For those of you who are fans of this journal you'll be happy to see I'm back, and as you can see, I've made a few changes....again. (lol) The worst thing about being a perfectionist is that I'm never satisfied!

Between some health problems I'd been having, and the fact that I didn't think anyone read this, I'd seriously considered giving up this journal. But I've received some really nice e-mails from my readers lately. Telling me how this journal helps them, and they hope I continue. I even got an overseas phone call one afternoon from my ex-husband. I guess he was hoping my lack of journal entires meant I was dead, and he could stop the alimony payments. (lol)

I've decided it was time to have a complete renovation of all 7 of my websites. Sad to say, many hadn't been touched in ages. As you can see, I've already started on this website. I've already finished the following websites:

* Misty's Window On The World - my homepage - all new graphics and information.
(Nov. 2006 Changed to Misty's Heart & Soul)

* FMS-CFIDS Information - Info about my illness - all new graphics, information, links.
(Nov. 2006 Changed to FM-CFS Resources)

* Misty Designs - free background sets - All new graphics and backgrounds.

* Diamond Award - award for teririfc webpages - all new award and graphics.

* Poetry Award - for superb writings - all new award and graphics.

* Hope Award - for inspirational websites - all new award and graphics.

* Difference Award - for people who've made a difference - all new award, graphics.

I've finished my journal website. And I've made some changed to my HTML website. So now the last one to redo will by my website on violence - Violence Has to Stop.

Speaking of violence, I'd like to know how the price of unleaded regular gas can go up more than 30 cents in a week! You can't tell me it's "normal" for gas to raise so high in a short period of time. Someone is getting rich, and it isn't me. It's a shame this administration is in bed with the oil companies. Just when we could use a leader who actually....LEAD!

I just finished watching the best movie. I've only watched it like 10 times already. But I love the actors, the music, and ohh...the dancing! Makes me want to get up out of my wheelchair and glide across the room. Ok, well maybe not that. The movie - Shall We Dance. Oh yeah.

My Mom and I have been eating breakfast at Burger King lately. I'm amazed at just how good it is. And the coffee, to die for! Really. Not to mention we can both eat and it's only $6.35! In south Florida that's hard to come by. A normal breakfast for 2 will cost you about $20 - $25.00

After breakfast we went to Wal-Mart to pick up a few groceries. Everyone who knows me knows my dislike for shopping at Wal-Mart. Don't get me wrong, it's a great store. They have everything, and you can actually afford it! What I hate is the noise, the crowds, the whole atmosphere. From the minute you walk in the place, until the moment you breath a sigh of relief as you leave, it's NOISE, NOISE, NOISE. Women screaming over the P.A, system, "I NEED A CSM AT REGISTER 22!!!!!" It makes me want to go in there one day with a machine gun and just take everyone out. (lol)

"We have a breaking news report: a woman in south Florida has just gone berserk in a super Wal-Mart store, murdering hundreds before turning the gun on herself. Film at 11pm!"

I think Wal-Mart needs a new slogan. Instead of "The low price leader" it should be: "Wal-Mart - where shopping is a nightmare"

I just finished my weekly shopping in hell. Also known as Wal-Mart to all you Target shoppers. (lol) But when your medicine and insurance suck down 80% of your income, you have to resort to drastic measures. Such as shopping at Wal-Mart. They've got a windmill in the garden department that runs on electric. It would look so great by our pond outback, but at $78 we won't be getting that anytime soon. Maybe for Christmas? (hint hint Santa)

I figured my night wasn't completely ruined until I filled up the car, and since I was on fumes it was time. I've taken notice the last few days of "cheap" prices. Tonight the cheapest around was $2.65 for regular. $32 later the car was full. In a one week period gas has risen over 30 cents per gallon. I sure wish it was ME getting rich from raping the public!

You're not seeing a mirage, this is another new background. (lol) I don't know about you, but that other color made me fairly nauseous. I'd come in here to write an entry and I'd gag. This is much more peaceful for me. (The original background written about was turquoise)

I woke up this morning feeling worse than usual. One of those things I can't put my finger on exactly what's different. I've been working myself to death trying to finish my renovations. The Violence Has to Stop website has been a lot more work than I'd anticipated. But then if you're going to do something, do it right! It had been over 2 years since I'd checked information, and links. Turns out most of the addresses and phone numbers have changed on the State by State Info. So I've had to redo all 50 states along with the other information already within the website.

I should have worked on the Violence site today, but I couldn't stand the look of this website a moment longer. I've also got a ton of work to do on my nephew's website....WWII Remembered. It's a great site, and very interesting. I'm no real fan of history, and I've found myself being really interested in it. I've also said that I'll make him a website about the Civil War. NOOooo not anther 4 year war!! (lol) The things I do for the people I adore. :) Well I'm off to bed, me and my migraine.
