I am sooooo bursting at my seams because I am so excited that we may be filmed at work for a documentary on HBO -- how cool is that???? I don't have all the details yet... and... I certainly don't want to count the chickens b/4 they hatch as I know that they are merely filming, which doesn't always guarantee air time, etc.... but.... how cool is that?????? I am sooo giddy about it... can you tell???? K

My Fu-Fiance called off the Fu-Wedding b/c he thought I wasn't communicating with the powers that be planning the Fu-Wedding.... and then I wake up yesterday afternoon to the manager at Blue Orion putting me on suspension because I didn't have SAMS working just yet (and I had been trying for 8 weeks to get someone to get the darn program working for me). Dang, drama! (Remembering... this is only Fu-World and not the real life!) I get enough of it by the callers I receive calling in for crisis situations in at my real life work... and all this drama occuring yesterday (and/or finding out about it yesterday anyways) just slightly before heading off to my work didn't sit well for me. I wasn't in a good frame of mind for my real life job and I felt horrible for it. I should have called in sick instead of not being completely there in the moment for work, but it just wasn't that easy to shake off -- Fu World or not. I am a sensitive person... which is what makes me so good at what I do in the real world. I don't need the drama at all. Insofar as the suspension, I suspect now that the owner is getting herself involved with me today that I will be up and running prior to my scheduled shows this week, which will make the drama that occurred last night so very unnecessary. Insofar as the fu-wedding, I am not sure that I can give this guy a third chance b/c he has acted out of haste and changed things up on me already twice -- and,I keep reminding myself that this is only Fu-World. While I'll still consider him as my friend, I guess I need to make myself known that I am available for someone's Fu-Wife. Is there someone out there not looking for Fu-Drama??? I am beginning to wonder.... Although it is my time to go to bed, I can't help hear Jimmy Buffet's song ringing through my head..."pour me a tequila"... oh, howdie, how I need a vacation right now! Hugs and kisses to you all..... Loves... K

2 cats available to good home! Walked in the door.. (1) door blocked by boxes fallen down (2) headset cord severed and headset in their dish in the kitchen (3) Pc tower on its side (4) tower of CDs on floor in office (cds everywhere, including my b/u cds), everything on my table beside my desk on the floor... Can I scream now???? (trying to remember to laugh about this but I am going to have to go to Walmart for a new headset today... grrrrrrr) LMAO??? They are being oh so lovey dovey right now when all I want to do is scream and pitch them outdoors for a while... ugghghghghghh...

I have been on a plant food diet for the past couple of weeks. The first week yielded some weight loss, but this past week yielded a loss of 6 pounds as per my doctor's visit today! I am psyched!!! Went to the grocery store to buy more plant food, as well as some meats to cook in the mix of the vegetable soups for flavor and some taste of meat (mostly fish and some bits of ham). Came home briefly to put up the really cold stuff, eat some yogurt and heading off to the clubhouse for a workshop on Feng Shui. I'll let you know if it yields any terrific, earth shattering ideas.... In the meantime, I hope everyone is having a great day and on to a wonderful evening. I know I will... I have tonight off from work -- yayyyyyy!!! Talk to you folks more later.... K

Especially with direct attention to Vegan/Vegetarian Divas :D Recently I have been to the doctors and they have done the works of medical tests on me during the past couple of weeks. What they have found is that I am in perfect health, but my thyroid is very low. As such, he has recommended that I go on an all plant diet, which also means that I can have a lot of nuts as well. I teased him a bit and told him that I have had plenty of nuts in my lifetime, thank you very much! Lol... ;) All joking aside, I am to have soy milk and plant food for a while, along with some stuff that he is special ordering for me. Vegetable soups I can hang with; I know how to do that very well. I just need some ideas for a little creativity without getting too vegetarian, if you know what I mean (tofu, barley, etc. -- I am just not ready for all that!). Soups day in and out might get old after a while. If you have any creative ideas, please send me some links...or resources....personal recipes...etc. that are your favorites. I know that there are a lot of vegan/vegetarian folks around everywhere, but I am not sure who all is and isn't. I'd love to hear from you all..with your clever ideas!!!

What the heck does that supposed to mean? I am seeing it more and more and am not sure what they are trying to make reference to in their names and pictures. Do you know????

Today has been a rough day for me. For many that know, I answer crisis calls for a living. That, in itself isn't too bad because I generally can separate myself from their pain and move forward to the next caller. Today, it has been different. Perhaps, it is because I have never worked in this field on Superbowl Sunday; I don't know. It seems like I had before, but I don't remember it being this rough. Superbowl for most people can be all fun and games, but from the domestic violence perspective it can be quite the opposite. I have been receiving higher risk crisis calls today percentage wise than I ever have, I believe. I mean, usually, it is just calls wanting more information or how to plan to help from friends or family members OR understanding how they need to understand why they need to stay away from the abusive person OR some students wanting help on their projects. Today, though.... * a woman's face was bashed in by her ex and she just returned home from the hospital. Her ex was on the way to p/u the kids and she needed to ensure their safety until she could reach the attorney and the district attorney in the morning.... * callers calling from places they are hiding from their abusers.... * callers from the other room while there abusive partner was enjoying the superbowl game after having beaten them up. They were seeking shelter space.... * callers wanting us to call 911 for them... * caller stating that her husband had just "disciplined" her daughter by yanking her hair and dragging her through the house and throwing her into the doorway. The daughter now has a concussion.... * other child abuse calls being called in.... and sooooo much more. It is times like these when one gets these sort of calls you would like to be able to hang up the phone and call "The Equalizer" to take care of things. I guess I always loved that show because the actor would do so in a not necessarily violent way to get the point across to the aggressor -- a sort of person who advocated for the underdog. It is sort of the peace de la resistance (sp?) in the fact that, at least, one underdog has won today -- even if it is from an event that seems to masks the pain of others in the same day. Some day -- I wish the pains of the victims away and the abusive/aggressive folks of this world find peace so that we can all live in the world as one happy family. Is it really too much to ask for???

"Making lists doesn’t always put our world in order, but it certainly helps us to feel more orderly." ~ Anonymous lol.. I don’t know how many lists that I have written over the years, but it has certainly made me rest better at nights very often so that I could have a renewed perspective of the upcoming day, as well as a renewed charge and dedication to eliminate as many of the items off of my lists. How about yourself????
