i dreamt i saw you walking
up a hillside in the snow
casting shadows on the winter sky
as you stood there counting crows
one for sorrow, two for joy,
three for girls, and four for boys,
five for silver, six for gold, and
seven for a secret never to be told

there's a bird that nests inside you
sleeping underneath your skin
when you open up your wings to speak
i wish you'd let me in

from "a murder of one" ~ counting crows

hi guys, i again find myself here wisking i had a lot to say but i don't.

Roni spent a few days in the hospital for a viral/bacterial infection in her tummy and that was hard. i stayed all 72 hours in the little room with very little sleep but a lot of time to think.

i miss all this but my schedule didn't give me much time and after a bit i just got worn out and stressed to the max and i retreated from everything and everybody.

i was away from home so much that i hardly saw my family and when i was here i hid in a book so as to escape any further stress and to not take it all out on them.

my efforts were not appreciated.

i am working hard now to turn it around and save my family before it's gone so far that i can't.

i guess what i'm saying is that i could go either way right now. i could come back and update on my progress or i may drop back out of sight for a while and it all counts on how things go here.

on a few side notes, i have avoided almost all contact with anyone in real life, too. i have hid out and stayed home and refused all invitations. i have gained more weight. i feel terrible unattractive and helpless to stop. out of control. i want to erase this last little bit but i think i'll let it stay. i need to lose some weight. i need to do laundry. i need to clean my house and treat my family with more respect and attention. i need to get out and see people. i need to TRY.

i need to make a template for a very wonderful and understanding girl who was left cluelessy in the dark. i made a promise and failed to keep it, something i am very ashamed of.

i need to go to the doc and tell him i am depressed and get some help.

i need to have a good cry.

i need a good friend to cry on.

i miss you guys.


3 = hours of sleep i got all weekend
