Hello everyone! I hope you've all had a marvelous few days. Me? Not so much. I'm doing my best, but I'm covered in bruises and there are many more that have yet to surface. I can feel them. Not fun. 😦 While trying to pack and get my shit together (Waste Management must hate me … Continue reading 100% Sore

2015-10-11 Miss Poison Life, Musings, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Writing Israel, Life, Musings, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Writing

This weekend has blown by. I've done so much in the last few days that I am struggling to move. The only thing that doesn't hurt is my hair. 😦 My new mattress was delivered earlier in the evening. The irony that I'll only get to sleep on it for the next three weeks is … Continue reading Time Is A Fickle Thing

What profound, intelligent things can I say today? I won't give myself that much credit as my thoughts are scattered at the moment, but hey, it has been known to happen. 😉 On occasion, I wish people wouldn't give me such rich material and expect me not to write about it (That's okay, the status … Continue reading Friday Feelings

This was the question I posed to one of my best friends the other morning when a friend said something stupid and I responded.

Earlier this year, I accepted a new client who had never been edited before. From the start, there were problems. She couldn't follow the payment plan, which was bi-weekly. I gave her multiple opportunities to "get it right" before she did, but I didn't start working until she paid in full. Call me crazy, but … Continue reading Do You Remember?

I Refuse To Change

After taking a couple of days to rest from overdoing it, I am back on my grind today. While going through a box that I never unpacked from my original move (because nothing inside it was overly important), I found a ton of missing CD's. I reorganized that box for its intended purpose, took the … Continue reading I Refuse To Change

Another night of barely present sleep has me sitting here stressed. I should be boxing things up in my bathroom or going through my closet, but it's cold, even with the heat on, the wind is insane, and I think I have to give myself a break today. From the neck down, everything hurts. If … Continue reading It’s Normal And It’s Okay

All I Want Is A Nap…For Now

2015-10-03 Miss Poison Emotional Pain, Pieces Of Me, Writing Emotional Pain, October, Pieces Of Me, Poison In Lethal Doses, Writing

I packed for nearly eleven hours today. That's a record for me with Fibromyalgia, because the last time I had to make a big move, I flat-out shut down emotionally (and physically) and hired a moving company. This time, I am doing every damn thing by myself. You know where you stand with your friends … Continue reading All I Want Is A Nap…For Now
