Its odd how some one can come back into your life- from the past, and it can make you feel more complete.  It also is worth noting the flipside- when their reappearance back into your life- is  the lowpoint of your year. Such is the case with some one who came back into my familys life with only deception, anger, and no intention to stick around.  I cant and wont give too many details, but I will say that Im glad that this person reminded me that there is evil out there in the world. Im greatful that this person saw fit to act in such a betrayal and callus way- that I am more on gaurd than ever, and even closer to the people in my family because of it. there are some people that should have just stayed a memory.
Im greatful that  is now the case again.
Thanks...

Well.. I woke up on Friday- feeling kinda blah. Not just because another year had come and gone, but because I had this hacking cough, and was a little achy.
Fast forward to 10 pm Friday night... 103 temp, sore throat, and the realization that i would be best buds with my couch, and  sofa chair so i could catch 10 - 15 min. of rest in bt my coughing fits.
Happy Birthday to me- The Good Ole' Flu has me down for the count currently.
In a fit of false energy, I thought I would reach out to those that are sufferin' for the
insane Flu bug.  We must unite!
ok.. maybe the robatussin and the temp spike has taken over.
Back to sit on the couch and slap some more Vicks on.
hey-- dont you think they should make and ACTIVE-ON for  the FLU!!
 Flu-ON.. applied directly to your head, neck, shoulders,back, arms, legs, eye lids,  and where ever else that is a hurtin' 
Id go get some..

Thankful.  This year has been a wild ride. Thinking back to last year and the wings set in motion after the passing of my high school Theatre Director- Carol Drennan.   And the arrival of an old family member back on the scene, that unfortunetly brought about some rehashing of old wounds, and the realization that we all travel down our own road.  Its hard to let someone back in that decieved you, and even harder to even want that person around you.. period.
But Im reminded of all the times I mess up, and how there is only One person I can count on to take me back.  And for that I am thankful.
What ever your holiday plans on- I pray that you  get to spend it with people that you love, that love you back, and at the very least, they challenge you to treat others as you would like to be treated.
Happy ThanksGiving.
Peace,
