Clinically I Have Retrobulbar Neuritis
January 17th, 2009
I'm 40 years old...41 in April! ugh! I'm happily married with 4 kids, and I really have nothing to be unhappy about.
My father commmitted suicide 2 weeks before my 15th birthday. Ok, it's been 25 years, but it's not something you ever get over.
I always thought I wasn't good enough for him to stick around for. But now, I have clinical depression, anxiety, phobias and a touch of OCD.
I know now how my father felt. These demons are horrifying and almost killing me.
Somedays I feel so out of touch with life~like no one else could possibly understand what I'm going through.
I get so anxious that I make myself physically ill. I just want to stay in bed, but even then, it doesn't make me feel any better.
I have no friends~partly because I live in the country and partly because everyone keeps to themselves. I have given my phone numbers to my childrens' friends moms, and they never call.
Do they see that I'm just "weird"?? Can they sense that I am anxious and depressed??
I am so ridden with anxiety & so depressed that I am seriously thinking of committing myself to the psychiatric ward, just so that I can get some one on one help.
I see a psychologist now...I also see a psychotherapist. I am on 5 different meds...
It's a tough road, and I'm tired of going it alone. My poor husband... I feel so bad for him. He's trying so hard to help me and be there for the kids...I don't know what I'd do without him.
Is there anyone out there who would like to be email buddies.... I need someone who knows what I'm going through.

Also new here...
Hi, I'm suffering from depression and major irritability and occasional anxiety. I have some ocd as well. I'm 27, recently married and have a 3 year old daughter. Some days (today being one) I feel like my head's going to explode and just picking up my husbands clothes off the floor made me burst into tears! I have a few people I could talk to but tend not to as I don't think they really understand and my husband, although he wouldn't say it, I'm sure he thinks just pull yourself together. I'm worried my state of mind will affect our marriage and so it may help just to have someone with similar problems to communicate with.
Sorry about your father,like you say, that's not something you'd ever get over, I know I wouldn't so you've every right to still feel hurt.
If you want to chat anytime that'd be good.

Hi, I know just how you feel...I could just cry at any given moment...for no apparent reason! I'm very irritable and get so agitated sometimes, I just have to walk away! I usually take my iTouch and go into the bathroom and play Yahtzee just to calm down! lol
It's hard to tell people...but, you know what? I have started to let people know that I have been diagnosed with depression and anxiety. It hasn't really changed anything~I thought I might get a little more support from my siblings, but that hasn't happened. Don't be afraid to tell people. Some people have even opened up to me with their diagnoses!
Can you go to a psychologist? Or even a psychotherapist? They may be able to help you and help in your marriage.
For a long time, my husband ignored me and just took the kids and went out for the day. Fine with me! lol But, I took him to the dr. with me a few times and they were better able to explain things. I have bought books and borrowed books from the library....I try to read anything and everything I can about my "problems".
I am hanging on every day. I can honestly say that if I didn't have my husband, kids and Mom... I wouldn't be here right now.
It's a tough road. There are so many facets to all this...but I have a wonderful psychologist who is determined to help me through. I have just got to give it time.
And so do you! Please feel free to email me anytime...I don't know if I can print my email address on here so that we can skip this part... I'll try to figure that out!
Where do you live?? I'm in Massachusetts... cold, snowy and depressing!!!
Take a shower~use some pretty soaps and sprays~give yourself a foot massage~do something for YOU!!! I know how hard it is when you have a little one. My youngest is 6 and I know how hard it is to get some "alone time". But, do give it a try. You have to take care of you... no one else can do it for you! I'll try to take my own advice too!
Try to have a good day!

