Poetic Dreams and nightmares. (Book) http://www.Writing.Com/main/books.php/item_id/1566790/action/archive Life has been...shit. It gets to the point where what else can you possibly say to express it? It's just plain old shit. I have been going to these counselling sessions that the mental health assessment team think would be a good idea. I think they are lame but I have to admit there has been some 'ole' self discovery happening during the...[Read Full Post] Sun, 11 Apr 2010 20:04:35 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/692903 The last six months have been hard to say the least. Depression, although I silently knew it was coming, crept up on me and has bitten me the hardest it ever has. I am no stranger to this illness, I have battled with it for as long as I can remember but at this present time it is the most severe it has ever been. After speaking to one of the psychi...[Read Full Post] Sat, 13 Mar 2010 04:45:10 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/690136 After eight looooong days my daughter, Jaide, has finally been released from hospital and I along with her. A general check-up at the doctors turned out to be anything but general. Jaide had been losing weight, a noticeable amount of weight, but all of my children had gone through this same phase and gained it back and then some after a short amount of time so I ...[Read Full Post] Wed, 10 Mar 2010 06:27:46 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/689811 On the 21st of February, I celebrated my 29th birthday. How I have reached this age so fast is beyond me! Nevertheless, I am not a fan of anything which has the number 9 associated with it, superstition and all, so it left me with no choice other than to think of a game plan. I thought, 30's could be cool. It is new territory and I have heard ...[Read Full Post] Fri, 26 Feb 2010 09:42:48 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/688718 I'm alive and on the road to recovery! Car accident almost killed me but I have more to write before I cross over. Fri, 12 Feb 2010 02:23:47 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/687246 It is so ridiculous the changes just one more addition can bring. Who would have thought that 4 children would be so much harder than three? Not me that's for sure. After dealing with identical twins it makes you feel invincible, like you can do anything, most probably because you have to do 'everything' but nevertheless it makes one feel c...[Read Full Post] Thu, 10 Dec 2009 06:15:05 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/679400 Jaide November ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** Above, is a picture of [Link To User demonic_soul] and I's first daughter. She is such an angel! It remains to be seen if she will be of the gothic variety LOL. She was such a good girl last night. Very easy to settle, and let mummy get a few hours of rest bef...[Read Full Post] Fri, 27 Nov 2009 20:22:39 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/677857 Finally my baby girl has arrived! My junior Gothic Angel has been named Jaide November and she arrived at 3:53 AM on the 24th of November. Australian time puts us a day ahead of majority of people so it would have been the 23rd- American time. My angel was a cute little bundle of 7 pound 3 ounces. My largest baby yet. She measured in at 48 centimetres in length and the delivery was...[Read Full Post] Thu, 26 Nov 2009 07:47:52 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/677700 I have had a lot on my mind lately and have been stretching my time to a point that sleep has not been allocated a position. Not that it matters, the insomnia during this pregnancy has been far worse than in any of my others. Naturally, idle time calls for idle thoughts. In regards to WDC, my mind has been lingering on the subject of reviewing. ...[Read Full Post] Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:07:50 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/677039 Today took a nice turn for a change. Usually the only turns my days take are ones of aggrivation, frustration and stress LOL. My sister recently brought her first house and invited us all over for lunch today. It was a nice switch because usually they are all at my place and I am the lucky one who gets left to clean their path of destruction when they ...[Read Full Post] Mon, 19 Oct 2009 07:06:59 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/672364 Let it be said that you should never allow your little sister to touch your prized computer! My sister came to stay with me for some of her school holidays and because she is about to start her year 10 certificate she asked if she could use my computer for some of her studies. Sure, why not? Of course you can, go right ahead... The dreaded and innevitable O.O ...[Read Full Post] Sun, 18 Oct 2009 02:43:14 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/672228 The last few days have been hectic to say the least. I am tired and beginning to run out of steam but I am quite impressed with some of the catch up I have managed to achieve. I made a large number of reviews off the Helping Heart Order Board, I made the required reviews needed to remove a customer off the Packages Soaring Your Way Board, I made som...[Read Full Post] Mon, 05 Oct 2009 03:35:33 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/670510 Michael took the kids and I on a much needed weekend holiday to a gorgeous beach house on the central coast in The Entrance. The weekend away was extended when the next morning, after our arrival, we received some bad news. Michael's mother called to break the news that his grandmother who had been battling Altzheimers, passed away in the early ...[Read Full Post] Sun, 04 Oct 2009 04:04:00 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/670384 Saturday was my eldest son's birthday and what a long day it was! All up there were 15 kids here plus family and I was run off my feet trying to keep up with everything. I have been resting for the last few days which has put me behind with all of my WDC responsibilities but I plan on catching up on all of that as soon as I feel capable to do so. The party itself we...