I've been spending time reading real books to help with my cognitive repair. When I pointed out that I've plenty of books on my iPhone & iPad I was reminded that those are designed to distract and that what I need is to be able to focus. BUT… during the week I'm here all day and would always welcome a phone call from a true friend such as yourself.

What are you reading?
I'm reading The Edison Gene at the moment. Interesting for sure.

I couldn't leave a “like" because I didn't want folks to be confused, but I “like" what you are reminding all of us about, and I “like" that you are tough enough to admit you had to leave the room.

I could never forget. I was only in 2ND grade, old enough to remember, old enough to understand terrorism and the tragedy but young enough to not remember much of my life before that, I'm pretty much the youngest age of people that can actually remember. My brother was only 1. Not going to lie I want to take US history classes when I retire and loudly tell tell the fellow college students that I remember that day, image the looks they'd give!

I wear emotions on my sleeve, I don't believe it's helpful to hide things, and who cares if people judge me in person over that. I just absolutely refuse to cry in front of people unless there's some pretty severe pain or suffering.

What are you reading?

Currently I'm reading the 7 books by Isaac Asimov “The Foundation".

Me, ever since the wreck, I can tear up from almost anything. Normally I know it's gonna happen and I announce as much. Typically 1 tear from each eye, then it passes. Doctors tell me it's a normal effect of slapping my face on the highway when I first started to roll.

As someone who's personally contemplated ending it and thinking through the ways for months it pains me to think that people made that choice in minutes. Though in thinking about the fire and the heat up there I think I know what I would have done too which is why I can't watch, it's like I can personally feel the emotions in that moment.

I just wear sunglasses a lot on times I feel emotional, but for be that's just hormones or whatever. I'm only embarrassed about crying if there's no real reason... Like the other day at the fair I was watching a kid eating an ice cream cone waving it around talking to her father and i started tearing up that the ice cream was going to fall and my friend thankfully didn't judge me.

I totally get it. I do that as well. Most people I'm around now understand when I say head injury, I'm starting to tear up. They often smile at me and look very understanding. Many times the older women folks will ask me to come to them for a warm comforting hug.

even at my sickest,right now I've never contemplated suicide

Comforting hugs are quite helpful sometimes.

I've contemplated way more than I like to admit for my young years.

How on earth does one accidentally screw up that bad?

Whew! The smoke was real thick in our atmosphere today. After lunch it was blocking the sun. We have a big cat sanctuary in the foothills east of me and they're having to figure out how to move all those big cats out of the fire's path.

We could sure use a bit of rain.

Yesterday there was a junk mail in my box addressed to Sabrina Gomez (don't know anyone by that name). It was letting her know that there was going to be try-outs coming up for young girls interested in modeling careers. Then today I got another junk mail for Sabrina advising her to sign up for a Discover Card for college and education expenses.

It's got me a bit worried, using my address like that. I tried to find her on Facebook, but she's not there.

I had been wondering too.

 

[Jacqui]
