Well, the FEASTING ON FOWL is over....
In MORE WAYS THAN ONE, of course

I took 3 days off, to feel sorry for myself, and consider deleting my profile. My photography is a lot more important to me now, I have stopped dating (that was actually about a month ago, but I know that doesn't impress anyone). My daughters have moved on, with increasing interests and time, devoted to school and their local Jewish family, and my health has improved........

Sad to say, some relationships of mine, have ended.

So, with new photos, taken yesterday and today, along with these changes in my life, I thought I'd put up a NEW profile. Mind you, I have EVERYTHING BUT....you know, BUT the new profile name, BUT the new zip code, etc.

I'm now COMPLETELY free, of caffeine and mood altering drugs......sugar and caffeine in chocolate ANYTHING, being the 2 noteable exceptions. My motorcycle madness burn on my calf has healed, I found out I DON'T need spinal surgery, and I've lost my excuses, for being a Victim Martyr.

I have come to the conclusion, that EVERYONE overdoes SOMETHING. Habits and addictions are frail things, to depend upon, but they can give us a break, from over---thinking a lot of troubles; I call that "mental masturbation", and, like the term implies, wallowing and playing with our own personal crap is only satisfying, to a limited and temporary degree.

With my local daily life, having been OVER-analyzed and MINUTELY scrutinized, I'm more private, than I used to be. Frankly, that phenomenon is proving to be a bit fun, now; after all, it afforded me the luxury, today, of taking my battery outta my cell phone, leaving it hidden (you can't be found, by cell tracking and internal cell phone GPS systems, if the battery is out, so I'm told). I was able to spend Thanksgiving, with a few single moms in their forties, who's kids were off with Dad.

NO, WE DID NOT watch "The Ex-Wives Club", nor did we MALE BASH.

It was nice, not being accountable, for a few days. While it irked a few of my nosier acquaintances (quite selfishly FUN, with them, knocking on my door and my not answering, all the while enjoying fuzzy angora socks and girly floral flannel nightshirts and Hersheys chocolates ), to not know where I was, it allowed me to howl at the moon at 3am and finally decide I have better things to do, than irritate others.

Tomorrow, I'll post about my Christmas gift list; tonight, it's The Food Network and The Comedy Channel, and Jennas fuzzy blondeness, to keep me warm.

I'm thankful that, no matter how hard a year it HAS been, I have FINALLY decided to FIND SATISFACTION in things, other than romance and my kids.

Such pass away now, and I can move on, distractions such as these, left behind, and perhaps find life, beyond the drama that kids and the seductions have dealt me.

Be blessed, everyone.

It was indeed a pleasure to read your Blog today.....it looks like you've been doing a lot of thinking....And, ya know what? I believe all that thinking is going to pay off...big time.

Sometimes we just can't see stuff until it's ready to "show itself" to us.....Looks to me like you've got the "big picture" now.

I think Thanksgiving has been good to you.

Fondly,

KK

Gwen,

The account of your Thanksgiving and the tranquility evident in your blog put a smile on my face. Contentment and a satisfaction with yourself and your life is a far better gift than can be purchased at any store. Thank You for the wonderful words.