I couldn't help but read the posts you have been sharing. Now, I'm an 18 year guy and I have no business or medical background to really support what I'm going to say but if you're truly on the verge then at least hear me out.
I have always viewed depression as just a mental thing. Then again. i'm very naive. I say it's only mental and that you can simply get over it just because I had a very close friend who was on anti-depressants and it hurt me to see her on them. But I noticed that if she wasn't on them and the knowledge of her being medically diagnosed with depression went out the window and she just got in a good mood/attitude, she was the best she could ever be.
Again, I noticed that you said you would go 'play yahtzee in the bathroom' just to feel better. Well that adds on to my supposed "theory" in which you just do something to forget or actually forget that you have depression and just 'do something for yourself' that'll make you feel better and then actually be better. Just with the comfort of knowing how supportive your husband is seems to keep to you going and I am truly happy for you. You have to go on everyday looking at the positives and just being optimistic about everything. Don't allow little irrelevant things ruin your day. There's so much more in this world that are truly terrible. An 11-yr boy in Zimbabwe lost both his parents due to the civil war they had and is now trying to take of himself while rasing his little 3-yr old brother. He crys everyday missing his parents and wanting some help. But them being gone is not going to let him give up on himself and especially on his little brother. Yes, it is hard, it can be extremely hard but you have to keep on. It's sad to say but there is always someone somewhere who has it worse. AND TAKE YOUR OWN ADVICE!! Ha, you do have to take care of yourself.
I'm really sorry about what happened to your father and I do believe that could have some effect on you today. But listen to this, you are not your father. You are you. You will set out how you want to live and not how your father did. I apologize if this is coming off offensive but I'm very empathetic and it actually hurts me to know that you're going through pain and I really want to see you get better. For the sake of your kids, your husband, and most of all yourself.
Take care and be happy!
Peace and Love,

Hi Jorge, I appreciate your comments and thoughts, but I have to disagree with some. (You knew this was coming, huh?! lol)
I know that if you haven't been depressed...as deeply depressed as I have been, where suicide seemed like the only option for me, then you can't really say anything about it.
If you haven't been through it yourself, you just can't possibly know what it is like.
As far as my going into the bathroom to play Yahtzee on my iTouch, that is my way of removing myself from a situation that could get bad.
My agitation and irritability has caused many bad times in my home and I'd much rather avoid that at all costs!
Your friend may have just been going through a period of depression. But, I have a genetic disposition to depression and anxiety.
Believe me, I know there are worse things in the world to be depressed about.... THIS is NOT how I want to live my life!!
Thanks for your comment!
I wish you nothing but happiness.

True Story
Ha I did see somthing like that coming. And you're right I haven't been diagnosed with depression. It may be possible that my friend only had it for a period. But she did mention that her parents have been diagnosed with depression also. Nonetheless, I can't put myself in your shoes.
I hope that whatever takes you away from those anxious and depressed moments in your day takes you FAR FAR AWAY so you don't have to worry anymore ha.
Take care
Peace and Love,

Hi again,
In answer to your questions, I'm in Torquay, England, a tiny town by the sea - cold and wet!!
I have been referred to a counsellor twice by my doctor, first time I didn't take to her, she was so timid she made me more anxious! Second one I saw recently and she gave me a load of 'worksheets' to look at which were a bit patronising I thought so I haven't been back. I'm looking into hypnotherapy at the moment!
I think that's a good idea to take hubby to the docs with me though so thanks for that.
And I know exactly what you mean about taking your own advice, why is it so difficult to do that though?!!
Would be great to exchange e-mails and keep in touch. Take care of yourself.

