Clean Up In Aisle Whichever


Been awhile since I have been here. Spectacular meltdown to clean up after and they even changed the format of blogger use while I was gone. Oh my, more stuff to relearn. I wonder, do you suppose it was some sort of conspiracy? Totally just kidding:)

Would you believe this blog showed page views of 16,265 for September if I read the layout correctly? I hope that people found something worthwhile. Mental illness can be a real bitch sometimes even when it is managed. Left untended it can turn into a nightmare that can be very difficult to wake from.

I have a friend who says, "That which didn't kill you probably wishes it had." I don't know why but that makes me chuckle every time I think of it.
This blog was originally about horse rescue and a whole lot of drama. I am not quite sure where we will go from here, if anywhere.

The horses went to live with a hay farmer. Lucky them and blessed me considering our state is in a drought. As some of you know, my significant other passed away mid-February, unbeknownst to me he had asked his friend the hay farmer to please look out for me if anything ever happened to him.

I am beyond grateful... It is strange to me how something that had been such a huge part of my life, plans, and dreams, could become so much less so. I still love horses but I am stunned at the lengths we went to in caring for them. I won't lie I wish I had some of that money back.

I am still working at putting the pieces of my somewhat shattered life back together, so, I imagine, horses will be taking a backseat to all of that for some time to come. And to be honest I always found much of the horse rescue drama to have very little to do with actual horse rescue so my interest in much of that has definitely waned.

I am also not certain that I was as witty, timely, or pithy, as, I may have deluded myself into thinking that I was. No, I had my moments in funny and I supported fhotd long enough to prove it.lol
That said, I don't know that I have anything left that is internet world share worthy.

I still believe the world would be a much better place if people were nicer. Kindness isn't a disease to be greeted like pancreatic cancer. I wish forgiveness, both the giving and the receiving, came easier, and wouldn't it be lovely if redemption could be purchased at the store? There I go dreaming again.

Welcome back, Funny Lady! Life's been a tough bastard to you lately--and my condolences on the death of your SO, that's never ever easy.

You should keep blogging, even without horses. It's your thought processes that are fascinating, whether you're talking about horses or handsaws.

Well hello ladies, it has been a while hasn't it. Glad to see you are both still here! Now if phaedra and a few others were to show up it would be like old home week.
WB funny and fascinating? Wow..and thanks! I will think on the blogging as I seem to be without a theme.
Kestrel no it ain't easy or cheap but I do kind of enjoy finally coming into contact with some providers who actually seem to get me. My diagnosis puts me into the 1% of the world so I guess I really am special.lol

Hey--we've got a whole Presidential election thing going on, we've got Romney's calling us all the 47% of moochers and people he doesn't care about, we've got Obama blazing around the nation but honestly I don't have a lot more faith in him. We've got... cats. Religion. Quantum mechanics. Shit, woman, if you can't find something to write about, y'all need to smack yourself upside the head once or twicet. (As my late Grandma used to say.)

Romney is an arrogant prick, I can't see him playing well with others, I think that not unlike me his diplomacy skills are not up to the job. That said,have you ever seen someone so committed to being a puppet figurehead? I mean besides everyone who has ever run for President before him.
Obama? I have seen more black and white pets named Obama in the last 4 years. Personally I could care less about his color, while still being glad that a black man finally made it into The White House to do something beyond fix the plumbing. His health care plans scare me as do most of his first campaign promises. Wouldn't it be lovely if we had a president that people felt good about voting for?
Cats are cool. Religion? Did you really invite/challenge ME to write about religion? Oh wow!
Quantum mechanics? Well Dorothy it goes like this, first, you need a special pair of shoes.lol And your Grandma sounds very wise indeed.
Good to see you CnJ!!
