It feels like I put in a full week already. I doubled checked the calendar and sure enough it is only Tuesday. The weather has been great, and my windows have been open pretty much since Saturday. Thank God! I can only imagine if the weather was crappy, my ass would really be dragging. I got home from work yesterday and I couldn't keep my eyes open. My head felt like it weighed 100 pounds. I went and laid down and before I knew it the clock said it was 8:15. Oh great! I will be up all night. I went to bed about 12:30 and forced myself to stay there. Tossing and turning. I think I got into a deep drooling sleep just as my alarm went off. Always the way, isn't it? It was a bit tough getting moving, but I did. I think it was about 3 this afternoon when it hit me. I wanted to just lay down. LOL No Jan, I did not hit the couch in the ladies room. I grabbed a cup of coffee and a chocolate bar. Can you say rush? LOL It got me through the day and I made myself stay awake until I got my second wind. I know I was so tired because of the long emotional weekend, but I will be back on track now. I should have no problem falling asleep tonight.
I want to clarify that my earlier post is not about anyone. It was pretty much a general statement about life. I suppose at one time or another we can all fall into that trap, but some stay there. Never doing anything to change it or them. I hope no one takes it personal, it was not my intent. I was just venting a bit about several different things that have happened over the past couple of days. Nothing specific, just this and that....... I'd bore the hell out of you if I went in to it, but I am good. :)
No, you are not imagining things. I've done more of the tile blinkies. I know some are sick of seeing them, ummmmmm....... can I say too bad? LOL I absolutely love the effect and playing around with different graphics and accents. I'll get tired of them soon enough :::grin::: Just remember when you snag to make sure you save them as .gif files. Resizing can distort and make the animation disappear. If you need help let me know I will gladly assist you, I'd appreciate you asking...........
Oh my... the news is on as I write this and they just did a story on the most tragic event. A young mother was leaving the house thinking her children were all tucked safe inside. She backed out of her driveway only to realize they were not and she ran over her 1 year old. The child did not make it. I felt my heart stop and tears came to my eyes. I can't even imagine what that poor woman is going through. We are all enjoying the nice weather, children included. Take the extra time to walk around your car to make sure. A small child on a bike will not be visible in the rearview mirror.
I am off to bed. Have a great hump day. And again, I'm ok and my entry was not directed at anyone.
Hugs

OMG!!! How horrible!!!!!! I can only imagine...... Tawnya
Thanks for the clarification and the email. I am so glad you are good and content. A vent is good once in awhile. It was a deep entry and made me think a great deal. As for the graphics, you are an expert at what you do, keep it up. I've been doing a bit of surfing through journals and I am always seeing your graphics. Even though you may not know it or even realize, so many come to you for their decorations. What a tribute to you and your talent. Does everyone tell you when they take something? Curious about how that works. Are there rules? How sad for that mother, her pain and sorrow must be overwhelming.
It's never a bad thing to cut loose now and then, it's kinda part of what having a Journal is about. Your friends will never take offense, and I don't read between the lines. I'm confident that if there were a problem, you'd address it directly, so that keeps things nice :)
Sleep deprivation oh the memories lol when I worked I worked mainly nights 12hr waking shifts often extended to 13 if one of our ressies passed in the night. 3am is a great time for chocolate lol.

I love the curitanand breeze blowing thru the window that is a cool effect. we been getting rain each day and for the next couple of days but its been warm and we have had periods of sun.

I would just wnat to die I tell you. that would just kill me. how did the baby get out there????? that is so upsetting. she must be beside her self

The window and the curtain blowing. That graphic is going to strike a deep chord in someone's soul. I think it could speak of loss, emptiness. Nice. Be back when I can spend more time to catch up on your life! Gerry
