Getting exciting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I've been taking my time on the newsletter for TBI Raiders. I'm working on it when I'm not sleeping. I've been networking with one of my contacts in the Brain Injury Association of America and have been communicating with a new contact these last few weeks on doing something that will get exposure to both TBI Raiders and Brainline.org.

Yea! Got time to blog today!!!

I've had tons of things going on since the last time I blogged. But I have been paying attention to the presidential race and am fuming at what idiots the democratic party is becoming. Not everyone who is a democrat is an idiot and I say that because I am a democrat. But this is stupid. The party IS NOT even listening to the little people. They only care about money, Hollywood, Celebrities, MTV, and they are DESPERATE to get someone into office that isn't Bush or a republican because they are still WHINING over the losing the last election.

They picked someone to be their candidate because they were desperate to get the black votes. Obama has flip flopped so much it's ridiculous. They chose someone who has ties to terrorist leaders and attended a church with an anti-american preacher. Obama at first whined about what hardships the blacks went through, etc. He thinks that's bad?! Try being a native american! My Cherokee ancestors and other natives got put through literal hell! Blacks were brought over here as slaves. They didn't get their land taken away from them and as a contact of mine told me more natives then blacks died back then and the natives were taken as slaves also. BUT do you see the natives whining? No some nations just want their land back which is understandable. And Obama supporters refuse to really look into what the other side says. They are just convinced they have to be lies because Obama is their "messiah". Then there are those that believe if you have a seizure disorder or muscle spasms and get frustrated easily, you don't have the right to vote. Well here is a suggestion...how about Obama grows the hell up and start acting like an American who gives a damn about this country!

Waiting for people in this country to wake up

I've heard all about I can stand in terms of politics. Whoever is running against Inhofe, I would like to ask him this? Exactly who on earth has been in control over Congress? News flash it hasn't been the Republicans. Yes the Republican party isn't perfect but neither are Democrats or Independents. But I'm very happy he won tonight. He votes with his heart and he does listen to his constituents.

Then you have terrorist loving anti American Obama.
Steamed I'll call him that because actions speak louder than words. I've been keeping quiet for a while now because I didn't want to blog about anything that would result in my health going south. I don't understand how he can have such a following. He flip flops on way too much stuff. He only likes to whine about what whites did to blacks. Everytime I have to listen to him it just makes me more Raise The Roof 2 proud to be part Cherokee IndianRaise The Roof 2. I have yet to hear him talk about job creation for the youth. And instead of going to the disability forum, he went overseas to well if I put anymore, I'm lible to make myself sick.

I'll come post more later! Have a great week everyone who comes to visit this blog!!!

It stinks I may have to slow down

This completely stinks. My sleeping spells have been affecting me again. And they've been affecting me as bad as they did the last six months of last year. So I'm going to have to find other ways of contributing in the future for candidates that I support. I was planning on jumping in and becoming actively involved this month. But now I'm not going to be able to. I am 100% behind Senator Inhofe being re-elected. I'm still going to do as much as I can. The only thing that stinks is I may have to consult with my doctors with how much I am going to be able to do. Be happy you don't live with a left/right Traumatic Brain Injury. It's the pits!

Exciting News!!!!!!!!!

Tomorrow I will meet with the organization's lawyer and we will write up the bylaws for TBI Raiders. I'm not sure what else I will need to do while I'm there, but this will be TBI Raiders' first move towards becoming a non-profit organization. There are tons of possibilities of different opportunities that the organization could do. The short-term goal that was discussed last week for TBI Raiders' was educating others about Traumatic Brain Injury. There were several things that were discussed as far as long term goals. Board of Directors was also discussed as far as how many to have on the board and suggestions of who to have on the board. Those were two of the many things that were discussed during the meeting. It takes anywhere from 6 months to a year to become a non-profit organization. So we have a long road ahead of us!

:) Content & Happy

Today went good. I went to Luther High School during lunch time and held a booth. Three girls signed up while another took a brochure on head injuries. There were a group of boys I think were talking about me and what I said in regards to Obama. lol I say that because every so often I caught them looking at me. I could care less what they had to say. Simply because I'm not going to have another sleeping spell! I had one hit me on Sunday and I was only awake five to eight hours of the day. It's day like those that I hate having a left/right TBI.

But cool news is I received a call from Senator Inhofe's office to let me know they received what I had sent them for TBI Raiders and they were excited or impressed or something to that nature. I have some packets I will be taking to the Emergency Management Meeting tonight. Well I need to rest up some more before the meeting tonight. Later!

