The more things change the more they stay the same

It has been more than one year since I updated this blog. Most of it has to do with my utilizing Facebook, but also, nothing has really changed. How boring. I noticed my story is on many Asian websites. Fortunately or unfortunately, I cannot read them. I hope you all have a happy new year. Mine promises more of the same.

Horton Hears a Who

I just bought the pictured stuffed animal at Macy's. It brings me some happiness and I almost brought it with me on my errands today. Pathetic, I know.

I SHould Have Posted this Many Months Ago

I broke my Santa Coookie Jar

Now Christmas is done for me

Things I Miss About Christmas

1,) waiting to see what Santa put in my stocking, I especially liked the Lifesaver storybook.
2.) Seeing if Santa ate any of our cookies
3. ) Trimming the tree with my Grandparents and spending the subsequent weekend with them.
4,) Playing poker
5.) Opening gifts
6.) eating dinner and christmas cookies, expecially peanut butter blossoms...hint hint.
7.) Those cool Advent calenders that gives you a treat for each window you open.

Where is the Christmas Spirit?

My soul really needs the Christmas spirit back which has been lacking for many years. I don't have the wherewithal to do anything. My eating disorder steals all my time. I don't Even time to find my scattered decorations between my many storage lockers and my grandmother's basement. Please help me recapture the magic of Christmas.

So Much to Say

Sorry I haven't updated...like forever. But I just have so much to post about that I don't know where to start. So I will not say anything for now. But I will post again once I get my thoughts in order. In the meantime, thank you to all who continue to send me support.

I'm Still Here

Just haven't updated my blog for awhile. I have been looking for a job, doing lunches with my grandma, and seeing a lot of movies. I really need a job though, although I know this is a difficult time in the workforce. Thanks for all of your care and support.

Last Day at Stat Fair

Who wants to hang with me for awhile tomorrow at the Fair.

37 Years Young

Yesterday was my birthday and my family so graciously took me to a very nice restaurant La Belle Vie for dinner. I also received many birthday greetings from well-wishers. Thank you to everyone who though of me on this very special day. Most people didn't think I would survive this long. But here I am and I look forward to my next birthday. I hope this year will be better than teh last one which was the most difficult in my life.

As Judge Judy Would Say.....

Got a job? Get one. Right now I am looking for a part-time job to help pay the bills, yet maintain my social security benefits. However, it seems like no one wants to hire me, presumably based upon my appearance. I am more than qualified to be a cashier or a teller, two positions for which I was recently rejected. Any ideas?

Is This Asking Too Much?

I want someone to come over and give me a hug.

Is This Asking Too Much?

Always Remain Hopeful

Today was a good day. I went to breakfast with my friend Perry. Then I went to see the movie, "Brideshead Revisited". I also found out that for my mom's birthday, I will finally see my brother and sister-in-law with whom I have been estranged for more than two years. I will also see my two beloved nieces-one I haven't seen for two years and the other I haven't met at all. This is one very important thing I want to take care before it becomes too late.

My birthday is coming up August 23rd and I want to go to La Belle Vie restaurant in Minneapolis. However, I think it might be a little pricey when someone else is paying. Any other ideas from the Minnesota readers. Actually, seeing my brother, sister-in-law, and two nieces will be the best gift I for which I could hope.

I am also looking forward to the Minnesota State Fair.

I Really Wish...

that I could finish my book. I think it would help so many people.

I Really Wish...

Eating Disorder Thought for the Day

I will use today's suffering in a way that will make me stronger and more compassionate.

Son of Ranbow

I saw this movie today at the dollar theater. It was a good movie. I also went to a couple of antique shops and saw much that I wanted to buy. However, I exercised some restraint and didn't buy anything. I plan on going back. The lunchboxes and other retro, kitschy stuff caught my eye.

Still Looking.....

I am still looking for a date to go to Valley Fair...anyone?

Lawrence Welk

I'm watching Lawrence Welk and I can't change the channel.

Red Lobster II

My grandmother, aunt and I dined at Red Lobster again. Our waiter was very nice, accommodating, and cute. The old Jeremy would have slipped him my number. The new Jeremy hasn't been with someone in almost 4 years.

Ghost Writer

Any writer out there interested in collaborating on my book with me?

Wiped Out

I haven't been sleeping very well since I've been at home, although it has been getting better. I also had a medical procedure yesterday that really wiped me out. Today I am taking it easy I went to the grocery store and checked out the Uptown Art Fair for a very brief moment. It was too hot to linger. The only thing I bought was kettle corn and snagged a bunch of organic samples and coupons that were being distributed

Saturday's Thought for the Day

I will pay close attention to today's special moments and learn from them.

Shasta

Does anyone know where I can buy those little 8 ounce cans of Shasta. I cannot find them anywhere. As a matter of fact, I can't find any Shasta.

Where is my Paul Frank Shirt?

Now this is the drama I would rather deal with than the nightmare that was Anoka State. I ordered a Paul Frank Julius shirt in mid-April where Julius the monkey is break dancing. It was sent to Methodist Hospital where I was a patient for part pf that month. Than I was ambushed and handcuffed and taken to Anoka State. Anyway, neither Methodist nor Paul Frank Industries is taking responsibility for the loss of my shirt. I really want my monkey t-shirt. Where oh where has it gone?

Eating Disorder Thought for the Day

Being willing to feel the hurts of today is part of my recovery. (I feel like I have felt my share of hurts already).

Who Knew?

I can actually sit down after finally withdrawing from that awful medication that I was forced to take at Anoka Prison. It is much more relaxing than pacing most of the day. Shame on the doctors and the courts who thought this would help me.

Eating Disorder Thought for the Day

I will share my hope today with someone else so that it will become stronger.

Red Lobster

I am eating at Red Lobster with my mom and grandma enjoying my freedom. They say 'hi' to you all.
