This is my blog - I liked the clever title - since my Judaism is a very important part of my life, and though I have changed how I practice it over the years, my belief in God is a major facet of my life. This blog is just about me - and the ways that I feel - they are not necessarily religious in nature - I would love it if you would peruse my blog.

| Sorry I have not written - I have been busy at work = and.... I am even behind in my FOP homework, but... The weather on the East Coast is hot, humid and uncomfortable, but I have been fortunate to have air conditioning in all of my indoor venues - will catch up more tomorrow - hopefully |

| I have not written in a few days - things are getting better - I was very anxious for a few days - but that seems to be subsiding - at least for now - I get frustrated with myself when my poetry is not up to par - but.... I am learning a lot - and I have advised the powers that be that I want to take more courses in the academy during the next term. I am sad that my rising star sponsor will be taking some time off from the site - but I know that she needs to take care of herself and her health and I hope that she gets the proper medical help that she requires. She has been great to me - so inordinately inspirational - I am also so grateful to the teachers in the academy who have helped me with my work - I think we appreciate our education when we are adults and our families do not force us to study - I love this site - and have been inspired by so many of the writers whose work I have read and who have read and commented on my work. My writing has given me some peace of mind - something that I have not had for a long time. |

I have not written in some time - and I miss when I do not get computer contact for a few days - things have been going just fine - so I suppose - I always wait for the other shoe to drop - but I do not think it will - my social workers say I am doing good - why do I have to have anxiety attacks about everything - I guess I am not any different than anybody else - people have ups and downs as the ways of life deal with them - I am up to a difficult part in the poetry class - and that is frustrating - but I guess I would not have taken the fundamentals course unless there was stuff that I needed to learn - but still....
I am hoping to take more courses after this course ends, so...I am looking forward to that - learning on line has been very fruitious to me - better than the face to face class I had planned on taking prior to my fall.
To be continued - I have just been called into a meeting - which I have just been told, I am leading. |

| I have some extra time after work where I am just hanging out and on the site - my unit is closed, but there is another unit where there are open computers, so I am having some fun - I have finally had a chance to review a lot of stuff - and I have entered some new stuff - I am struggling a little with my poetry class - but if it was not a struggle - why would I be taking the course - I want to learn all that there is to learn about poetry - I would like to get my stuff published, but I do not know if I will be able to - I am on a list for an organization called Lulu - so I have to look more into it. |

| I have not written in a really long time = but I am doing OK - the weekend was nice; had a barbecue and went to some movies with my friend - actually we watched some on cable and then went to see a featured film in the theatre - it is so expensive to do that though - my star sponsor has read a lot of my work and it has helped my ego tremendously - I am so grateful for that and for this site - I am learning so much from all of it - and my writing has indeed become my salvation. |

| I felt like writing to just check in - I am having a bit of a rough day - work is not hard - but it is a bit overwhelming - I get so frustrated that I am at a place that I should have been at 25 years ago - and I feel like because of my borderline personality disorder, I have missed out on so much in my life - I know that I should reflect on the good in my life - because I am really doing good - my writing is good, I have a good relationship with my best friend - it is more than that, but less than a boyfriend - so it is perfect - I am feeling healthy - my walking is improving - so why I am so cranky? |
| |
| I really have not written in a long time - I have been so swamped with work - and I have just started physical therapy on an out patient basis - so..... but the really good news is I have been selected as a rising star - I can not believe it - it is so exciting - I sent my stuff to be rated - and it got good reviews - so I thank this program soooo much for all that it has given me. |

| I have not written in a while - have not had computer access for a few days - and today I was super busy at work - but that is good - I like being busy at work - it keeps me occupied - this weekend I was busy too - I went with my best friend - and we saw some really great movies on cable- I am weird - but I feel why should you go to the movies and spend almost 12 dollars - that is what it costs in New York - when you can see loads of stuff on cable |

| I have not posted in a while - I am really busy at work = but I am trying to squeeze in some reviewing - I am seeing some great stuff - and I am sending my stuff out to different reviewing forums - my stuff is getting much better - the class that I am taking is hard - but I am learning a lot - I am getting a lot of pleasure from my works - and I am going to keep on penning more - would love for you to all visit my port and see some of my works. |

Sorry that I have not posted in a while = have not had the computer availability for a few days - anyway - my weekend was OK - I went to my best friend (a/k/a the subject of many of my poems) art show = he is an accomplished artist and he was showing some of his works at a group show - I had missed his previous show because it was while I was in the hospital - so this was really important to me - my sister joined me - and afterwards we went to dinner and celebrated his birthday - it was really nice - Saturday, which was his real birthday - I took him out to dinner again, but less expensively - and then we just hung out and watched some fun cable movies. A good relaxing way to spend some free time.
He has been very inspirational to me in terms of my poetry - I watch how dedicated he is to his art and it has given me a boost in terms of my poetry - and in some ways I have been helpful to him in terms of working on his art -
But I am still frustrated - I have this assignment for my Fundamentals in Poetry class - and I am having a lot of trouble with it - it is about rhyming and applying certain sequences to create a poem. I do not know why I am having so much difficulty with it - maybe because my specialty is prose. But I need to learn new things - and I am frustrated - I want to be a great poet - maybe it is because I am finally getting acknowledged and getting credit for stuff - and it is bringing up all of of my old tapes - the conventional dysfunctional family stuff - and that aggravates me - I am a good poet - and I do not have to be Elizabeth Barrett Browning - I can be OK and be Judy. |
