NPR had a neat story on PTSD this morning. So far, I haven’t found a link to this story, but I will keep looking. Apparently, folks who were studying PTSD found that people who develop full-blown PTSD or chronic PTSD have something in common – lack of support from their communities. People who have [...]

Open threadiness! Whooo hoooooo! I will start off by celebrating the new Goody ribbon wrap headband (that link shows a black headband… the ones I bought are a lovely brown to match my brunette hair.. apparently they are making these for red, blonde and black hair) that I found at Target! It’s so rare for me to find a headband [...]

It’s been a really hard couple of weeks. Within these weeks, there have been a really hard few days. On those days, I have sometimes remembered to pray. To who, or what, is hard to say, sort of, like AGR. But the plea just goes out there. Last night, I found myself praying through dance. [...]

I was thinking about leaving these things to the Open Thread tomorrow, but there is so much I want to write about that it deserves a post of its own. Re the pooping cat: This morning he managed to mess up the couch twice. It looks like he has a tummy ache or something. So, [...]

Somedays I feel like my brain is completely broken. These are the days when I get on an ADD (or ADHD – I’m starting to see my own hyperactivity, though I’m not hyper all the time…) roll and can’t seem to help myself but to do one silly thing after another. Yesterday was one of [...]

About a week ago I released myself from the bondage of my cultish upbringing. It took me years to do this for myself…literally YEARS! I’m 46 years old and this is the first time in my life that I’ve felt free of guilt and shame on a minute to minute basis. I can’t express the [...]

I’m not sure what I think of Lifetime’s new serial “Drop Dead Diva” yet. So far, I’ve seen two episodes and there has been a lot to love and some things that really grate me the wrong way. Have you guys seen this show? Thoughts? The plot summary of the show as posted by Wiki: [...]

Happy Wednesday AGR blog friends! Open comments and even random rambling is welcome… in fact, encouraged! Have at it. To follow up on a recent open thread comment I made, our lil bed pooing cat has a vetrinary appointment for Thursday. I suspect he has some health thing going on and he has a [...]
