I Ain't Said Nothin' But A Word...

I'm tired. Sleep is once again eluding me and my schedule has been way out of control. So right now I feel like my body has been hit with a Mack truck and my mind is complete and total mush. I'm irritable, my mood is swinging from one extreme to the other, and despite it all I have this really great guy who keeps reminding me that I am much loved. Tired or not, I sure enough can't say that I don't have it good!! My weekend has been completely dedicated to one thing and one thing only. The Stallions!

May God's blessings be with President Barack Obama and his family and may God bless us all.

I listened to her story and though, on the surface, it seemed a bit far-fetched, I recognized that her fear was very, very real. Pamela has been amazingly happy. A great career, wonderful new guy, and an amazing teenage daughter keep her very fulfilled. Last year she left behind a dysfunctional and abusive relationship to find herself some peace of mind. Her ex-hubby was prone to extremes. Extreme mood swings, extreme tantrums, extreme behavior. So much so that he scared her, leaving her fearful for her own safety more times than she cared to count. When she left she spent months peering over her shoulder waiting for him to pounce and attack. Then there was nothing. No calls, no conversation, nada. The quiet was unnerving at first but then Pamela fathomed the brother had moved on to other people and o
