Poppies...Poppies...

"And now, my beauties, something with poison in it, I think. Something with poison in it, but attractive to the eye, and soothing to the smell. Poppies... Poppies. Poppies will put them to sleep. Sleep. Now they'll sleep!"
The Wicked Witch of the West

I'm ready to nap beneath the poppies...I swear that Witch has drugged me!

A Little Thing

“Attitude is a little thing that makes a BIG difference." Winston Churchill

Today I began, Session one of Father/Daughter Therapy. I am the therapist. My father, the victim/patient.

I find it so hard to comprehend how the most stubborn man I know, has given up so completely. The trick will be finding him a little bit of hope...

"A habit cannot be tossed out the window; it must be coaxed down the stairs a step at a time." Mark Twain


I am in the midst of coaxing my father down the stairs.


I would much rather, toss him out the window.

It's Oh So Quiet, shhhhhhh...shhhhhhhh....

Allow me to begin with a little Bjork, as I sit here and pass the time into to night while I watch over my pug Sumi, who is having an allergic reaction (hives it seems) to something.
We will be visiting the vet in the morning for something to relieve her, for now I've given her a dose of antihistamine...and since it's the first time for the medication I'm watching her for any reactions.

Let's hope no riots ensue.

The other 'quiet' is the lack of Xanga 'noise'.

I'm defecting...it's true.
Perhaps this will be the final blogging outlet, perhaps I'll move over to VOX, perhaps somewhere else...but my old stomping grounds have become something of a circus.

And I don't like clowns.

So, I've come to quietly start anew...and perhaps find a new community to share within.
No doubt I'll mirror for a while, but it's time to move away from there.
At least to gain perspective.