Pasir Panjang Beach, Redang Island, Malaysia. Photo by Mukherjeesaikat.
Malaysia Travel Asia Map Malaysia Map Malaysia Pictures
Malaysia is hot and humid all year. Good beaches are costly, particularly the premium stretches which are often owned by exclusive - and expensive - beach hotels. They are, however, superbly run and well maintained, so if you can afford them you won't be disappointed.
Kuala Lumpur, the capital, is not especially interesting, though safe and has great dining options. The beaches near the city are polluted, but superb resort islands are easily reachable by domestic flights such as Air Asia, a Malaysian low-cost airline, or ferries, so perhaps bypass KL and head straight to those paradise destinations for the best beach holiday in Malaysia.
There are direct international flights between foreign destinations such as Singapore, Hong Kong, Bangkok and Jakarta (Indonesia) and some of the best beach resorts.
Tropical wildlife is often very nearby or even on the sand, facilities are generally efficient and sophisticated, people are friendly and hospitable, it's fairly crime-free and Malaysian food is delicious and varied.
• the humidity is energy-sapping, costs can be wallet-sapping and it's often very commercial. • some islands will require a lengthy and potentially bouncy boat ride to get there. • the mainland coasts and some resort islands are suffering from waste overload due to increased tourism and poor management which will lead to environmental problems sooner or later, unless strict measures are taken. • hawkers can be a pain on the more accessible public areas.
April to September is the season for pleasant tropical conditions, with temperatures generally ranging from 20°C to 30°C. Avoid beach holidays in the monsoon (rainy) season when some hotels are closed, boat rides are rough, sands are debris-strewn and shabby, waters choppy and unclear and sunshine in short supply.
- from November to February on the east coast of the mainland as well as islands such as Tioman, Sabah and Sarawak. - from September to December on the west coast.
n.b. Pantai means beach, palau means island in Malaysian language.
Less well-known than the lavish island resorts of Langkawi and Tioman, Pangkor Island is more of a low-key holiday destination, located off the country's west coast and home to unspoilt golden sand and great Malaysian cuisine. One of the best strands is pretty Pasir Giam with the offshore islet of Giam which is walkable at low tide. Pasir Giam is 2km north of Teluk Nipah.
Head to Pasir Bogak, the island's largest stretch of sand, for marine activities or Nipah Bay, a fine length of clean golden sand with crystal-clear waters.
Emerald Bay, on a tiny, privately owned island near Pangkor Island is often listed among the top ten world's best beaches. The bay is a perfect crescent, with soft golden sand and calm emerald-green water.
Teluk Belanga is the property of the upmarket Pangkor Laut Resort and only guests can enjoy its elegant facilities. In spite of its commercial success, much of the island remains untouched, with plenty of wildness and natural beauty just outside this sophisticated resort. Teluk Belanga is a perfect honeymoon or romantic destination.
Langkawi (aka Langkaei) island.
The beaches on this well-developed island are regarded as some of the world's most secluded and picturesque by many travel specialists. Unfortunately most of the best coves are private, occupied by luxury beach resorts such as the beautiful crescent of Datai, home to the top-end resorts Datai Langkawi and The Andaman.
Most tourism lies along the south coast near the airport and the capital town of Kuah. If you are looking for action, try the lively, fine-grain Pantai Cenang, fringed by waterfront bars and restaurants that really buzz around sunset. The Underwater World aquarium nearby is a grand place to keep kids quiet for a while. Pantai Cenang is at the south-western tip of the island near the airport. Next to it is the more laid-back and family-friendly Pantai Tengah. Pantai Kok on the west coast is also pleasant with up-market resorts and Oriental Village, a popular shopping centre. Head north to the long sandy stretch of Tanjung Rhu for natural beauty with mangroves, limestone caves, cliffs and a great view of the little islands nearby. It also hosts a couple of luxury hotels such as the Four Seasons beach resort. Pasir Tengkorak (Skull Sand!), a small sheltered public strand backed by lush jungle, is Langkawi's hidden gem and a magical spot for a dip and a picnic.
