Stuck in the room, down on my knees I reach above my head to feel the cobwebs that are tickling my face. There is only inches of wiggle room. How did I get in here? The smell is musty and the dust is tickling my nose. It is so dark I can barely make out the outline of my own body. Wait there I see a tiny light in the distance. Shining through the crack and surrounding an outline of a very miniature door. I hear such a ruckus going on outside of wherever I am.
There is a very hot sticky mess going down the right side of my body. I feel as if I am in the army and crawling through one of there obstacle courses. Almost there I can just about reach the door just a couple more wiggles. How am I going to get any umph behind me to get this open. Sh** what was that? The sound is like a thousand animals being corralled into one fenced in yard stomping on a hundred people. Do I even want to get out of here? Is that pain, is that blood? Do it just push it you can't stay in here in this where ever I am. PUSH- yes it is opening. CRACK- ahhhhhhhh-Splat- stomp-jjsdlgjghkfhgkhsljfglkfhgkj.....no! Beep beep beep, I'm up, I'm up, what a messed up dream. No more sugary snacks before bed.

I am so glad that my English class has me reading a book. I used to have so much more time to read. I enjoyed reading a book now and then. Now I am lucky if I have time to eat, shower and sleep. So when a thing that I want to do becomes a part of my homework a thing I have to do I get to do something I want. Did that make sense?
The Heart and the Fist, maybe not my normal choice of reading material. It is a choice of something I would watch. So why wouldn't it be a choice for me to read. That is how my first interest in reading and my favorite type of movies began. Stephen King, he began it all my love for reading and movies, well, horror books and movies. So now I have begun reading this book and so far so good.
I enjoy watching many documentaries and love a heart felt and strong story. The description and the way he makes you feel you are there or can feel what or how he feels putting you in the action is the way all books or stories should be. It almost seems unreal how many opportunities he was given. Of course not many people would have taken any of those opportunities and even if they did they would need to give at least half the heart he did. So far this has been a good read. I am just about to get into the navy seals part so I am raring to go! Can't wait to read the following adventures and see what there is to learn.

Stress, yes we all have it. Do we all have to have it? Whether its a little or a lot I think we all do at some time at some point. wouldn't it be nice not to. I really really wish I did not have so much. worse than my own stress is having to deal with some one else stress. It is absolutely terrible when you yourself are trying to live a stress free life or as close to it as possible no lets not be ridiculous a little less stressful life, then you deal with others stress. Stress, its a killer. It does cause so many other problems and then what comes from all those problems , extra stress!!!!!! Its a viscous circle over and over and over. So , things that cause stress-

grammar-the set of structural rules governing the composition of clauses, phrases, and words in any given natural language. How about grammar English word and writing rules. Something that seemed so simple in grade school seems quite difficult now. Is this because the brain has gone weak after being away from school and studying for so long. Or is it the lack of time with so much more going on in a day. Or has the brain had so much stored in it and pushed aside that there is no room for the little things. Or does it all just simply need to be relearned put back in with all the other wonderful knowledge.
Here goes lets put some of those grammatical terms back into that stuffed old brain! The basics- adverbs, words that modify verbs. adjectives, words that modify nouns and pronouns. pronouns, words that substitute for nouns. Noun, people, place, things and ideas. Verbs, action word or group of words. Those are the basics, basically the only ones I still remember.
Here are some things in the glossary of grammatical terms that I really don't remember there for definitely need to study. Absolutes, words or phrases that modify whole sentences rather than parts of sentences or individual words. Ellipses, A series of 3 periods indicating that words have been omitted from material being quoted. Transitions, words in sentences that show relationships between sentences and paragraphs.
With just the small amount that I have read in this book I have come to a conclusion. The conclusion is I need to do a lot more reading and studying. Back to the books!

