Oh what a beautiful morning...

Yes, I love my dog...Kenny and I woke up at 5am, grabbed some coffee and took the dog to the playground. It's the small things in life, I swear that make me happy. And that's really all I have to write today...Have a great day everyone...

Happy Father's Day!!!

Here is too family, good friends and a great day. I removed the recliner from Kenny's bottom, detached the remote from his hands and drug him to a father's day cook-out. That is him in the pool. A cook and his wife that I used to work for invited us over and we had such a good time. We need to get out more. Especially my other half. Today was the first day he swam in a couple years...Good company and good food and plenty of sunshine. All the makings of a perfect day. We have actually had sex two days in a row...I am still in shock...For those of you who have been married forever, it is a fantastic feeling to know that the lust and passion is still there. I have a little bit of a glow and it isn't from all that sunshine..:) I am keeping my fingers crossed that this upward arc in our relationship continues...Sometimes people get in a mode (rut) and it is hard to change what you are comfortable with, even if it isn't what is best for you.

I hope all you fathers out there had a great day!!!

Much Love...Lori

Daily Babblings...

Well I have eliminated all psychotropic meds from my daily regimen. The only one I continue to take daily is the Xanax. But the Effexors and meds for my ADD, I totally stopped. My mind feels better than it has in years...Kenny said it has been years since he has seen me this happy, exact quote..."You stopped being such a bitch"...This is my year to change my life in as many positive way as humanly possible. The times they are a changin' and so am I. Going to a Father's Day cook out tomorrow...steamed crabs, corn on the cob, and hamburgers and hot dogs and swimming. We need to get out. For all of you folks who don't appreciate a steamed crab, you don't know what the hell you are missing. The number one delicacy. I will eat plenty for everyone. OH YEAH...for all of you who are on pysch meds...guess what...since stopping, my sex drive is BACK...that was an excellent present for Father's Day.. I am like a pit bull strapped to his chest. He is loving it....It's been awhile....It's all coming together slowly but surely. Life is good today....Baby steps people...those are the only ones that seem to work...and that's ok..

Sunshine on my shoulders

Decided to go out and heal my mind and spirit by a good bake in the sun...when you are flat on your back and the sun beats down on your bones, especially the tired ones, you can feel the repair. I get so caught up in what I think must be done, daily pressures, demands, that I forgot how good it feels to lay and bake, even the sweat feels healthy. The head is uncluttered when I am getting braised. God knows, my mind is fried (j/k sorta) Sanity is relative I have learned. Some of the most demented people I have spent time with have spouted some of the sagest pieces of advice to me. Go figure....
I think I am going to turn off this old thing and go back out and bake some more...

Peace...Lori

just a comment

Let the madness ensue

CYPRESS, Calif. — Violence broke out at the gas pumps in Orange County. Police say a La Palma doctor waiting in line to buy gas at the Costco warehouse store in Cypress grabbed a tire iron and confronted a motorist who cut into the line.

Sgt. Tom Bruce said the doctor was arrested and booked for investigation of brandishing a deadly weapon in a rude, angry or threatening manner, a misdemeanor.

Witnesses told police the doctor was in line at the pumps Monday evening when another vehicle cut in front of him. When the doctor confronted the motorist with a tire iron, the other driver locked himself in his car and called police.

I am not fixated on gas, but these stories just catch my eye. I think we will be seeing more and more articles like this, with a gradual progression of more violence. By the way...I won the battle on behalf of mom. They split the back bill over 12 months and tacked it onto the current one. If you call that winning. It took 3 hours of begging and pleading on the phone. The first hour was spent trying to speak to a real human, not an automated voice. I just paid off my own judgment with them...they are brutal. The issue in my state is that they just increased our bill by almost 75 percent in one year. Sorry folks, that is fucked up. Where are the people who represent me and my neighbors? The state is going to force people to start resorting to alternate energy plans..such as...breaking out that extra long orange extension cord and "borrowing" from our neighbors...just kidding I swear.... I have seen it done tho...and that's all I am saying about that...

Peace....Lori
