Just seeing the number on paper will make you do a small vomit in your mouth. But…dang there is no alternative so we keep trucking along right?

Don't worry too much about the diverticulitis, I have it too but I find that its worse if I eat food that has small seeds or pips in it. Like you I am getting a list of ailments as each year goes by but I am trying to change my diet (went a bit crazy today with a pie and donut) but usually I am now eating healthy salads and have cut out all gluten. <br /><br />I hope you had a really lovely day and maybe you will get that pink car one day, I know its something you would love and I can just see heads turning as you drive with your gorgeous blonde hair flowing in the wind in your pink car.<br /><br />Lee :)Lee Caroline - A World of Inspirationhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12775174736286159146noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3984817437506915739.post-1166922296938088882013-11-12T10:39:57.624-05:002013-11-12T10:39:57.624-05:00Cindy, Happy, happy, tho belated, Birthday!!!

I try to focus on the good things, I have a good paying job - I hate - I own my house - which is home but there are so many things that I want to do with it - which may or may not happen - I have 3 kids - all grown - but 2 are still at home - can't afford to live on their own - and the one that doesn't live here can't afford to live where he does without calling every 2 weeks needing money. Boobs are looking at the floor, well to be honest everything seems to be headed south - an instead of getting botox or lifestyle lift I am having laser done on fungus toenails. Gawd its awful - but as I keep telling myself there are lots of good things - they just seem to get offset by all the other crap.

First, your close ups are wonderful...you have a cute nose, a sweet smile and sparkly, ALIVE eyes! Not to mention beautiful hair and cheekbones. Okay, I read Mascara, too and she is super big on brows (but I love her).. I look like a transvestite when I try to do my brows. My trick, a blonde pencil just at the beginning of them near the nose. I know a girl who had them tattooed on after over-plucking!<br /><br />And for all those things we want...I've been longing for "things" since I was 18, and then they were replaced by other "things". Hopefully we will narrow it all done to whats doable.<br /><br />Happy Birthday, sweet lady.
