A trip to the hospital last week turned into a 3 day stay.  Not fun at all.  At least I am home now and I feel tons better.  Been walking 4x a week and starting next week, going to add water aerobics to my exercise routine.  I am determined to lose some of my "fluff" and so I am watching what I eat better, too.

The songs really do remember when.  I tend to block out the good that I have had in previous relationships but Matchbox 20's "Long Day" brought me back to a good time with person T and dancing around in his living room with his roommate A and his girlfriend.  So, there were good memories and good times, I just need to hold on to those and not think that every relationship I was ever in was a doomed event. 

Though the relationship I have now is by far the best one I have ever been in.  The other night, I was on the couch reading and he called me into the office where he had "Three Stones" by The Boondock Saints playing and he asked me to dance.  How romantic.  Not only is he romantic but practical, a good father to Austin and very supportive of me.  You can't get much better than that in my opinion.

"Lost" was pretty good last week.  I love seeing bad ass Kate fighting to find and get Jack back.  And "The L Word" ~ ahhh I am loving it.  I love Bette and Jodi together and Alice and Tasha.  There are just a lot of good storylines this season and this is my second favorite season next to season 1.  And Shotime greenlit a 5th season so YAY!

Going to post a poem I wrote entitled "Save It" :

Dry your eyes
The tears aren't real
You can no longer manipulate
The way that I feel

Quiet your voice
You portray the victim
Merely to get sympathy
They don't even know you've tricked them

Hush your thoughts
Sadly, you believe your lies
You brought this upon yourself
And I refuse to sympathize

No more bullshit 'I love yous'
Tired of your constant mind fuck
I chose to simply walk away
And at last, I feel unstuck

I also have been gardening!  I got some different flowers to plant and I potted them and they look great. It's really nice to get into something like gardening .. it's a great stress reliever. 

That's all I have for now, folks .... 'til the next haunt .....

Hi Hun! Sorry to hear that you've been in the hospital, but I'm glad to find that you're back home and feeling better.

I've cut out all the soda drinks from my diet and this was no easy task. I've gone into withdrawls a couple times lol Even today at lunch I almost thought about getting one to go with my sandwich. I'm hoping that by stopping with all the sodas it will help me lose a few extra pounds and ultimately make me feel better. Nothing was harder than when I was trying to quit smoking...ohhhh those were the days of agony lol

I'm so ready to get out into my flower garden but will have to wait a couple more weeks until I get a chance to really make some progress. I love the Spring!!

Take care girlie and have a spiffy rest of this ole Monday. I'll visit again soon.

So good talking with you earlier .. i am so glad your home and feeling better .. even though you ve been so busy today ... rememeber i loves ya !:)

Hey Renee, hope the hospital stint wasn't anything serious. Glad you are out now and doing ok. I know all about feeling fluffy LOL. I was reminded of it this morning when we had our first really warm spring day and I went looking for a pair of capris to put on, only to realize when I found them they no longer fit. Time to lace up the sneakers I guess! I gave up chocolate for lent but I don't think that is helping much. I need to be a LOT more active. Hoping to fit in some walks in the evening now that we have some more daylight.

That was really sweet of your son to call you his hero - you should be proud. Take care and give yourself a hug.

Love Laura
