Deciphering Me...

The last couple of days have been like slow motion. Literally. I've never been someone to be constantly moving and on the go anyway, I'm far too lazy for that. Lots of things I know need doing are buzzing in my head, so my brain is always working, but my body? Nah. It goes at it's own pace.

Today it showed that more than ever, when I got to work and found myself so lightheaded and giddy I had to move around at the speed of a snail. Went into the nurses office and asked her to take my bp. My blood pressure was actually really low...MY blood pressure...that is SO unusual for me. My bp has always been on the high side and a few years ago it got dangerously high (205/130). I finally gave in and started taking medication for it. It's NEVER been as low as it is today.

I have no idea why. It's not like I've been sitting on my arse doing nothing is it? Anyway, the nurse involved the doctor, who halved my meds and we're going to see if that makes a difference. I hope so. I've got lots of things I want to do around here, and it's taken me this long to get motivated. That smidgeon of motivation will be obliterated if I have to do it in slow motion for fear of the giddiness completely taking over and having me faint. Nothing will get done. That'll piss me off no end.

My previous post was obviously a bit of a vent/rant *sheepish look*. Thank God for my blog I say...it's been great in the past for me to spit thoughts out on, and it's now obvious to all and sundry that I still use it as such. Thank you to those that have commented or emailed me. I appreciated hearing from you. I always appreciate hearing from you.

I realise that 95% of you may have no idea what I was going on about because I've chosen to keep my personal life and what's going on in it, to myself. Obviously I drank far too much, turned into a potty mouth and spewed forth. That's ok, I'm allowed, but I do try to keep it to a minimum when I have more control. I hate turning into a loose cannon.

I've decided to take a blogging vacation. Don't know for how long, but I know I could do with a break away and I also suspect it's been coming for a while. I will endeavour to keep up with what you're doing... as you know, I'm too nosey not to keep my hand in here somewhere. So I won't be disappearing completely...just taking the time out.

Have fun people, enjoy your lives and those that are privileged to be in it...oh, and blog about it. That way I can continue to share in some of those special moments too!

Until then...much love to all...*blows kiss*

*gasp* Who IS that masked font?

This far down the track, it's sometimes hard for me to remember where Dan and I came from. Not in the "Who am I?" or "What is my purpose on this earth?" kinda way you understand...but of how we met and how much that totally spontaneous meeting unexpectedly affected both our lives and the lives of those around us. It's been over 3 years since Dan stumbled across this blog, and almost 3 years since we actually met in person for coffee. Next February it will have been 3 years since I told him I was in love with him. Don't panic...this is not going to be a post filled with sunlight and rainbows, extolling the brilliance of the above-mentioned man and all he means to me. Would I do that to you? I mean to say...this is the first time I've put font to screen in over 4 months, do you really think I'd come back and get all gushy/mushy on you? Nah...that'd make even me wanna gag. The fact of the matter is...that it HAS been such a long time sinc

A Wandering Post

Hallo Everybardee! (that's my Sharon Osborne impersonation.) I'm listening to Lemar's "If There's Any Justice" while I'm sitting here wracking my brain as to what to write today. And this song coupled with the recent brain-hurty questions that are being flung at us via Lisa's blog have me wondering. How many people out there are sitting in unhappy partnerships/marriages out there? How many are bobbling along in their marriages, for fear of not wanting to be alone or for the sake of the children etc? I spent 15 years with my husband before I finally realised we just weren't the same people we used to be and no amount of compromise was going to get us through the rest of life together. I met him when I was 18...seperated from him at the age of 33...one a teenager, the other a much different woman and the mother of two boys. I don't regret this time of my life, not one iota...there's a lot of learning and growing to had in those 15 years. My

Sleep, Blog, Sleep, Blog, hmm

Working extra hours will of course take it's toll on my body...and to be honest, things are going fairly well in that respect...that was...until last night. Cos ya see, last night, I didn't go to bed at the usual time of around 1030ish. I sat here and read my entire blog history...and although that's not HUGE because I've only been blogging since the beginning of the year....that's still a fair amount of reading to get through. That, coupled with catching up on some of your blogs (didn't always comment on them, forgive me)...I ended up crawling into bed at 1.35am. 1.35AM!! I haven't stayed up that late since I first started playing backgammon on the MSN Zone (and then we're talking about 3 and 4am, I must've been nuts!). Now I know that 1.30 isn't an unusually late night for some of you...but for me? it's big these days...real big. So this morning (some of the only free time I have this week, I...am...knackered. Why do we do this to