The 2008 Presidential race is getting out of hand at least where it concerns the democratic nominees

NOBODY is asking or pondering some important questions and I have kept quiet way too damn long on the subject that I need to blog about it before I have a crazy spastic fit...

- If we leave the middle east without fixing the whole terrorism situation and leave the terrorists up to no good exactly how many times can we fear another 9/11 happening?
- We have another 9/11 and a democrat is president, I want THEM to look into the Americans who will become disabled as a result and EXPLAIN to them why THEY DID NOTHING TO PREVENT IT!
- Why the hell the democratic party considers listening to some pathetic website and an anti-American organization MORE IMPORTANT than LISTENING TO THE LITTLE PEOPLE!!!
- Why are the Hollywood/celebrities more important than the average hard working AMERICANS?
- Why do they care about getting illegals more rights and getting them citizenship when the DISABILITY community is the LARGEST minority group and MOST IGNORED Americans when it comes to helping!

I could go on because I'm extremely p.o.ed that the democratic party at the national level is acting like a bunch of 5 yr olds...sorry to all the 5 year olds I just insulted. To the democratic presidential candidates this is just a popularity race and they are more worried about basing it on race or gender. The Universal Health care is a JOKE and LEAVES AMERICANS WITH DISABILITIES OUT IN THE BLOOMING COLD! I have watched the video that John McCain has on what he plans on doing for health care. He has a really good plan. And I'm NOT repeat NOT just saying that because A) I think he's cool B) is a veteran and C) That's who I'm voting for in November. I will take representing Oklahoma youth with disabilities before my ego takes over when it comes down to what is important to me. When it comes to the issue of health care he looks at the whole picture and has some wonderful ideas and REFRESHING ideas. Some people who are ranting to vote for Clinton and Obama are acting like they don't even have brains. Clinton and Obama very much look like a bunch of puppets for the democrat party.

Wish me luck...

I'm just enjoying life a whole bunch right now. Biggest kick that I'm getting out of it is the fact that ten years ago I should have died from a left/right Traumatic Brain Injury and have made close to a full recovery & I am doing so much stuff!!!

This week I'm going to Luther Middle School first to go talk and work with the leadership class. They are always fun to go talk to. I get a kick out of going to that class, they've really helped with TBI Raiders, and I get to visit/spend some time with a childhood friend who is the teacher. Then about a hour later I will be going to speak to the sophomores, juniors, and seniors at the high school about TBI Raiders. I know one of my pals that I grew up with in school has some cousins in the high school...which I need to get a hold of Lester now that I think of it. I've been getting plans together of what exactly I will be doing and saying.

Which I need to call to see if I can get a booth in the cafeteria most of the first week of May so I can sit and visit with the students about TBI Raiders. Plus I'm going to mention about registering to vote and need to find out when they need to register for the general election. Out of important things I need to do, this week's activities would be in my top five. Plus these kids need to hear the facts because no one is telling them the facts where it concerns those with disabilities and with the election and what's at stake.

Scary Thought

A friend was visiting me yesterday and said:
A) If Obama/Clinton were on a ticket then they would win hands down
B) There is NOTHING in the rules that would stopping Senator Clinton from picking her husband as her running mate

Why the sam hell do folks in this country want a bunch of ignorant pee brains running this country?! (not referring to Bill Clinton) They won't even listen to the other side and only thing with their id/ego. This presidential race is getting beyond stupid on the democrats side. I've pretty much stopped going to the county democratic meetings where I live because I don't feel like being attacked or given looks...even though there are a few I will talk with. I won't be going to next month's to save on gas so I can get ready for the zillion things I will be doing for TBI Raiders.

Busy and annoyed with the democratic presidential candidates

Well first off I'm busy with getting everything together for TBI Raiders and making sure it's perfect. I've got to find out some information in regards to the financial information for building a non-profit. I have to get everything pulled together by May 1st because that is the day I go speak to the high school students at Luther. I'm getting the online community for TBI Raiders structured to where it is truly a "city" online. I want to help get students the training and skills they will need to succeed once they finish school. I really hope to create some jobs through this as well.

I'm annoyed with the democratic presidential candidates. They aren't doing things the way it should be done. They are telling people to vote because either on the fact it's a woman and it's a black that's running. They cater to the far left and that's stupid. They only tell people what they want to hear. Below is the article I wrote for the May issue of the TBI Raiders Newsletter.