[Read Full Post] Tue, 22 Sep 2009 21:55:53 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/668897 It has been so hard to keep my mind focused on just one thing lately. The change in season is bringing about the wretched Australian heat which is zapping all of my energy. The weather bureau predicts this will be the worst summer in Australian history and I am not looking forward to it at all. Heat and I do not mix. Maybe my prayers will be answered and someone will co...[Read Full Post] Tue, 15 Sep 2009 04:47:12 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/667807 REVIEWING: I say, why bother? I pour my heart and soul into reviewing others on this site. I literally torment my poor mind before I even consider typing my critique into the comment box and what for? I am not the best writer as I feel the writing journey is one which never ends as the artistic world is so vast but I know I am not the worst eith...[Read Full Post] Mon, 10 Aug 2009 10:03:14 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/662991 The weather has been so cold here! Not that I am complaining, I just thought I would mention it for all of those people who are melting in their summer heat, especially the people (you know who you are) who enjoyed torturing me during the Aussie summer. When it comes down to winter or summer the two most extreme of weather scales..I take winter any day. It is so much easier ...[Read Full Post] Sat, 04 Jul 2009 08:52:49 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/657686 All of these celebrity deaths have turned the world upside down. Poor Farrah Fawcett, what a trooper she was. Her courage to tape her battle with cancer and allow the world to see it, in an attempt to educate us all on what it is like to experience it, was nothing short of phenomenal. What courage she had. The death of Michael Jackson is beginning to become as bizarre ...[Read Full Post] Thu, 02 Jul 2009 07:22:32 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/657449 I am insanely thrilled at the moment. I had a doctors appointment today for a routine check up via ultrasound to be sure everything was going as it should be in the pregnancy. In the previous ultrasounds, the baby was not developed enough for the sex to be determined. FINALLY, today. I was far enough along for it to be determined and: I AM HAVING A BABY GIRL!!!!!! ...[Read Full Post] Thu, 25 Jun 2009 08:03:39 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/656108 Don't you just love kids? (sarcasm dripping from voice) I have been locked in conflict with my nine year old son, Shaine, all afternoon. The problem is that although he is nine he is under the impression that it translates to 19 years of age. He feels that with his new-found perspective on the world where he knows everything and all of society knows nothing...[Read Full Post] Wed, 24 Jun 2009 03:35:57 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/655932 What a day it has been! Today or rather from the turning of midnight, yesterday, the Helping Hearts birthday program was put into action as we all celebrated the birthday of [Link To User ldyphoenix] . I never run late for anything but of course I was late to kick off the celebrations and everything turned frantic from there. I got up, turned on the computer, logg...[Read Full Post] Sun, 21 Jun 2009 02:19:54 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/655500 I promised myself that I would use this journal as a means of getting out thoughts which I cannot form into a piece of Poetry or a short story. I vowed to write something, anything, each day to ensure I was writing SOMETHING! Already I have broken the promise and it has been a few days since I have visited these pages. Life at the moment has been o...[Read Full Post] Thu, 18 Jun 2009 01:17:01 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/655090 I have finally had somewhat of a break through! I have been nagged by a short story idea that is solid and have been slowly piecing it together. It will be at least a few days before it will reach a posting standard but after how long this writer's block has haunted me I am not complaining. LOL I have not had the urge to write any Poetry lately which is stran...[Read Full Post] Thu, 11 Jun 2009 09:04:08 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/654035 It is said patience is a virtue and if that is the case then it is one virtue I am definitely struggling with at the moment. I find my patience is being tested more and more lately and I know it is not being done deliberately which just angers me even more with the people who are doing it and myself for not being able to turn a blind eye. I can slo...[Read Full Post] Sat, 06 Jun 2009 05:51:32 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/653392 Sheesh, I have only just managed to recover from an illness which knocked me off my feet for three weeks and now I have the flu. I've been following the doctors orders of resting, avoiding any stress and taking a vitamin supplement to get my strength back from the illness which just passed but I can't seem to get cut a break lately. Once I ha...[Read Full Post] Fri, 05 Jun 2009 06:56:25 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/653276 My mind has been thinking on so many different subjects at one time that I am not able to have one clear thought. Admittedly, I am playing 3 weeks+ worth of catch up which is not helping but this has been happening for some time now. When it comes to matters of my Helping Heart group, this seems to be the one area I am able to dedicate myself to comple...[Read Full Post] Thu, 04 Jun 2009 06:06:52 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/653122 I am completely blown away by how many promotions have taken place in my two and a half week absence! Way to go to all recipients. I think the promotion idea is a fabulous way for WDC to recognize the effort, skills, talent and dedication of certain members. When I was promoted to a preferred author some time ago it gave me such a confidence boost and ...[Read Full Post] Wed, 03 Jun 2009 09:01:11 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/652896 It seems my pen has dried up and my thoughts are not morphing into anything substantial that can be sculpted into something I would deem as 'readable material'. Whilst on this dry spell I have decided to create this journal in an attempt to at least keep my thoughts churning and my restless mind active. Hopefully somewhere in these entries I will find the ki...[Read Full Post] Tue, 02 Jun 2009 06:42:00 EDT http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/652746