Langkawi also offers a handful of sensational diving or snorkelling sites, especially Palau Payar Marine Park for the best coral reefs, 45 minutes by boat from Kuah. Day trips and tours are available. The best season for Langkawi is November-May, when the sky is clear and the humidity is low, but rainfall here on the west coast is lower than in the east, so most of the year is acceptable. The worst time to be here is September-November. Langkawi is situated 30 km off the mainland, an hour's flight from Kuala Lumpur or a bouncy boat ride.
Tioman Island
Tioman, one of the most spectacular islands in Malaysia is relatively unspoilt despite increasing development. Located 32 km off the country's east coast, Tioman is a great destination for nature lovers, golfers and especially underwater enthusiasts due to close offshore reefs and crystal clear waters. The underwater environment is protected as the Tioman Marine Park. Tioman has small golden sandy beaches backed by tropical jungle but watch out for aggressive monitor lizards near the jungle and monkeys stealing golf balls. One of the best palm-fringed beaches is Tioman, property of the vast Berjaya Tioman Resort, though this de luxe hotel has mixed reviews.
For cheap hotels on Tioman try the seaside town of Kampung Tekek. A popular 7 km, 2-3 hour jungle hike from Tekek gets the hardened trekkist to the total serenity of Juara, but if that's a bit too much like hard work rent a motorcycle, take a jeep taxi or boat taxi. The northern end of the island is home to laid-back Salang, close to some of island's best dive sites and favoured by divers and backpackers. It is always crowded and cluttered in the high season, though somehow maintains its charm. Head south by water taxi (also walkable but punishing!) to sheltered Monkey Bay for more peaceful snorkelling and sloth. Panuba, (a 40 minute walk from Tekek) south of Monkey Bay and ABC (Air Batang Chalets, a 70 minute walk), are both popular resorts and along the coastal trekking route. Best March-September.
This is another perfect Malaysian island exploited in the nicest way by posh resorts, a dozen at the last count; it possesses the usual assets of powder white coral sand and warm turquoise seas.
What makes Redang a bit special is the superb underwater life in the encircling Radang Island Marine Park, making this a prime target for scuba and snorkel addicts. Water temperatures hover around 28C and the best season is March-October. Redang is 50 mins by boat from the mainland. The largest and most popular strand is Pasir Panjang (Long Sand. Photo at top) on the east side of the island where most of resorts lie. Redang's finest and arguably the best Malaysia beach is Teluk Dalum (Deep Bay) on the north shore, with powder white sand and glassy waters; however it (sadly) belongs to a world-class hotel, Berjaya Beach Resort & Spa.
The Islands of Perhentian (meaning 'the place to stop'), have been a must-stop place for budget travelers for many years, especially the smaller isle of Perhentian Kecil. All five islands are part of the Radang Island Marine Park and they encompass some of the world's most seductive beaches, along with world class diving and plenty of budget Malaysia accommodation. However, due to tourism overload the islands' marine life is in danger, with coral shrinking and garbage growing, though a handful of pristine beaches are still irresistible.
If you are a party goer, head to the popular Pasir Panjang (Long Sand, not to be confused with Redang Island's Long Sand!) on the east coast of Perhentian Kecil for action.
Alternatively try Teluk Aur (Coral Bay) on the west coast of the biggest island, Perhentian Besar. This is a little more upper-class and family-friendly resort, with tranquil beaches such as long and secluded Teluk Dalam (Deep Bay, also known as Flora Bay), or the superb swimming zone of Teluk Pauh, occupied by a couple of large resort hotels.
Finally, for peace and quiet boat out to the lovely sandy strip on tiny Palau Rawa (Rawa Island), 16 km off Mersing. It's only accessible by ferry from the mainland or a 30 minute trip from both Besar and Kecil Islands. Travelers can stay at one of Rawa's two resorts.
This park consists of 30 kms of golden sand embraced by cliffs and jungle shrieking with wildlife. It is well worth the hassle to get there for some of the finest beaches in Malaysia, forest streams, waterfalls, 185 species of bird and plenty of animals - including gibbons, macaques, turtles, wild boars and crocs. The park has chalets with an open-air café, hostels and a camping site near some good beaches, but the best ones, Turtle where turtles lay eggs and Golden, both require a permit to enter and are a long walk (7km - 10 km) from the park office. Or a hire a boat. No contest there, then! The best time to go is April-September. Turtle season is March - September. Temperatures range from 23C to 32C with high humidity.

