When was it I gave up, The dreams that I once had? I'm lost in confusion And feeling pretty bad. In a big dark tunnel Can't find my way back out I'm lost within my mind It's lacking all but doubt. I think I'm in a rut Confusion on both sides Instead of happiness It's sadness that presides. I'm lost in direction Not knowing where to go The present condition The same old status quo. There's something lacking here Don't quite know what it is The vigor has run out Life's taste has lost its fizz. The umph to do is gone I really just don't care And burdens bring me down My life has lost its flare. ------------------ Cleaning your house while your kids are at home is like trying to shovel the driveway during a snowstorm. |

WhtDove: Sounds like you need one of Toe's VAX machines..*g* Tie a duster on your cat's tail, I do that and then add some sellotape to his fur and he races round the house...ROFL HUGS ps: That was a joke...LOL ------------------ You give but little when you give of your possessions. It is when you give of yourself that you truly give. |

Sadness visits all of us, As time so swiftly passes by Dreams that never did come true And then we wonder why? We all have our dark tunnels, We all lose our direction, Life's made up of ups and downs, No one promised us perfection. Sometimes I wish I still was, A paperboy back home, Then only thick papers and a few mean dogs, Were the only problems that I'd known. Well, there was rain and cold and sleet, And hittin' porches from the street, Oh, and grouchy people on collection day, And it really sucked considering pay. So maybe changing the "Status Quo" Just might be the way to go, When "Life's taste has lost it's fizz" It doesn't mean that's all there is. Cuz it's really up to you, To create a different "Life's Menu." |

Rainbow I would if I had a cat. Can't do it to my dog, cause she was injured Friday. She got hit by a car. Toe, thanks so much buddy! I know I need to change the Menu, that is where my confusion lies. So much I wanna do, don't know where to go. ------------------ Cleaning your house while your kids are at home is like trying to shovel the driveway during a snowstorm. |

Very goog work, very well done too. The blues is like having a cold, for the first few days it's awful, then it goes away, and you feel much better. Just look forward to when your skies are bluer, and the sun is shinning down on you. |
