If you had to give up either chocolate or your mobile phone forever, which would you sacrifice?

This is like asking me to chose between my kids, but harder...

All my friends live in my cell phone and my life would be a boring dull existence without the pleasures of chocolate.

Decisions, decisions...

Right now I would chose to sacrifice my cell.

• Reason one, because I have the internet at home now and I am not solely dependent on it for the internet and communications to the outside world.
• Reason two, right now I want to take a sledge hammer to my unsmart not a palm phone. The blackberry has a scroll (like a mouse) well the clicker went almost immediatly and right now I can't scroll up or to the right. Which means I can't get to most of my shortcuts (like address book and volume). It's quite irritating me. It also locks up all the time. I get the hourglass from hell and it will freeze during phone calls or make me wait a 1/2 hour to get to a web page.
• Reason three, I ate lindt chocolates and they were like complete and utter bliss (gift from my boss). I could have closed my eyes and just enjoyed them if I hadn't of been gorging them at work as quickly as possible so I wouldn't be forced to share.

Happy Holiday

I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday. I will be home (RELAXING) so I will be flooding Multiply with my usual banter, over abundance of warm fuzzies and bright sunshine. I know a lot of you will be busy (and offline) so I wanted to wish you all a happy holiday before you all vanished to do what normal people do on family occasions.

Writer's Block: Holiday cheer

Do you tend to get nostalgic during the holidays? Depressed? Giddy? How do the winter holidays make you feel?

Holidays bring back memories, some of them are happy but one bad day ruined all the "happy". My dad had his stroke on Boxing Day. He was on his way to visit me and instead of seeing him walk through my door, I received a call that broke me. My dad was all about the holidays, there was not one Christmas he didn't drive all the way to visit me. I miss him most days, but more so over Christmas. It's a lonely time for me. I realize all that I have lost.

Besides my dad, I find it a depressing and stressful time. I always break my bank account and this year I may have shattered it. It is not a holiday I believe in, but I don't have the guts to not conform to everyone's expectations of me during this time of year. I am not a Christian, but because of my kids and extended family I do the whole Christmas thing. I have no religious connections to the holiday.

Low-down of my xmas holiday:

1 week to xmas: OMG PRESSIE SHOPPING
1 day to xmas: OMG *insert number of hours here*
xmas day: OMG PRESSIES YAYZ!!
days after xmas: Sigh, I'm depressed now
new years eve: Reflect
new years day: Relax
day after new year: Sigh, I'm depressed now. Where the heck did my holiday go?

This Time Jack Baurer has gone too far.

Trust

Trust to me is the most important ingredient in a good friendship. If I don't trust someone I can't consider them a friend. My greatest friendships are based on sharing the deepest parts of myself the good and the bad. Knowing what I express will be held sacred. If you don't have trust in your friendship, you don't have a friendship.�

Lesson learned ~ time and time again

It isn't the first time.
You've done this before.
I mistakingly forgave.
Hoped it was a mistake, accidental action.
Now I realize it was never about me.
It was you from the start. Self-centered.
Willing to do everything just to get what you want.

Sadly it wasn't a joke it's real. What's worse it's being defended...it's offensive and disgusting.

*Alert* Good News *Alert*

Well for once with my life always full of stress, heartache, and drama, I have good news to share.

Some may remember my issues with my ear and being half deaf. I have tumors that grow and have my whole life. I live with migraines, pain, and infections. I have even had a mini stroke as a result.

About a year ago I got approved for a hearing device. It's called the baha.

I went for an appointment with a doctor that does the surgery at that time. He felt he could correct my dizziness, double vision, and my hearing. So he wanted to try corrective surgery first.

So about 6 weeks ago I had that surgery. He wasn't hopeful because disappointingly there was another tumor.

But....he removed it. I went in for a hearing test and a check up last Monday. My hearing has drastically improved. The weird thing I have not noticed. The doctor is puzzled by that but people around me have noticed. My husbands grandfather just said to me she noticed right away. I guess she no longer yells at me. Maybe that's why I haven't noticed everyone has adjusted their sound levels.

Anyways sorry for all the blogs in one night but I just had to share.

RIP Bo

My beautiful grey rat passed away last weekend. It was natural causes and he seemed to have gone peacefully.

I had him out of the cage on Saturday. He seemed calmer then he normal was but didn't seem ill. The next morning I went to get him and he looked like he was sleeping.
To everyone saying ewww or gross...you have never met a hand tamed rat. They are highly intelligent and have the personality of a dog. They are easily trained, loveably, and extremely affectionate.

He will be greatly missed and loved to sit on your shoulder for hours. He would sit on mine while I swept all the floors and washed them.

I will see him at rainbow heaven.