Ashamed to be a democrat
Okay I don't know how much more I can stomach of the democratic presidential race. It's one huge pathetic joke. That's my opinion and NOT TBI Raiders' opinion. I want everyone to understand something. Yes I'm a democrat but I care way too much about representing Oklahoma youth with disabilities. I don't care if they think different than me, they need to be represented. Clinton AND Obama DO NOT! They can talk all they want about what they want to do, but I'm going to pay more attention to what they did or did NOT do while in office.

I thought we teach others to work with others to make the best compromises. Please, they only want to listen to what some website and some damn anti-American organization think. They don't care about those of us who are Americans with disabilities. Congressional Democrats were too whiny and pouty about losing the 2004 Presidential Election. Whatever happened to representing EVERYONE?! I want someone who is going to unite the country not someone who is going to split this country in half....which is something Democrats at the national level and the far left have successfully done. It makes me sick to my stomach.

Very Pleasant Day

I am in such a pleasant mood. I took my ballet costume over to the high school for Mrs. Perdue to look at and see if she could help me replace the straps. We talked about what I was wanting to replace the straps with and she measured the straps and told me how much I needed to get of the material. So now I just need to go to Hancock's. I first need to find someone who can drive me to Shawnee. I am so excited about my 16th dance recital!

Furthermore I am getting even more pumped for the events going on in May that are for TBI Raiders. I'm going to need to find a CPA to do the papers for TBI Raiders to become a non-profit. But the organization is going to need to raise $500.00 to get the papers filed. I'm going to be speaking to the sophomores, juniors, and seniors at Luther High School about the organization the first part of May. Then the next week we will have the first official meeting. Then May 1st - May 16th the organization will be having a membership/donation drive. Part of the money will be used to hold a pizza party for the members and their family at the end of the school year. We're also going to discuss having a community donation drive when I go to Luther. Then towards the end of summer will be a summer training camp for members and potential members.

I'm excited about everything that is going on. I most excited that I am able to do something that I've been promising many of the now young adults and teens that know me which is to help them to succeed in school and life. So this is beyond thrilling for me. And I'll have a summer job - giving private dance lessons. So I'll have something to help me with gas money...yea!!!

I'm going to need A LOT of sleep between now and May 9th...

I say that because I don't want to get stressed out and then have my sleeping spells hit me again like they did the last six months of last year. That was creepy because majority of the time I was only able to stay awake three to five hours out of the day. Eeks, it still gives me the chills thinking about it. That's why I've been taking this non-profit stuff at a slow pace and been completely relaxed. One thing is for sure, if I'm ever able to, I want to find out what was wrong with me last year. My neuropsych told me last year that there could be over ten possibilities as to what was affecting me anywhere from a sleeping disorder to the type of Traumatic Brain Injury I sustained ten years ago - left/right.
***shivers***

One of my contacts with the Brain Injury Association sent me some links to help me get more detailed information on building a non-profit organization. My daily planner now has so many notes on building a non-profit and ideas/plans for TBI Raiders...lol. This week and next week I am going to work on getting confirmations as far as to who is showing up for the meeting but already know we're going to need the auditorium for the meeting.
***Smiles***

Okay took a nearly two hour nap but am back up and time to dive back into doing homework. OMG and I have dishes and laundry to do...maybe I'll just skip housework today :D.

Meeting has been set up!

A meeting day and time has been set up for TBI Raiders. I've sent an email out to everyone I would like to attend. Something like TBI Raiders has never been done before so I'm not posting details of the meeting on here until the meeting has happened. We've got two places to choose from to meet in, all depending on how many confirm they are coming. I'm going to want the other board members, volunteers, educators, military reps, and TBI experts there at the meeting. Once we get something set up, there is already interest in Kansas and Tennessee and maybe Texas to set up an affiliated program.

I'm in such a good mood today! This is exciting!!! Then you have the fact that I have set aside two days, Tuesdays and Thursdays, to give private dance lessons this summer in June and July. I'm going to post a flyer at Luther Schools - middle school and high school - then the week of the dance recital, post it there about me offering private lessons. Then I'm on the Wellston Emergency Management Team. I am doing everything I absolutely love here in Oklahoma!!!!!!!!!!

If I hadn't said this before I LOVE what I do!

