Drippings out of my brain

I just looked at my page view count for today. 8 people looked at my blog, yesterday 7 or something. People actually are interested in what I have to say, impressive!

So, here I am thinking, wrestling with my thoughts, working certain issues out here. So here are just some random stuff that I have been thinking about. And now the world of the internet is going to see a little bit into this.

Earlier tonight I went into CVS. I asked where the razors are and bubble bath. (OK, like men never taken a bubble bath before, but anyway...) Before you think that I have gone off the deep end, let me explain. When I was in the hospital they were talking about ways to relax and taking a bubble bath was one of them. And they encouraged the men in the group not to knock it. So I tried it once or twice and did find it quite relaxing.

With that said, let me get back to my story. I could tell that the employee was controlling herself trying not to laugh at this very unshaven rugged guy asking where the bubble bath was. She did a good job at not laughing, but still. And no, I did not buy any bubble bath at all. All that they had was too flowery and too girly. I am a man afterall. 

So this leads up to my question. Are there specific things that men and women should not do and vica versa? Should a man get a manicure or pedicure? Should a woman do "man's" work? And when I say mans work, I  mean like heavy lifting, working as construction worker on the street, etc. I am probably opening pandora's box here. This is not meant in any way, shape or form to be bashing of either gender. I am just trying to understand things better on both ends.

Comments are welcome, but no bashing please. Now that I am publishing this blog, I am gonna hide! :o



Sincerely yours,

Mike

The Weekend

It seems that I am very quick to fall back into old patterns. Oh well, tomorrow is always a new day. People who get excited really unnerve me. It doesn't matter if it is a cheerful excitement or if it is aggressive, it just makes me jumpy and I do not understand it at all.

I finally got the letter via email that I was waiting for from my old insurance company indicating benefits have stopped. I needed this letter so that I can go into the next phase of my life. I didn't get the room that I applied for a couple of weeks ago either. This is quite ok though, I really believe that particular room wasn't God's will and I am really at peace about the decision.

Meanwhile I continue my ever ending task of decluttering my room. I am getting there, slowly but surely. One day I will be on top of it.

Well, this is a pretty boring blog entry, but just needed to put some thoughts to screen. Next week is a brand  new week!


Blessings,

Mike

Good morning everyone. 

I just got out of the hospital yesterday.

  This time it was a much more "interesting experience!"

 This time I got much more out of it than  previous admissions.

 Things have finally "clicked" for me. 

I need to take ALL of my medications daily and as prescribed. 

I need to eat 3 times a day whether I want to or not, and I need regular sleep.

 This was all explained to me in a way that I never heard before and made sense. 

Basically if I don't do this then it is an EPIC FAIL! 

Well That's my revelation in a nutshell.

Things are not as bad as I thought and I DO have control over certain feelings.


Blessings,

Mike
