Mental Health Issue

There is never an easy soulution to the Mental Health Issue but something has to be done. On top of the school shootings, there has been bomb threats at the High School in our school dist. It makes me nervous because my kids will be going there next year.

As I write I have a very dear friend who sits in the Hosp. with a punctured lung and many other injuries from her husband beating her. He has had a mental health issue for spmetime but he went over the edge the other night. They have five kids toghther and he beat her in front of them. This couldn't have been good for any of them. I don't know how she is I have to call her mom to find out.

I get worn out just thinking of all of this. I don't understand. I know it is hard to get help but come on when you feel yourself gettint to a certain point you HAVE to get help. Would someone rather hurt people than get help? I just don't understand.

PETS

I have had some funny pets over the years. One time I had a pot belly pig that liked to sleep in my dirty clothing. I had two ferrets that liked to play tag with the cat, a cat that was male that thought he was a mother cat and tried to breast feed kittens. Currently there is my first and only dog, he thinks he is a real boy. The other day my husband and I were laying in bed and the dog jumped up and was staring at us. Pretty soon my youngest daughter climbs up and goes to lay next to me. Well, the dog wasn't going to stand for that so he shoved her out of the way and laid down as close as he could to me! He's a great boy and funny as all get out!

Light at the End of the Tunnel

So here I am sitting in the tunnel that has been so dark for what seems like forever and atlast I can see the light. There it is 12 weeks off. IT is a small dim light right now but as each day passes it will be bigger and brighter. Again, I will have come out on top of a hard and tireing trip, but it will be well worth it. Thank you for those who knew I could make it, even when I wasn't so sure. Thank you to those who stood by me when I wasn't the nicest person to be near. Thank you to those who prayed for me, and Thank you God for answering the prayers.
