100 Degrees of Stress Well you all know, or most likely do that I sort of have this husband who is awaiting me to get on my feet, so he can leave me behind and finally retreat into his world of tasty drink and down he will, below to sink... So I went to the doctors who's trying his best to find a cure for what ails me, a quest that so far four others have failed to decree what is the problem, the cause of, you see. But the good news I have received today that there shows no physical problem they say, except for the coughing I've had for a year. It's all in my head, it's the stressing, I fear. But the medicine's working, it's reaching my brain and is slowing the episodes, lessening the chain of the coughing that's heard and in a month or two said, I should be like new and be over this thread of bad luck, as it's been far too long in my book. So I finished the day with some shopping that took me a bit more than usual in time... then you see I rushed to my home, my car to empty... But the bad luck just keeps a threshold on me: My house lost it's power in 100 degrees and the almost gone husband tried to place blame, when the doghouse he lives in lost light just the same... But you see the whole town had it's power cut half. So the stress just continues, and I coughed 'til I laughed as I let what he said to me slip off with ease and continued my evening in the hundred degrees... M...sort of ranting "Love is not blind - It sees more and not less, but because it sees more, it is willing to see less." |

Oh, Maur....dang it all but the med's should calm the cough while your husband's at the trough and your friends throw arms over shoulders giving you strength, when you are bolder and a cool tub of water awaits your hot skin I will turn my head (and not cough) as your new life begins all of our best here, from BP Central to our buddy, who can illuminate any dark night, with just the glow of her presence.
