LOL yup

Usually around this time of year its not only a heck of alot colder here, but there always seems to be tons of snow on the ground. Funny thing is that today there is NO snow on the ground and is actually in the pluses for temperature so thats nothing to sneeze at

hello all. i hope everyone is doing well. I'm not on much; I've been releasing a lot of fear and feelings of trepidation. I was thinking today, if this is ever overwith, I wouldn't be surprised if I wept for a month. Everything is done in steps.

take care.

I think that tears are a release of energy that is needed when the soul swells up with so much emotion that the body cannot contain it... and so the body weeps in relief.

** It was better said by Nicholas Cage in the movie "City of Angels" but I cant remember enough of movie lines to quote them. No matter if they are from Happy or Hurt emotions, tears are still a natural mental and physical release.

I hope everyone is hanging in there today, yesterdat was rough for me. I was a wreck by last night, but today is another day.

I went to Mass today, and stayed for a while afterwards. I like to sit in silence and pray/meditate. Lately I have been feeling a bit overwhelmed. I am having restrictions put on my driver's license because of the glaucoma. My big toe appears normal yet it feels like I have an ingrown toenail. It is diabetic neuropathy. The medicine I take for the pain isn't helping. I have been struggling to loose weight, and am terrified that I am going to loose my big toe. Slowly I am loosing my independence. It doesn't bother me as it does my elderly parents. They are deadly afaid that I am going to ask them for money. How sad is that?! Sheesh.

Today is enough for me. I am happy to be here, and alive.

Andrew, I am so sorry this is happening.

Are you 100% sure you don't have an ingrown toenail? My podiatrist said he cut all mine out, but it was still hurting and I found a huge ingrown shard of nail still in there. I have felt soooooo much ebtter since.

I am not religious, but I do find a cathedral one of most peaceful places to be.

Sorry your Dad is being such a jerk, he sounds singularly un-helpful. GRRRRR.
