Excellent advice. I keep thinking I have to completely change my habits starting Monday,or the first of the month, etc. Never happens.Saw the cover of People magazine today.Valerie Bertnelli in a bikini at age 49. (Botoxed to the hilt, which I don’t find attractive.)

I think it was just yesterday I commented on how I haven’t been very hungry lately. Today I woke up the first time at 6 am thinking about food. I was very dizzy so I didn’t get out of bed. I actually tried to get out of bed like 4 times before I finally got […]

Yesterday was the first day I really started drinking lots of water since my accident. I used to drink a lot of water, but then while I was in the hospital I cut back drastically because it was so much work to get to the bathroom.
So yesterday morning I got back into again and […]

I decided to spend today trying to flush my body and I have been exceptionally thirsty. You would think you would get tired of the water, but instead I am just craving it. I wonder what kind of toxins and chemicals are still inside me. While I was in intensive care I was hooked up […]

Each day I find something else wrong with me. Yesterday I realized I have ultra-sensitive hearing in one ear. The other ear can’t hear a thing. My right ear though picks up sounds it shouldn’t and there is an echo. It feels a lot like when you put your head down on a desk and […]

I didn’t realize that I wasn’t able to smell anymore until I could actually smell something again. Odd I know. I broke my nose in my car accident and somehow I also lost my sense of smell.

I am not very good at this bed bound thing. I have been down for almost 2 weeks now and I am worse than a child in a bank. I am anxious to get up and moving again and tired of sitting still. What’s more…I don’t want to gain weight. I am totally paranoid. I […]

I have known about Twitter for a long time now, but was reluctant to join the cult. I thought it was silly and didn’t want to join drink the kool-aid.
Well, I finally broke down and joined. If you haven’t tried it, it is actually a great way to get information. You can keep in […]

I haven’t been around lately because I was in a pretty bad car accident. I was driving through an intersection and a suburban blew through the light. I was knocked out with a ton of broken bones and brain hemorrhaging.
I am now out of the hospital and starting the recovery process. I have to say […]
