Only drugs and nothing more....

Once upon a mid-day dreary, while I lay here weak and weary. Over many blankets I had let fallen to the floor. While I laid down nearly napping suddenly there came a tapping, tapping at my bedroom door. Tis some visitor rapping at my bedroom door, not just this but something more.
Ah distinctly I remember it was in bleak November and each separate dying feeling keeps my spirits on the floor. Eagerly I wished my sorrow would not linger on tomorrow and from my purse surcrease my sorrow, sorrow for my local drug store. For the 24 hour opened, heroic, local, fully stocked pharmaceutical store. Only this and nothing more.
And the sulky, sad, uncertain rustling of my open curtain
Chilled me, filled me with uncertain feeling never felt before
So that now to still the beating of my heart I stood repeating
Tis some new prescription I am needing
Some new antibiotics I am needing
keeping me from falling on the floor
Only drugs and nothing more.
Presently my flu grows stronger, hesitating now no longer
'Virus' said I 'Flu it's your absence I implore'
The fact is I was happy, and so healthy, romantic, sappy
and so rudely you came banging, banging on my immunity's door
That I was sure that I knew that you were smacking on my body's door.
I need drugs and nothing more.
Back into the bedroom, hurting, my heartburn inside of me burning
soon I slipped into the my sheets returning
returning to my pillow's soft and ample core
For the cool and wonderful feeling
of my bedroom I adore
Feeling better I am sure
I get a little slap happy when I get sick so I thought this little ditty would cheer me up or at least make me feel a little better. I am on the tail end of the flu but I am still weak and tired. It's an odd feeling. I don't "feel" sick but I don't have enough energy to go to the store. I use it all up through the day for restroom breaks and showers to wash off the virus scum I feel all around me. I am hoping to feel my old self at least by Friday. This sickness is going into its fourth week. I managed to keep myself healthy and out of the doctor's office for six months...this is an FYI for all of you out there who think that I am consistently sick. I will keep you posted on my healing process.

16 days later...

Well, it's been sixteen days since my last post and well I can honestly say that I am totally disappointed. I thought that I would see some sort of growth but I haven't. What's worse is that my nails are so thin and weak that I had to actually cut some of my nails because they tore. Not because they grew. They were weak to begin with but at least they feel a little better. I mean I can now take a shower and the hot water doesn't hurt my fingernails. I am also a bit perplexed at the my second to the last finger. If you look close you can see the part of the nail that had solar on it and the amount of growth but my nail never got longer and this is not one of the one's that I had to trim. Things that make you go hummmm.  So here are my nails. I have been using the Nail-Aid Keratin for 16 days. It says 3 days growth but in three days I saw no growth. I have been receiving e-mails and comments suggesting that I use the O.P.I. Nail Strengthening but I refuse. ...

Change of the guard, nail style

I have had the flu for the past week which offered me the opportunity to spend time with my nails. Turn a negative into a positive, right? Well, after my last post I thought about the products that I was using to try to get my nails to grow.  My Pinterest account  Jennipher Dallas  has been getting a lot of "likes" and repins. My board 'Nails I wish I had'   has especially been getting a lot of attention. One picture in particular has had over 300 likes/repins since my last blog. The picture is of the OPI Nail Envy Nail Strengthener. I did look up OPI and although they do not do animal testing but there is formaldehyde in it.  When you're sick you think about how you got sick and what you need to do to get better. So this got me thinking about the stuff in the products that I use. Formaldehyde has been linked with Cancer . Now, I'm not going to go into to all that stuff and preach about it. Everyone has to make their own decisions. But I decided t...

Dilemma-ethical-uh?

If you google the word dilemma it comes up with the following definition: "A situation in which a difficult choice has to be made between two or more alternatives, especially equally undesirable ones." Then goes on to give synonyms like quandary, predicament and vicious circle.  *Sigh* Well, wonders never cease in my world and for the sake of my sanity I hope my five whole readers understand what I am about to spill. Everyone has someone in their family that does not sit right with them (I'm trying to be ambiguous here for a reason). I am no different. I have no real family anymore. Since my father died almost two months ago, I have NO family anymore. Sure, I have a sibling, who is a complete and utter moron. This person is a run away from responsibility, self-centered individual who I have tried to help throughout the years. The other person is a selfish, self-centered, manipulative, gas bag who thinks the world revolves around them and goes out the ...