Scott Herman says straight boys DO wear spandex!
Spotted these hot pics of MTV Real World alum turned fitness guru / underwear model… Scott Herman showing off his sexy spandex Captain America outfit over at WickedGayBlog and had to share. I have to say he is definitely surpassing the average costumed fanboy geek in that spandex. He should wear it to San Diego Comicon and show the fanboys how its done.
I wonder if he's into costumes or is just a Captain America fan. Probably a fan as he has a Cap Shield in his home. Of course seeing these pics sent me searching the net for more info and I found this video to REALLY make it interesting. It's a good thing Scott Herman is hot. He misspelled "Nothing" on the preview frame of his video.
after the jump there's a little bonus… his videos on how to shave your chest and his follow up requested by fans on how to shave your groin.

IŌĆÖm going to start practicing a reduction in
Katakana English this term. Words such as `izzu` and `doggu` IŌĆÖd like

I am a media professional from Munich/Germany, enjoying the outdoors, a good book and - obviously - travelling.
Ulrich has completed online and offline ID verification.
The reservation was canceled 6 days before arrival. This is an automated posting.
First time with airbnb for me and my friends, and it was a great esperience. Ulrich did not meet us because we arrived when he left Munich, but all was perfect; we found parking, keys, towels how he said. He gift us fresh fruits and cold beers, very appreciated. The apartament is good for 4 people, clean and with all things, 200m from metro station and 10 minute from The center by walk. A nice base ti visit Munich and The Oktoberfest.
This place was great. Warm, comfy, and so close to a train station. Do not hesitate !
Great place, great location, great host. Highly recommend.
Ulrich ist ein toller Gastgeber! Die Wohnung ist super gelegen. Alles war perfekt vorbereitet und wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt! Jederzeit gerne wieder!
The reservation was canceled the day before arrival. This is an automated posting.
Ulrich welcomed us with a 5 star service: chocolates on the pillows and towels ready to be used! He's a very friendly host. The apartment proved to be as the pictures shows: clean, handy and well located.
Great location and very clean. Ulrich let us stay at very late notice which was very helpful.
I stayed at Ulrich's apartment during a speaking role at the famous DLD conference in Munich. It's a short drive away from the center of the city. The apartment is fully furnished, with a living room/kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. Note, this is a primary residence so you share the space with the belongings of the host. This place is perfect for the working professional or Europe bound couple. You have full access to the kitchen for cooking. There is a small fridge for storing left overs. The WIFI works great and was fast enough for my needs. I found the bed comfortable and loved waking up to the view out the window of quaint European rooftops. The location is superb for exploring local shops, cafes, and restaurants. Being on the top floor affords some nice views and also means the walk up 4 flights of stairs keeps your legs in shape. Ulrich answered my calls ahead of time and was in close touch during check in. We had a slight delay but he took care of it in the end. Thanks Ulrich! - Joe, Airbnb Co-founder
it was realy nice to have Ulrich here with us great peole respect one love
Left the place super clean and tidy, thanks!
Uli was the perfect guest -- kind, respectful, and he was really enjoyable to talk to. It was a pleasure hosting him on his trip around New England, and I'd recommend him to any airbnb host.
I must admit that there is a certain amount of wonder that comes with meeting people when they are at "the crossroads", so to speak - but there's also a kind of serendipity that follows when getting the lay of the land, the maps of one's possible ways forward - the enless options that constitute how we decide to interpret the "divinging rods" that cross our paths. I have one comment to make "Blueberry Hill Road" - nuff said. Five Stars: * * * * *

Homes of people I visit: somebodies, nobodies, anybodies in between. Updated wheneverly.
Saturday, July 25
Egill Egilsson, Iceland
I met Egill in March when I was in Reykjavik for DesignMarch, the city's first official design week, and he was kind enough--bold enough--to host some 50 of us design junkies to his home in beautiful Kjalarnes, a quiet area of Reykjavik. As much as I loved trolling the city streets for design, a dinner party at a designer's home, accessible only by a big long bus driven by a man in an Icelandic sweater, was Homebodies heaven.
Egill lives here with his wife Elisabet and their three children, ages 3-18. The house is on land that belongs to Elisabet's family, who once ran a farm here called Varmidalur, which means warm valley. In this post are photos of the exterior, on a evening when it wasn't so warm in the valley. I'll post interior shots in the next few days.
I love Iceland. This is on the way to Kjalarnes. I wasn't kidding about the driver's sweater! I spent much of my time in Iceland considering buying one of these, especially since I landed there on my birthday. I emailed friends about it. Invited people on Facebook to vote yes or no on my related status update. But it just wasn't sitting right with me, and so I left the country without one (though I did buy a very cool scarf). In the second photo below, the mountain on the left is Helgafell, a dormant volcano.
The house is tiled with a Brazilian slate called Mustang, and Egill used stainless-steel fasteners instead of the traditional darker ones to make it more interesting. "I like it better to have the structure as a part of the final appearance," he says. "The system saves energy, because it allows for insulation between the tails and the concrete wall, which brakes the wind cooling during the winter and is substantial. The tiles fulfill my criteria: beautiful, maintenance-free and energy saving. Perfect." A 1955 Buick sits in the driveway. (Sorry I don't have a better picture of the entire house. I think I was too cold to venture out into the field of snow, but I wish I had.)
I like the doormat. Around the corner is the kitchen, from the outside. Toward the back of the house you see another home in the distance. Elisabet's parents live here.
Egill says he normally removes the decorative lights from the house in early January after the holidays, but he decided to keep them up this year. "Lights are the one of the things we use to lighten our mood during the dark winter," he says. "It definitely helps."

