I need to organize,

And throw shit away!

I need to go through a little bit,

Each and every day!!

Slowly but surely,

I’ll go through it all. 

Then when people come over,

I won’t feel quite so small.

Tummy Woes

I’m so tired of getting to bed so late!

So, my goal is to get to bed at a good time.

Besides, my tummy doesn’t feel so great,

It’s gurgling and running like it committed a crime!!

So tonight’s post will be rushed and quick!

So much for meaning and intention and stuff;

Now I’m just writing whatever will stick,

Please don’t go getting mad or in a big huff!

If you don’t like what you read here,

Just go right ahead and stop reading. 

I try to be full happiness and cheer,

But it’s hard when it feels like your guts are bleeding!!

This is really going nowhere good,

So I think it’s time to quit while ahead. 

My tummy is telling me that I really should,

So goodnight all, I’m off to bed!!

Blech

Hmmm…so much for “writing with intention”. Last night I said that I want to begin writing with intention, instead of being too “complainey” (yes, I know that’s not a real word) and here I am, feeling awful. It’s not even my face so much as my tummy tonight. I don’t know why, but I feel extremely nauseous. I hate when I feel like this. It feels like all that wants to spew out of me is word-vomit. It’s hard to focus on other things when you don’t feel great. If anyone should know that, it’s me! So I really just want to go to bed. I have for the past couple hours. I was online forever, trying to book my son’s birthday at Chuck-E-cheese. The system wasn’t working correctly. I have to call them tomorrow to see if the reservation even worked. Frustrating!! Also, it’s awfully expensive for a bunch of 6 year old kids. But, I’m trying to make things easier for myself. If I end up not having a good day, it’s not easy to throw a party for a little boy and a bunch of his friends. So I decided that if we go some where, entertainment is provided, with all of the games, as well as the climbing toy and big slide. If I feel crappy, it will make things a lot easier for me. So, here we come Chuck-E!! I really am not feeling great. I do need to get my butt into bed. So, until tomorrow!!