Well my day started out wonderfully and peachy as I went up a block from my apartment to meet with Greg Treat. He works for Senator Coburn in his OKC office. He asked questions about TBI, TBI Raiders, and where the organization was at right at this moment. He took notes as I answered all of his questions. The only thing I was annoyed about was that I had left my small notebook that had all my notes and plans in it at home. When I got home I worked on a letter to send the high school students I would be speaking to on the first of May. Then I had to work on some fliers for TBI Raiders and then one for the private dance lessons I'm going to be offering in June and July over in Chandler. Then I got all of the necessary emails I needed to be sent off emailed to the people I needed them to go to. Other than that, I fixed lunch and supper for myself and took plenty of naps today to let my brain recover from all the activities I had done today. So you can say I am kind of exhausted. Thank God I don't have anything planned for tomorrow! I can rest to my heart's desire.

I have major plans to make!

Okay the major plans will be going on for next month when I speak to sophomores, juniors, and seniors at Luther High School about TBI Raiders. I have a powerpoint I need to update before then as well. Since I get paid on the 1st and that's the day I speak also, I may try to do something. But then again I don't know. I've been taking a load of naps to allow my brain to catch up on all the brain kicking thinking I've been doing. But at least it is not like the last six months of last year when I was having some bad sleeping spells. It got real creepy. But I've also been doing housework and that makes me sleepy as well. Oh well at least I don't have a lot of cleaning to do around my apartment. I need to get a hold of one of my friends who has some cousins in Luther. See if he can help me with recruiting some volunteers. I've got to update my powerpoints and other presentations so they can be up to date with what is going on now and will be going on. I'm going to see once it gets closer if the high school can make copies for all the students so they have packets to look through and have some questions ready when I go to speak.

This might be a busy week!

I say it might be a busy week because I have at least one meeting already set up and two more that need to be set up. I am going to need to go to the dance studio on Wednesday to work on my solos and help with two classes plus go to church. I am going to need to start walking around town this week so my costume looks perfect on me. Plus I am going to need to get with someone who can fix my costume before the June recital. Angela is going to get her class started on the assignments, I emailed her, on Monday. Then once I'm done with the two meetings I need set up then I am going to have to contact a lawyer and have him and another lawyer come to a meeting I need to set up and get a hold of everyone to come to then TBI Raiders will become non-profit! How exciting is that?!

I need to get to work on the newsletter this week and work on some of the websites for TBI Raiders. Some of the kids in the leadership class want to create their own websites and do a lot of things with the organization. I am just so pleased with how everything is going. Once we get things set up I can already think of some people I want to get a hold of to have community outreach events in Luther. The thing is I'm really excited about being able to cook a lot this week for one of the meetings. I don't like cooking a lot for myself. And it has been ages since I really cooked for anything. I know it has been a long time since I can't even remember it. Hold it, never mind because it's hard to remember some things since I have a short term memory problem. Oh well at least I'm not repeating things like I did when I was in the hospital after I came out of my coma. I could only remember things for five seconds worth at that time.

I'm probably going to re-organize my home office today in the midst of cleaning my apartment. I need to re-organize it since it's been a while and so many more things have been developing for TBI Raiders. But it's not going to be all work for me today. Later today I'm going to go visit my folks and then my youngest brother is in from college this weekend. So it ought be fun. Well I've got some things to get to so later ya'll!!!

Today was AWESOME!

I went to work with the Luther Middle School class. The kids helped get everything folded into thirds then wrapped them up with a rubber band. I had the kids all working on the same thing so we could get everything done faster. There wasn't enough time to put them into the baggies. So I left the bags and other things to go in them with Angela. But the kids were happy because they got to have some candy before class was over. Though I made everyone hungry when I mentioned having a pizza party at the end of the year.

Angela and I talked about long term goals after the class was over and she was helping me to my car with my stuff. I'm not even put what we talked about until I have spoken to some of my legislative/congressional contacts to see if this, what we talked about, can even be pulled off. But in a nutshell we are going to try to do something to help Oklahoma's youth with disabilities where some of the other programs and insurance companies/Medicaid fail to do so. Angela spoke about reaching out to those in the community to alert them about disabilities. But we made an agreement that nobody ever needed to go through what we went through when my accident happened.

Then probably will go back Friday to listen to Rep. Lindley speak to her class. I need to take my digital camera so I can take pictures for Angela! I'm so happy I was able to arrange that for Angela.

Having a blast today!