Cool, Green and the best Coffee in the world
doesn't seem true, here is the link to the embassy website.
Carl, some taxes are exempted, others aren't. Also, the vehicle evaluation process is arbitrary and often incorrect. In any case, you now need to have your permanent Pensionado status before the importation or there will be no exemption. Afterwards, there is the inspection and Registration process to deal with at several levels of government. When all is said and done, you have a North American car in a foreign country that has a lower resale value than a vehicle that is built for this market, together with less opportunity for parts and service. No website. email@example.com
I assume you are speaking of "used" vehicles as concerns "arbitrary" valuations. It is true that for what ever model you have of a car, the highest valued version of that car will be selected to apply taxes to. The other is that the Aduana here in Chiriqui is much better about this than the Aduana in Colon (worst) or Panama City.
Also this is very much affected by the "aduanero" you use. A good one is the key to correct valuation.
I assume you're referring to the following statement: "Tax exemption to import a new car every two years." Notice that it says "a new car," and that means brand new. You still have to pay shipping, so why not buy that brand new car in Panama with specifications that the mechanics are familiar with?
The best reasons for a USA car, are safety standards and availability of factory parts long term.
If you're in the States, sure. If you're in Panama not so much.
Till a local bus or truck tags you. Or you roll the vehicle one foggy night coming up the Boquete/David road in the well designed drainage systems. Nice to have 8 airbags surrounding you.
Everyone just do yourself a BIG favor and get your car from Keith. Those of us who didn't... lesson learned.
do you have a website?
By the way, the above article was authored by Don Winner in 2010. Vehicle importation has only gotten tougher and more expensive since then as new minimum taxes based on the age of the car have been implemented in order to gradually upgrade the general age and quality of vehicles on the road.
Keith can you tell me where to find them? And how long you have to change it if you drive it down. I am guessing that it would be right away if you have a pan drivers lic? Thanks

Flags in the Falkland Islands are being flown at half mast as a mark of respect for the late King Fahd of Saudi Arabia. Crown Prince Abdullah, King Fahads successor, announced the death on Sunday.
By J. Brock (FINN)
As Crown Prince, King Fahd helped resolved the conflict in Lebanon as well as working for peace between Israel and the Palestinians. The King ascended his throne in 1982 and prior to that, he was a Crown Prince for seven years. He was a keen ally of the United States.
King Fahds death was expected because he had been in deteriorating health since suffering a stroke in 1995. Prime Minister, Tony Blair, said that King Fahd had great vision and leadership and that he inspired his countrymen for a quarter of a century.

Here's my version of "Heart of Courage" by Two Steps From Hell. I do not own this song, it's merely a cover made via my guitar & BOSS Loop Station. Hope you like it! :D (yes i know i hit a sour note, but one note doesn't kill the whole song right? lol)
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Omg omg omg omg this is amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing love it 5/5 10/10 100/100 10000/10000 1000000000000000/100000000000000.
I'm glad you love it so much!
Rated 5 / 5 stars
Excellent cover. This would work well in a movie somewhat like the hobbit probably better than the original due to the acoustic guitar feel in the actual hobbit soundtrack.
Great song.
Rated 5 / 5 stars
FREAKING AWESOME! Can you put it on Youtube, please? Oh and TABS PLEASE!
Oh man dude, I made this like 2 years ago and haven't played this song since haha. I have no clue where my tabs are. But, for you, I'll look up some new ones to get my bearings, and rewrite this song and make a YouTube video for you. Maybe I'll get it to you for Christmas ;D
To be totally honest, I've actually been debating to redo this cover for a month or two now but I just haven't had the motivation. So thank you, because you've given me the motivation. I do plan on making some tweaks (I.e. adding distortion, percussion, etc.) so if you have some ideas and want to add input, please feel free to send me a private message, I'd love to hear your suggestions

