Alittle Random

Greetings and Salutations,
     I'm sad. Again. On the other hand I am trying to fight it hard. I am happy to be blogging. I haven't listened to my music in quite some time. I have a candle lit. I miss my mom. Something terrible. The 14th is her birthday. She would have been 75. I keep hanging on. I keep praying for strength. For time to pass and weaken my sadness. Overall this weekend I'd give myself a D-. Got pissed last night and took a chunk out of my hardwood floor while smashing my alarm clock. Guess my hardwood isn't so hard after all. Oh well. Keep Calm and Polyurethane On :)
     I have got to get some sleep tonight so I can get physical in the morning. I want to swim. I want to feel better and I know exercise will do that for me. I need to get back into the acupuncture chair. Can't tell you how much that helps too. Last night my meltdown costed me precious time so when I got up this morning I wasn't in the mood for shit. Just sleep. Hit the snooze a million times. Oh well, as I always say-- tomorrow. Tomorrow is another day. Try and try again I will.
     I have been watching some really cool documentaries on Netflix. Do you remember the lady that sued McDonalds for hot coffee in 1994? Did you know that she got 3rd degree burns that required skin grafts? (I didn't at the time) I saw the pictures. Holly crap is about all I can say. Do you know that the family first contacted McDonalds only to ask for payment of medical bills that at the time were about $10,000 and McD's offered $800? That between 1982 and 1994 there were 700 complaints of burns from their coffee? The name of the documentary is Hot Coffee. Its very interesting. Goes into torts and tort reform. Super educational. Reminds me that when we read what ever it is that we do, most likely we don't know the whole story.
     I'm amazed I still don't miss cable. Only a few times a month when you want background noise when you are futzing around the house. I try to do that with Netflix, but I keep choosing great flicks and I get distracted anyway LOL. I guess I have to admit I have filled in some of that "empty time" with too much time on the internet but overall I think I do pretty good. I need to shift my night time activity from less internet to learning to sew or painting. An alternative to concentrate on. I am thinking about saving for a sewing machine and painting supplies. Kinda my own party and paint at home.
     I think I will get off here and practice painting my face incase I decide to go out for Halloween. I haven't dressed up in forever and I want to do a Sugar Skull face this year. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uxhER5cnwrE I'll take pictures of my own if I do it and see how it turns out. Hope you are all well and hope I have better inspiration next week for something meatier than my belly aching. I'm rolling with it and here is to determination. What is the hip way to post that these days #determination or something like that LOL. If I have nothing else in life I have lots of that.

Tootles :)