I am having an excellent day so far! I only have two main things to do today: clean house and get things ready for tomorrow. Tomorrow I will be going to Luther Middle School to work again with the Leadership class again tomorrow. They will be helping me make packets tomorrow for future booths that TBI Raiders will have and then send some packets to those who wish to have them on their campaign trails. We'll also be discussing have a membership drive at both the middle school and high school there. I have some things I need to do before we discuss tomorrow about having a donation or any kind of raising money stuff for TBI Raiders. The only other thing I have going on tomorrow is helping out at the dance studio and working on my ballet solos. Then tonight I have a training thing to go to for emergency management but that's not until six and I don't have to leave until five so until then I have an apartment to clean. But at least my brother's wife is coming to help me clean. So later ya'll cause I have to go start some laundry!

Thursday, April 3, 2008

Jeez! The things I have to do today!!!

I have an apartment to straighten up. I have the things that I took to the booth at UCO the last three days on my dining room table and couch and some on the floor. Plus I need to do some laundry. I'm very excited that one of my childhood friend's Angela is having her class become involved in TBI Raiders. Okay I may have posted something about that already...lol. We talk more in emails since we both are busy every now and then. I'm going to be working with her class on getting things together for some more stuff next week.

More importantly I just love that I'm still in touch with the legislators for Oklahoma still to this day. As I was telling someone with Senator Inhofe's campaign, I much rather speak to a legislator or the governor over someone who isn't in legislature or doesn't work at the state or government level because I'm so sick and honestly DAMN tired of getting attacked for my views....even most of the attacks have come from the democratic party. LOL If I ever got to see two friends I was in the college republicans club at Rose State College, BJ and Chad, I could so see them picking on me for choosing to become a democrat. They would probably be going why, why, why????????? I wonder what they are up to now.

But I also am waiting to get a package I order from Vista Print in the mail today. It includes a hat and t-shirt that is for TBI Raiders that I designed to give away in a name drawing. I order a load of other things as well. Ryan said I could bring it if I was able to come to an event for Senator Inhofe. lol He also told me I was more than welcome to mail it as well. I need to go to my account on Vista Print to see what all I ordered. I know it was a ton of things. Well later folks!!!

Tuesday, April 1, 2008

Somebody could have told me there is such a thing as wind burn

My poor face looks completely sun burned which stinks because my face is in pain. Okay but other than that today went by great. I need to go by some more candy to hand out tomorrow. I'm going to need to put together some more packets to give out to students tomorrow. I ran out of the packets, which I had 100 by the way. Major kudos to the leadership class at Luther Middle School who helped me with getting the material together. Speaking of which I need to go email a new contact I made at the OK-AHEAD conference today.

Resting as much as I can

Considering the fact I'm going to be going non stop three days straight along with the fact I'll be the one driving myself over to Edmond, I'm sleeping as much as I can and eating supper right now. I also need to start thinking about the direction I want to take the next newsletter for TBI Raiders. But at least this time I'll have some extra help coming from some Luther Middle & High School students. So I'm going through the registration and activity forms I got from the Middle school students and am going to plan what I want to them to do. Well I need to finish eating my Hamburger Helper meal then either get back to work or go back to sleep.

Friday, March 28, 2008

I loved today!!!!!!!

I went to work with the leadership class today at Luther Middle School. But before I did that, I went to visit with the high school principal to talk about TBI Raiders. Everything went wonderfully! Before we start making the official move to non-profit, I am possibly going to be speaking to the juniors and seniors at Luther High School as well as some of the teachers. I met one of the high school teachers who is the advisor for like the National Honor Society and some other clubs. He is going to be getting his high school students involved and will be discussing it with them in a week or two. I told him that if he wanted me to come with some powerpoints to just let me know.

Okay now onto the fun stuff. I got there early and during Angela's planning period, she had some students come and help me get the stuff out of my car. Some of them helped me get the room ready while a few of the boys played with the bunny Angela's son was going to show for show and tell. The kids were happy that I had brought snickers for them since last time I said I had some I didn't. We got some signs made and we got copies made of everything we needed to but time ran out before we could finish everything. So I went to City Hall to finish everything. Richard, one of the volunteer firefighters, helped me fold the brochures. Then I put the brochures and mission statement in a clear plastic baggy to use as give aways and stapled the registration form together. I got my sticker to put on my car for TBI Raiders. It says S-2-V which stands for Survived to Vote and has the link to the website below it. Angela said even if I wasn't there, she would have the kids work on stuff for TBI Raiders and so I emailed her when I got home what they could help with and get ready for. But when I got home I took like a two to three hour nap. I really used my brain and the poor thing was exhausted. I was about physically exhausted as well. Well I need to get back to cleaning my apartment before my dad comes down to reinstall Microsoft Word 2003.

Today is going to be so much fun!!!

