Moving..

Если вы хотите , чтобы продолжить чтение моих сумасшедших историй жизни, пожалуйста, по электронной почте мне или оставьте комментарий, и я буду называть вам мой новый блог.

NO Takers? Ok I'll please myself.

On my last blog I asked for input regarding what to write about so that I can please or at least interest the masses. The response have been staggering. NONE...well except the one from Facebook... you know who you are Big D. So, I guess I am simply talking to myself with a few stop-on-by blog enthusiasts who read me now and then. I will continue what I have done this entire time and that is please myself with my writing. That seems to work, well for me anyway.   I am a writer not only of this blog but of books. I have finished my second poetry book Veneficus and got my proof copy yesterday. I am so excited. It looks great and I have hardly any changes to be made which means that I will be able to have it available for sale in the near future. Of course I shared the book with my sister who was here this weekend visiting. She laughed because there is a poem that was inspired by her from one of her many visits. It seems my sister did something to her feet awhile back and caused h...

Not such a Golden Girl

It has only been a week since I have moved into the new house and already I am laid up sick. This is great just when I need to be healthy and movable. But my symptoms are strange. It all started the day after last. I started getting tired...now I know that doesn't sound like much but it is strange when you get so tired you literally pass out. That's right, I didn't go to sleep or lay down and rest; I passed out. I have never done that and as if that wasn't enough I feel strange. I feel weak and just drained and then I am having bad back pain and my teeth hurt. It is odd. I am not sure what to do. I went to the doctor and she thinks I have a sinus infection but she also took some blood because I also came up with high blood pressure. Boy when I get sick I do it right.   I thought I was doing better but now the symptoms are coming back again. Now I get chest pains too...whoot! Joy. Now don't get me wrong, I don't think I am having a heart attack, well at least I h...

Meeting my not so smart neighbors

Well, now that I am settled enough to have a desk and my computer connected, I wanna take this opportunity to say that I meet a neighbor the first day that we were moving in, and well...judge for yourself. The story goes like this: Friday we moved in some boxes but I wanted to make sure the house was clean before we had the movers come on Saturday so I spend the better half of the day, cleaning the kitchen, doing floors and windows. I was dirty and smelled well...you know. Anywho, I was getting my vacuum cleaner out of the trunk of my car when a silver hatch back stopped and even backed up in front of me. I thought it was awesome that someone was already introducing themselves to me as my new neighbor and how friendly these people were; I should have reserved my thinking. It was a middle aged woman, a little older than me, white of course, and she started the conversation out like this: Neighbor : "Oh good I just caught you finishing a job...

Led to Leadville, Colorado

The other day I had a dream where I was high up in the mountains and close to the treelines. I woke up feeling like I needed to get out and get into the mountains. I don't know what possesed me to but I looked up the highest city in Colorado and came up with Leadville. At 10,200 ft above sea level I felt that I could do no better. So I packed up the family and we took the three hour trip into the mountains. It was AWESOME! The air was crisp and clean and the day was beautiful. When we got there I found out that they were having a festival. It was Boom Days in Leadville. How fun, we had no idea. I did look up Leadville but on Wikipedia not their office website. Of course, had I looked it up on their website I would have known about the festivites. There were streets blocked off and lots of tents full of neat things. There were bath salts, jewelery, hat, purses, games, toys, signs and of course lots and lots of food.  Having said that, some of the food they were selli...
