The New Ka-Tet Cantina

[~Ally~]

We are Ka-Tet, and self does matter. If there are issues about how you are feeling about yourself and you need to vent, do so. There is a saying:When you change the way you look at things, the things you look at change.. It does work. Sending serenity to your life.

Yeh I know that Spidey, and I'm a strong believer in the power of positive thinking and self belief. But sometimes ****e just happens, and even the strongest of people can suddenly feel weak/vulnerable/worthless. My problem is I've always been the strong person in all of my personal relationships. I'm the one who helps people--even strangers--and gives them advise, never the other way around. If I have to cry I will do it alone, if I have a problem I hold it inside until I've worked it out myself, without external influences. I don't want people to be disappointed in me, because I'm already disappointed in myself. There really is no worse critic than the person we see when we look in the mirror. I reveal more of myself on this site, to my friends here, than I ever do to people in my real life...that's sad, genuinely.

Despite everything I've just said...I will be fine. I start back at work tomorrow (today when this is posted) on a new surgical ward, so that should be interesting. It will be good for me to feel mentally and physically stimulated again. I'm also going to rejoin the gym/zumba this week. Hopefully the natural endorphins will enhance my mood because I can't continue feeling this unhappy...but more importantly, I WON'T continue this way. I'm a fighter and will bounce back, so y'all better watch out. Phew, that was quite a rant from the wee English chick huh?? Done bun can't be undone!

Hope everyone has a great week ahead, next time I drop in I promise to bring some peace~loving~hippie~chick vibes with me. Stay cool folks.

Good Monday to all. Hope it was a good weekend and we are ready to enjoy the last week of February then see how March will come in-- lamb, or lion. Spent the weekend reading as it rained off and on. Temps remain very high, so I can send warmth, but no sunshine.

Ally- baby steps and one day at a time. Good luck with the new job!!
Off to bean bag central with herbal tea in hand. All are welcome to join.

Good morning, good morning....excited about my TV debut, yet feeling a bit under the weather. With Ej going to school now he's going to bring me home every little sneeze, sniffle and stomach ache available.
and so it begins.

Off to take a walk on the treadmill!

oh, and anyone dealing with warm and lovely temperatures, please send them to CT.
Thank you! xo

Good Monday and start of another week!

I pray everyone had a great, safe weekend.

Son and I are feeling sorta cruddy. Yuck.

Cool and drizzly weather-perfect for staying in bed and get some rest.

I'll be on and off.

Hope all had a good weekend!!
Got more snow on Saturday and Sunday was a sunny day. Today it's been cold again. Spring never come at least it feels so.
((Ally)) hope everything works out for you.
(( Sig)) will keep you and your son in my thoughts and prayers.

Take good care my friends.

Happy Monday All!! Hope this finds you all in good health and spirits!! Ally, are you me? Your description of yourself is spot on for me! Keep your head up, girl! I hope your first day in the new environment went well? My Oscar party last night went extremely well! WooHoo! Lots of laughter and joking all around! I came in second place (yes, we did the ballots and voting thingy for every catagory) but two people tied for third so I disqualified myself so that they could each have a prize (after all, I was the host). I do believe that this will become a yearly tradition with my newer friends out here in Spokane like it was with my friends when I lived in Seattle. (of course bribing them with prizes helps........) Sending out happy and positive vibes to All!! Enjoy your day!!

Had a little of the creeping crud myself on Friday, but felt better over the weekend. Be well, everyone!

It's raining cats and dogs here. Don't know if there will be a Daytona 500 later on today or not. I sure could use some Monday Night Racing.

My brother just got home after a two day trip to pick up a Bronco that one of his buddies sold him. Which means I get to keep his old car. Yay.

Stay dry. Unless you're hoping for rain.

I'd go outside and do stuff today, but I forgot where I put my life jacket and canoe.
