Have you ever just totally felt like azz and couldn't shake it?

I didn't even think to go pick up some whiskey for a toddy. That does sound good. Are you doing the vitamin thing too? I take C and B12 religiously when I feel like this and that usually kicks it in about 3-4 days, but not this time. The hubs & kid have been doing the coughy-sneezy thing, but the kid's over it now. And he wouldn't take off school either, lol. Maybe not my biological son, but me ma is right, he does act a lot like me, lol. Hope you get the ick kicked soon & thanks for stopping by, it's been awhile.

lol, I hope ya get ta feelin better soon too. Mine isn't what I call horrible, more a nuisence, just a big one. I have to confess, I don't take great care of myself, so I hadn't been doin the vitamine thnng, just lots of juice, I'm a bad sick person.

I hear ya. I had it bad Sunday, really bad, but since it's been more of a pain in the butt than anything. I have no time for sicknesses, lol. I can breathe fine, it's just that icky feeling inside that's bringing me down. Maybe it was pc withdrawl, I've been feeling okay for the past couple of hours with only a twinge of pain here and there. j/k

Wow. I can't help but laugh at this part, tho I know it isn't really funny: Usually people make me feel like that. I'm wondering if it's Mr. Chen making me feel this way. I have felt horrible since bombing 2 math tests. You are not my only friend mentioning that I should take up meditation. Every time I try, I fall asleep, lol. Maybe I should try harder. I have been avoiding chocolate, it sometimes makes my fibrocystic (sp?) act up, but there are some dingdongs in the kitchen, might have to grab one. You have fabulous advice, Paranoia. Speaking of, where can I go to read about your Goddess? Seriously, I think it's time i took time off from the fight to examine some other things. I'm a weird believer anyway. Been questioning everything since finding out most of my life has been a lie. Thanks, chicka.

Anything with endorphins should help, I usually know a whole list of foods with them in it..but at the moment my headache's hampering my memory..so you might have to do some googling..and lol, it's okay. You're not the only one who falls asleep while trying to meditate. I've been meditating for a few years now, and occasionally I still fall asleep. When you're already tired, it doesn't really help and at first it takes alot of concentration and the falling asleep thing certainly doesn't help but yeah, it takes some practice. Anyway, 'haps that person is who's making you feel that way. I dunno. I tend to be particularly sensitive to different people's energy's at times, I'm not sure how it is with you-- but whatever it is, I hope you can deal with it okay. Taking time for yourself and examining things can never hurt, and you definitely deserve a break, I agree ^_^ and I can sympathize a bit, dearie. Rude awakenings and revelations in life can do that to you..though if you pick through things carefully and take care of yourself, like you're doing by thinking about everything, will make it a much smoother trip than I ever had I'm sure. :) As for my Goddess, well I'll give you the typical answer and say; you already know her =) To not be completely cryptic though, I'll be good and explain lol. Since I'm pagan, my beliefs kinda don't fit a particular format. My Goddess, I believe is everything. Mostly nature. Manifest in everyone, and everything. Beautiful, and horrible, kind and cruel..because that's how the world is. The reason why I believe in her, is because she taught me much and I believe she guided me. Though the lessons were hard..and I've gone through both heaven and hell to learn the things she had to teach me..I'm still thankful, and I take joy in the knowledge I now have. She's the essence then, of 'tough love'. I believe..that every culture has known her, that every religion has her in some way or form. Currently, I'm learning her manifestation as the Native American deity Coyote, and a month ago I was learning her manifestation as the Egyptian Goddess Bast. Complicated answer, no? I dunno. My faith just fits me best, because it means a constant education. I learn about many peoples, cultures, religions..and more and more about my own. It's fun most of the time. Tough occasionally. But its what gets me through the day besides my best friend ^_^ If you're wanting to question more of life's mystery's and re-examine some of the finer questions there are then go where you're called. Rseeach what you've always wanted to. If it seems to be a truth, and what's right then awesome. Only you can really decide that for yourself..after all, only we as individuals can say what our reality is..because we all perceive it differently. *smiles* All in all though, have fun. You really deserve to have some fun. And now is as good a time as any to ask some of the more fun questions on the really cool subjects like reality and religion, philosophy and culture.

Guess i'll be trying the toddy. Meant to over the weekend but never got out to pick up any Crown. No gymmy for me, lol. I may be temporarily going back to serving (I'll find out within the next couple of hours), and that will be plenty workout for me. Glad to see you, Wolfie. It's been awhile. Hope things are going well for you. Ciao4now, Shannon

I have been going to school, running errands, etc. I have been shirking home duties, and the family has been great about it--well, my dishes are done at least, lol. I've been doing the vitamin C & B12 thing, tho. I should go pick up some juice. I've mostly been drinking lemon tea & energy beverages that are no sugar and high in vitamin content. Thank you for stopping by and for the advice. I was going to loaf and study today, but thanks to your advice to keep moving, I will do some housework today too.

Hi Azimsay. Nice to meet you. I hope you get feeling better soon. Thank you for taking time to stop by and comment.
