They are not boring by any stretch of the imagination, and even if one thinks they can anticipate what you are going to say, they soon discover that they are in for yet another stimulating post from you! That's only one of the things I love about your blog....<br /><br />I hope that your SSI will kick in soon because it really sucks to have migraines all the time! They are so debilitating and I hate that you live like this each and every day!<br /><br />It speaks volumes about your character that you were willing to stay in a marriage that you knew you should have walked away from long before, for the sake of "his" kids! WOW! How unselfish is that????!!!!<br /><br />Hugs to you girl!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-37436435735335676982010-07-25T02:42:42.246-04:002010-07-25T02:42:42.246-04:00Robin, I have to tell you. I come over to read her...Robin, I have to tell you. I come over to read here and there b/c I have so many blogs I follow...it's hard to keep up with all of them all the time. I finally had to take a step back. I just read this post and the one after it. I read every bit of them and watched most of the music videos all the way thru. I'm listening to your music player...as I've done many times before. I'll probably keep it on while looking at other stuff too b/c you and I have similar taste in music. Listening to Bruce Hornsby (R.I.P) Mandolin Rain...LOVE it! Anyway, to my point....your blog is juicy and wholesome. It's solid emotions...deep thought, gut wrenching pain, lust, happiness, harmony, maturity, acceptance, unacceptance, hell....it's everything. How beautiful is it to open up your mind for all to see just b/c you can?? I think I can understand you pretty well...pain f*cks with our brains. For one thing, blogging is a good destraction from the physical pain...well, it can ease it. Also, with head pain...for me....it feels like it hurts worse when I keep things in. I've lost readers...one of them was my first follower. It hurt, but...ya know what...I'm glad. I'm glad that I know I can be myself and there are people that still stay. I really like you guys. lol. I only have one thing to say...don't worry about what makes a good blog. You already have a SLAMMIN blog...don't change....EVER and certainly don't worry about what anybody says about your writing on here. Ramble? I do all the time. It's like rummaging through the cereal box to get to the nice shiny prize at the bottom --sometimes the prize is good and sometimes it's kinda "ehhh", but nevertheless it's a prize and you're usually glad you sifted through all the cereal to find it (and I'm saying this analogy from you,the writer's, point of view...not the reader). I think all of your "Bangs" are way better than any prize at the bottom of a cereal box. lol. Thank you...can I have another one please? ;)<br /> "Sometimes knowing what to keep, how long to keep it, and when to let go are the things that can change or save your life. Sometimes both." ----I get scared that I'll learn this too late...BANG!

I don't know why I constantly struggle with this!<br /><br />@Su-sieee ~ Thanks for dropping in and offering the encouragement.<br /><br />@ Liza ~ Funny you said that about the last line. I had the bang right there beside it. But it didn't look right. So, I moved it down to the bottom. It just looked "cleaner." However, after you said that, I went back and moved back where it was initially. Sometimes it is best to just go with your gut. So, thanks!Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932408372240147454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-55414929990808925882010-07-24T09:43:51.329-04:002010-07-24T09:43:51.329-04:00The methaphor was pretty darn terrific.

I also have a specialist who also wants to do so many things. I have terrible health insurance. So... we are in a holding pattern. We are waiting/hoping/praying that I get Social Security Disability because I will then get Medicaid. Then I will have the health coverage I need so that the doctors can run all of the neuro tests that they want to run. There are also some auto immune diseases that we want to rule out. (Or confirm) I prefer rule out. It took me years just to find doctors interested in doing anything other than writing prescriptions.Robinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14932408372240147454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8318801159753696568.post-77154676164244911962010-07-23T19:08:42.274-04:002010-07-23T19:08:42.274-04:00But how can you know when exactly someone new to y...But how can you know when exactly someone new to your blog is actually reading something this real-personal stuff? That kind of makes no sense, because you can never know. <br /><br />I think your writing is really good. <br /><br />And that thing about your migraines, you know, if I were you I'd probably be a vegetable by know because I'd eat all the painkillers in the country. I mean, headache is what I hate most, I can really stand all kind of pain and illnesses, with the exception of stupid headache. I can't imagine having real migraines. But you know what, since they last for so long, maybe the reason is something else? Maybe you should do a bunch of other medical tests, maybe the reason is something clearly non-psychological, to put it that way. Maybe you should change your doctor? <br /><br />And, apart from the migraine part, what you wrote about your life is, I think, not bad. It's normal life. (I'm not scolding you, I'm trying to cheer you up here. Somehow. In my usual, illogial way). I think that it's all about the choice of words, when talking about life.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
