Yes–you! If you are reading this, then, well–I Love You!

Ever heard the song:

Smile, don’t u know God loves u. Come 2 think of it, I love u 2! Take the time to smile at someone, and before you’re through, someone will be smiling back at you!

Well, unlike my more business-type “I love you” this time…its one way deep in the center of my heart and soul!

• so much lovin’ goin’ ’round on this blog, that its a-keepin’ me goin’…thnx!

• i don’t feel the “business” pressure of commenting, responding, etc. b/c well, doctor’s orders are “do NOT work”

• yay, as u see, i’m also breakin’ free of any grammar constraints, typing freely without capitalizing when i’m ’supposs’ ta …well, i’m in the mood to break some rules! Wanna’ join me!?

• regarding memes: there are certain ones that i’ve always had my eye on, and hoped to be tagged with one day; for example, the Thinking Blog Award. Now, yippee!! Thanks ProBloggerMom for taggin’ me for somethin’ that is SO totally me: both personally & professionally: The Rockin’ Girl Blogger Badge…come on now, common now, can U deny me this one?
• 
  • Oh and as for Liz and her SOB (successful outstanding blog badge), we’re very dear colleagues now having connected on a very personal level simply by writing my “Changing The World” 3 Part Series.
    [Yay, and the fact that we mingle in similar circles helped a bit too...woo hoo to networking!]
  • • We email, gmail talk, and skype here and there, that my own “Hello, Liz, give me my badge” emails get lost in the shuffle. Hopefully, this post, in the midst-of my recovery, will give her reason to slap me my long awaited badge…hee hee whadda ya think? Hey, Liz…do ya see me now?
    • Honestly, I don’t have the brain power or patience to search my past posts, but in the travels in the blogosphere, I saw the Rockin’ Girl Blogger Badge…and I was thinking “I so want this”…and I don’t know if I publicly wrote it that pushed PBMom to put me on her short list, but i’m sure glad i made ‘the cut’ And, wow…3 of your other bloggers, would definitely have been on my top 5 list to tag next. Amanda, Gayla and Sully.
    • So, I’m tagging, with apologies if these are double-tags, yet trying to go further out into the blogosphere:
      • Kelly, LittleMummy, Leigh, Janet, and Heather

• Now, talk about total serendipity here: I won Joel Comm’s The Next Internet Millionaire Blogger Contest of a Saaaaweet Ipod Nano!
  • Yay, girl…I am rockin’! And now, geez dare I find some rollerskates to roll with the tunes. Nay, don’t worry…I have inline skates (which I’m like a total-speed roller-blader…that once I’m off bed-rest, I’m takin’ out of the storage unit, buying our girls each their own and start rockin’ and rollin’ 2007-style!) Our 7 and 6-year old keeps asking me to teach them…no reason to deny this free-spirited awesome sport any longer.
    • How did I win? Well, I’d really love to say my post was soooo creative that I fancied him to take notice….NOT! hee hee…I was the random winner for simply having posted about his incredible new program.
• Now, here’s yet another unsuspected doozey of my hard-work finally paying off and getting the attention, I–and my partnerships–sooo deserve. Doug Barger found my PRWeb.com free $200 press release, and he personally contacted over a dozen, which now is 60+ internet marketers himself to take advantage of this offer!
  • Now, don’t forget this dude’s name, cuz’ once his site is up and runnin’ It’ll be my pleasure and honor to be one of the first, complimentary review: ArticlesInMyInbox.com…now, with that title, he has me totally intrigued; but his ever-so-kind gentle-businessman’s way; he’s assuring my health and relaxation first.
• Other miscellaneous link-lovin’ and kind comments were shared here, here and here…and well, if this is not a testament to “planting the right seeds in your blog for fruits to blossom” I don’t know what else is…and, well, thnx for noticin’

• Now, with all this love, high-time for a personal update, to fill your curiosity that only my dear, dear buddies: Char, (Girl– i can *not* wait for my iPod nano, ya got me shakin’), Dawud, Easton, Ed, Gayla & Wendy, got full updates (as well as my dear Team: AmandaB, AmandaH, Charlon, Jen, Jenny, Linda, Matt, Teresa):

tears keep shedding these days of actually brain pain and emotional, physical and mental exhaustion. Family is working hard to turn those tears into ones of glee, joy, happiness and peace…I had that moment when I received your flowers, emails, comments, and respecting my privacy by not calling me via our land-line. Being Daddy’s girl, he arrived last night and will stay as long as he can…wow, what a help he’s been to our family thusfar.

a. I’m *not* working online, but for mental respite, sometimes ~1/2hour at a time, try to peep around for again, the tears of faith. [this post has taken me now 3 days to write...]

b. I didn’t have anything acute, no blood or fluid in my brain causing immediate brain surgery.

c. i’m presently on medically-observed bed-rest, I actually have to report to MDs everyday with my diet, meds, and new or existing pain.

d. trying to desparately get home to CT to my parents, siblings, and extended family.

e. i have inflammation of my brain, tension spots, and now on highly-addictive-neurotics–hence the need for daily follow-up with MDs, so I don’t get addicted.

f. my partial paraylisis remains stable, but we’re trying to prevent my fainting, passingout, and blackouts that i’ve been experiencing for over 3 weeks now, due to (i) low sugar and highly dehydrated (ii) heat-wave problems (87+ degree weather), (iii) the fact that I only have 2/3 blood flow and central nervous system flow compared to 100% flow, due to the obstruction of spinal cord. 5mm of my brain (cerebral) tonsils seeps into my spinal cord, causing my pain and suffering, and (iv) high tension and anxiety-levels (mostly due to the fact that I’ve been calling my own family practitioner every day I’ve fainted to schedule an appointment, and they *never* call me back)

g. blacking-out/losing concisenesses and scaring my girls for 3hours when I was loop-sided and screaming in Brain Pain…and I got *no* medical attention or direction. In desperation, I contacted my neurosurgeon (which is out-of-network, and out-of-insurance-protocol), their nurse immediately sent me to the Emergency Room for emergency CT Scans, and my neurosurgeon followed-up with me while in the hospital and daily this week.

h. can u believe that I only talked to my own family practitioner on Friday after 3 weeks, hospitalization, and an “urgent” phone call to the head of her practice, threatening malpractice lawsuit, because of her negligence…and, the fact that my low sugar, high dehydration, and anxiety could’ve been prevented with one blood test, and moderating the drugs I’m presently on…basically, my hospitalization could have been prevented!

i.Do I *dislike* doctors!?…Only incompetent ones! Now, yes no eating and drinking enough water is my fault…and I will *not* put any “buts”…

j.a ton of mental pain is the fact that my girlsf (7,6, and 4) saw me admitted to the hospital, I had IVs, monitors of my heart, lungs, and brain. I was hookedup all over the place…and they are still very weakened by the ’scare’. I *hate* to see their suffering while I need their strenght and love now. needless to say, I have full faith, God will lead me so I, and my family, will prevail. Hence I’ll be adding a “like this post plugin, not for a beer (as I don’t drink), nor coffee (since I don’t drink caffeiene, so X to tea, sodas, etc.)…I need Ensure!

k. so if u liked this post, buy me a Homemade vanilla Ensure Plus
