Stress........it pretty much kills.

What kind of doctor would you see about having your head removed? You think I'm kidding? Just having my heading sitting atop my neck is killing me. I just have no idea in the world why I'd be stressed. Therefore, enjoy these.......

Stress-what happens when your gut says no but your mouth says "Of course, I'd be glad to."



Stress: "The confusion created when one's mind overrides the body's basic desire to choke the living daylights out of some jerk who desperately deserves it."



Stress is when you wake up screaming and realize you haven't fallen asleep yet.



We now return you to your regularly scheduled program.

It's a new year.........again.


It's now 2011. The world was supposed to cease in 2000 with all that Y2K stuff, and yet here we are. The world is supposed to be ending next year too. Somehow, I think we'll all live past that one too.



This is probably the first new year of my life that I haven't felt hopeful at all for a new year. Depressing, huh? I have no resolutions made since I don't believe in resolutions. Resolutions and actual change are the stuff of fairy tales. Time has taught me one thing. There is no such thing as happily ever after.

I have had so many things I have wanted to do with my life and now I fear that I will never attain those things. My life has been one of getting other people where they are going. I've envied the stay at home moms who can raise their children and develop their talents. I've envied the women who have obtained their higher degrees of education. I've envied the women whose husbands and parents supported them with their goals. I've envied those that have seemed to have gotten out of life what I've desperately wanted, but for whatever reason has been withheld from me.

I want to be happy. I want to have joy. It just seems to come in very microscopic bursts and is not lasting. I hate where my blog has gone and wish that I had never started it to begin with. It's posts like this that I am sure why I have been deleted from others blogrolls. No one wants to listen to a whiner and complainer.

Happy 2011-the sky is falling, the sky IS falling.

More grandma joy.....



This is how I spend a few hours a few days each week. Isn't she a treasure? I can't kiss these cheeks enough!



Makayla got to sit in Grandpa Lee's new chair first. I think she approves.



Grandma Charmen is so happy to have gotten a new camera for Christmas so that she can post these smiles. Now she doesn't have to steal them. "Grandma, get that camera out of my face!"