Because
A) I get to see one of my aunts and she's super cool...at least I think so anyways
then
B) I get to hang out with a childhood friend when I go work with her class

I got a couch full along with a box on the floor for the booth I'm going to have for the booth at the University of Central Oklahoma. But anyways Angela's leadership class are going to help make signs, get the little gift bags that will be give a ways ready, the handouts, along with the information such as the registration forms, etc. for TBI Raiders. This is going to be so exciting! These kids are really looking forward to becoming involved. Also yesterday when I went to pick up some candy and a plastic bowl to put them in, I picked up some snickers yesterday when I was there, I told the kids I had snickers earlier in the month when I went to go speak to the leadership class and it wound up being three musketeers that I had with me.

Hopefully when I speak to the principal today she (I think it's a lady who's principal) will set up a day for me to speak to the juniors and seniors at Luther High School. I think at the same time I could possibly be meeting with the Counselor as well. Well at least I get to meet with the principal. But my aunt didn't say when she called me Wednesday to tell me about the meeting if I would be meeting the counselor and I didn't ask either. I don't think she did anyways.

At the booth I'm going to have at UCO, I may put up a donation jar for the students involved in TBI Raiders to get t-shirts and hats I have designed for the organization. I just need to check with my state contacts to see what all is exactly legal for the organization to do right now. But it would be neat if the volunteers had their own gear and stuff like folders, pens, etc. that were just for the organization. Okay I need to go do some things before I leave for UCO.

Mixed Day

My day was mixed. I went to the dentist to have him check out my teeth because they had become pretty darn sensitive...well at least some of them. They were hurting. Well I found out I would wind up having two more route canals. I didn't do anything wrong. It was just because I had some nerves dying from having one two many fillings. Oh well, at least I can count on the fact I fall asleep everytime I go to the dentist.

I went to have lunch at Ken's. Guess who I saw?! I saw one of my friends I grew up with in dance. LOL Okay Megan and I were far from being close friends growing up in dance. But we've gotten over ourselves. It was so much fun to see her again. We caught up on what each other had been up to. I told her I was back at the dance studio and her and I got to talking and discussed doing dances together next year. Which would kick some literal ass and I would love to dance with her again. We were in a class that did some good performances to songs such as "Rhythm Nation" and "Vogue" and some other ones as well.

Then I went to the dance studio and worked my poor butt off for over two hours. Oh yeah I went and got a Sonic Blast and let's just say that didn't feel too good considering the fact I was wearing jeans. Then later my friend Angela, another friend I grew up with in dance, came to the dance studio to watch and damn it I finally got the critique I had so been looking for. lol She helped me fill in some missing pieces and I finally got to hear something I had never told anyone about. Angela said I was dancing like I had before the accident. Okay I'm picky I'm close but not exactly like I was as a dancer...lol. Dancing is and has always been my first love and it's what I made a promise to come back to. Though it stinks my hose got ripped when I tried them on, but I ordered a new pair and should have them within two weeks and will be able to pay for them next week.

So to end my post....NEVER give up on your dreams. Because the only thing I haven't done that I wanted to do is become a professional ballerina. Apparently that wasn't in God's plans and I'm okay with that because I'm back at the dance studio and as a bonus am on the emergency management team. Life is sweet. But it has it sours moments but then again what doesn't???

Busy little bee

Besides working on the updates for TBI Raiders and everything that goes with that, I need to transfer the html from the City of Wellston's Website to one of my html programs. I'm the webmaster for the City of Wellston. The town (it really is a town folks) is going to be switching to a new web host once they are able to. Plus I need to do this before April something so that our current account on bluehost is not renewed. So Wellston will be without a website for a while, well until the town can switch to the new webhost. ***Sniff*** ***Sniff***

But I'm looking forward to what's to come for me. I'll be able to pay off the balance I have at the dance studio plus pay my fee at the post office to get my mailbox for another year. I just need to get copies made for the booth I will be having next week. Then I should be receiving in the mail this week or something, like a paper that says what all Senator Inhofe has done to help those of us living with disabilities. I just want those I represent in the disability community to know the FACTS! Then I will be receiving in the mail information about the National Youth Leadership Network to have at my booth. So I'm doing as much as I can!

Everyone just pray I don't wear out next week. Because I will be going three to four day non-stop which potentially have me, whatever day I am doing nothing, sleeping close to the whole day and needing my walker to walk with. It's times like that I will say it SUCKS to live with a left/right Traumatic Brain Injury!
