Hi all. Not much happening in my life, which is good. Unfortunately my oldest brother can't say the same. I guess his dog got out of the yard and was hit by a car. My brother was devastated, Brody(the dog) was still alive and had to be taken to the vet and put down. His wife and kids are just heart broken. It was the sweetest little dog. So thinking about you bro.

Hey all. No chick flicks was my motto for a while, but latelyI have had an urge to see several movies that are considered chick flicks. I love Nathan Fillion and would like to check out Waitress. Themovie sounds amusing, a waitress(Keri Russell)wants to leave her husband(Jeremy Sisto), but get pregnant by him. She wakes pies and gives them amusing names, then eventually falls in love with her OBGY, Nathan Fillion. It has a tragedy attached to it, the writer/director/actress Adrienne Shelly was murdered before her movie came out. The next one is PS I Love You.A widow (Hillary Swank) discovers love letters written by her recently deceased husband (Gerald Butler) that are meant to help her begin the next chapter of her life. Seems like a sappy show about starting over after losing someone. It also has Lisa Kudrow, as Swanks friend, and Jeffery Dean Morgan and James Marsters being in it definitely makes me want to watch it more. The final one I will try to catch is Ten Inch Hero. This one caught my eye since it has the talented(IMO) Jensen Ackles, but once I started seeing stuff on it it looks like it will be interesting, at least from what I can find. Its about several people's love/sex life working in a sub shop. Also seeing Jensen Ackles with piercing, tats, and dyed mohawk, mmm mmm hot. Now three romantic comedies doesn't seem like much, but considering I have probably less than three in the last several years, three in a few monthes is alot. Oh well, I guess my inner chick is trying to come out.

I wouldn't have luck at all. I have had the worst year. I keep thinking things have got to get better, but then I get slapped down. I use to blog all the time, but haven't had anything up lifting to bring to the picture. So I am going to get out all the bad, and maybe it will help.

First my husband and I have had a rough year. We almost split up in July. We have a good relationship, we love each other. But he has problems keeping a job. This has caused money issues, and stress. He wanted to leave me, because he thinks he is a loser. This ended up causing a big fight and then the main issue came into play. He finally told me the truth as to what was wrong. He was starting to lose control. Mental illness runs in his family and he knew that he was losing control, going crazy as he put it. After a really bad episode( I am not going into all the details, but it could have ended up very bad) he finally got help. Turns out that he was diagnosed with symptoms of major depression, bi-polar(manic/depressive), and schizophrenia, he has symptoms of all three, but not all of the symptoms to be classified as just one. So he was diagnosed with non specific psychosis. He is now one medicine, and is doing much, much better. But has all ready told me that if he get diagnosed with full fledge schizophrenia, he would leave me. He doesn't want me to suffer. Since this is a possibility it is something that we have to keep in mind and worry about.

He ended up losing a job since he was hospitalized, but was able to get unemployment. Unfortunately we ended up falling farther and farther behind. We almost lost our house, but was able to save it by getting help from our mortgage company. We are struggling to get back on top, or at least the middle. He now has a job, that I think he will be able to keep, but doesn't pay well. So we have all ready told everyone in our families that Christmas will be null and void with us. I feel bad about it, but paying my bills have to have a priority.

Before all of my husbands medical problems started I had a cyst form on my wrist. Luckily it isn't cancerous and I was able to get it removed. There was a 1 in 5 chance that it would come back. Wouldn't you know it that was one odd I won, I just noticed that the cyst has come back about 1/2 an inch away from my scar of the last cyst. And I can barely make payments for the last surgery. So I am just SOL with this one. Plus all of the stress has caused my hair to start to fall out and I have broken out with severe acne. The acne is finally clearing up, but I don't think that thinness of my hair will get better. Plus I really need to see my dentist, but owe him money and can't get my teeth fixed.

There have been some positives I guess. We both quit smoking, couldn't afford to keep on smoking. Unfortunately I have gained about 10 pound from that, but did get back on my diet and will hopefully lose that weight.

I am trying to stay positive, I know there are people out there with worse problems, so I try to stay up. But it has been hard. I know I sound like I am whining, I am really not. I haven't gotten this out with any one. I really have no one to talk to. I don't have a lot of friends and the ones I do have are also friends with my husband and we want to keep most of this on hush hush. Since no one I know comes here, it is a nice place to get it all out and get some friendly feedback. I am going to try to stay positive. 2008 has to be a better year than 2007. So crossing my fingers and holding out for December to be brighter into a better year.

Rachel

Oh another positive, I have discovered Supernatural and the gorgeous Jensen Ackles, that has made the year a little better:)

Hope everyone has a happy Thanksgiving!!!

Hi all. I really need to get a good blog in here. I haven't really done so in a while. I have had a lot happen lately that would be nice to get out and get some advice on it, but can't seem to get around to it. I will just have to get some time and get in here. I will try to do that in the next few days. I have been reading some of the blogs, but sometimes don't post. So i will be back in the next few days.

Rachel

Wow, no longer am I evil Bert, now I have moved up to a Reagle Beagle, not really sure what that is, but BOO-YAH. And I want to thank the men from Supernatural. I change my banners and have been forum with Supernatural and I move up. I just got into the show, but I really like looking at Jensen Ackles HOT!!