Martha eat your heart out. I labeled 70 boxes yesterday with vintage-inspired labels. It's part of my big office makeover. I can't show you the office yet because it's a disaster. Anyway, it took almost all day to organize the boxes and create the labels but I feel really organized now:
The shelves were an early Christmas present from Mr. LBB. This area is a hallway behind my office….technically it's a "butler's pantry" for serving food and storage but it's the perfect area to store supplies right off my work area. The wall space above the countertop was just empty space. The area used to be a huge sunken living room before we remodeled a few years ago. We added a wall at the end of the room to create the storage space.
Here's what it looked like two weeks ago:
One of the most gratifying things for me is finishing up a yearly album. I'm always usually about a year behind but that time allows me to make sure every photo is printed and organized. I always seem to have random photos show up mid-year and it would drive me nuts if those weren't in the yearly album. Boo loves to keep me company while I put albums together because I talk about the photos as I go and tell stories:
After I did my How to Organize and Print YEARS worth of Photos tutorial I had numerous requests for a post on how I actually assemble my albums…..so I took photos as I finished 2010's album up this weekend. I always find that if you have YEARS worth of albums to make start with the most recent year you are ready to work on and move backwards. A few thoughts about album making before I start with the tips:
So, I'm not sure any of you remember…..but RIGHT before I was diagnosed with cancer last year I was about to embark on a big interior makeover of our house. I like to do most things by myself….I love the challenge of a project. It's been a little over a year now and I've decided it's time to start again. There are lots of projects going on here but the first big one was this week when they took away my TV cabinet to refinish it. I'll give you a hint of where I'm headed….I'm going from all beige and browns to all greys and whites….think Restoration Hardware.
Here's the before:
And here's the after: [Read more…]
Boo and I finished her Cinderella button collage this weekend! I made a time lapse process video filled with our tips and tricks and where to buy buttons:

Now we've got three…..I have a few others in mind right now for the next installment.

So I've been working super hard the past few days on a big Christmas tree reveal for the Michaels Holiday Dream Tree Challenge. I can't wait to show you some of the decor I made for it and the overall theme. Here's my inspiration board I made for my shopping trip to Michaels for supplies:

Game of Thrones Star Lena Headey Scores Big New Role!
Game of Thrones fans know Lena Headey as the scheming Cersei, but the veteran actor has a long list of roles on her resume and she's about to add another to the ever-growing list. Variety reports Lena has snagged a starring role in Jacqueline Ess, a horror flick produced and based on a story by Clive Barker, the writer whose stories served as inspiration for such horror classics as Hellraiser and Candyman. Jacqueline Es is about a woman — the titular Jacqueline, played by Lena — who learns to change other people's bodies at will. Creepy, much? The film will be directed by Jovanka Vuckovic, her feature-film debut. Production will start later this year, presumably during the Game of Thrones off-season. Clive Barker commented on the casting, saying "there is no better choice [than Lena] for the role of Jacqueline." He called the actress "a marvelous performer with an incredible presence" (damn right!) and said he's confident "her beauty and authority will carry the day." Congrats to Lena! It sounds like a cool project, and a nice change of pace from Game of Thrones. Will you be checking out Lena's new role? Sound off in the comments below! Source: Variety

Google Glass – The Next Great Gadget, or Another Hazardous Distraction?
Google Glass – it's a futuristic device, and, no doubt, an image that came to mind many years ago when people imagined what crazy implements the future would produce. A computer – that is worn – on your face, like glasses. An optical head mount display (or, OHMD) that allows you to basically do anything that you deem necessary in that exact moment in time. Convenient? Absolutely. Google Glass is designed to display everything that a smartphone already does, just in a useful hands-free format. One feature that is garnishing a lot of buzz is the on-command speaking function. Are you lost and need directions? Simply speak, and Google Glass can immediately find out where you need to be. Want to take a photo? Command Google Glass to do so, and boom – your photo is right in front of you.