be well informed
I have learned lately that if you are not well informed so much can go wrong. Yes, this is not news breaking, earth shattering information. I have and most should know that you need to be well informed. I guess it depends on what is going on in your life on how much this comes into play. I always thought of myself as some one that paid attention to what needed to be known. Then this whole college thing happened and whoa is me there is so much more information that is needed to be known. Even when you think you have the information you need this is when you find out you don't know the half of it.
People that talk to you like you already know what they are telling you like everything is common sense. I think they forget what it is like when you first start or have never been in college. It is an issue even with people at work when they explain how a job works. Yes it is a simple as can be but if you have never seen or held, say a certain tool ever in your life than its not so simple to use this tool.
Go ahead shovel this side walk front to back, piece of cake, if you don't know what a shovel is not so easy.
That brings me to my if I only knew it would be simple, moment. Proctored exam, Sure I asked what it was, already feeling I should know. The test you take in front of someone or watched by, a proctor. I asked where you could do this since I would be in and out of the state. For this I was told I could take it at the school or anywhere that had a proctor or somehow with web cam. So this I thought was it, all the information I needed. Of course I was wrong and have all the hope in the world that I was not to late. So with all of this I already didn't know and questioned I am not sure why I was not informed of exactly how this worked, I know now I should have asked even more questions. Yes, to almost everyone this is probably almost common sense, but to me well I had no idea I had to set up a time and date. this could be do to me being out of school for about 20 years and this being my first on-line class. I saw this mentioned somewhere on blackboard for one of my classes. I thought there were proctors there (at the school) and I could just go up there anytime they were in. Boy was I wrong. So lesson learned and try to be well informed in the future. No, this is not the first or only instance that this lesson has been learned and it won't be the last I am sure. I will strive for all the information all the time, or as much as possible.

stay looking young
How many of you out there watch wheel of Fortune? I use to watch it all the time and as of lately I have been on a no television just Netflix kick. Tonight I happen to be watching the television for the news and what comes on following the news of course, Wheel of Fortune. first thought I have is oh my gosh Vanna White still looks young and good, how old is she. Google time, Vanna is 58 years old. The even bigger shocker was how old Pat Sajak is, 68.This gets me thinking is it the people or the money that keeps them young. Even more to that is wondering if they just make them look that young with make up and clothing and hair dues or do they spend so much on personal trainers and special diets. Are these things part of their contract, do these things get paid for by their job and is Vanna and Pat on contract where they have to be a certain weight and size?
How the little things can make my mind race. Then I jump from the game shows to the older actors that use to be well hotties. Some from my time and some from beyond. Let see where shall we begin, the Brat pack, Emilio Estevez-52, Rob Lowe-50, Andrew McCarthy-52,Anthony Michael hall-46,Judd nelson-55,Demi Moore-52,Ally Sheedy-52,Molly Ringwald-47. Then of course there is the outsiders two above already mentioned but here is some more, Patrick Swayze sadly passed away, Matt Dillon-51 Ralph Macchio-53, Tom Cruise-52 and so many more. Most of them do not look their age lets not forget John Stamos,50 the unbelievable Johnny Depp,50 and of course Brad Pitt,50. Before I get totally off subject which I think I may have a bit. Do these people stay looking good because they have the money to do so or were they or are they natural beauties? Some even got better with age like Halle Berry, Mark Wahlberg(well that is debatable) and Nicole Kidman. There was so many in there 60's 70's and some in there 80's that are still looking amazing for their age maybe it is all about attitude. What ever it is, it is amazing and a little bit unbelievable,

petspetspets/upperflat
I am definitely a pet person and have had more then my share, whether chosen, chosen by or given or saved. This time I will talk about the beginning of my adult life and pets , in the first place i lived, yes there has been that many. I think my first animals in my upper flat were fish and I can definitely remember one in particular a Jack Dempsey he was around for a good portion of time he loved to eat other fish he was pretty aggressive. He was a character that is for sure, there are not many fish I would actually consider a pet a pet I would call a family member. Jack he was he would play with you through the glass and play fight with food constantly changed things in his cage if he didn't like it. I did have him for several years until he eventually died from ich. I tried to have a cat even though I was allergic this cat found, at the time us, still a kitten living outside. This kitten was so fuzzy and fluffy, we named him Leo, he looked like a little lion. I lived through the allergies the best I could but then we came to a new fault any time the water bed edge was uncovered he would spray, and once the spray began it didn't stop. This is the first animal I ever had to get rid of, he did get to go somewhere he could go in and outside which he loved but I hated it.
Then there was my a little bit odder choice of animals but good choice for a small upper flat. The first would be my Caiman crocodile he was fun and interesting to learn from. He liked eating goldfish and was supposed to eat mice also but when I got him one instead of eating him he became his friend he even slept on his back it was quite humorous. Then there was Alcatraz I got him when he was a baby about a couple centimeters around and a foot or so long. He earned his name as he loved to escape and found new and wondrous ways to do so. In case you haven't figured it out yet he was a snake a Burmese Python to be exact. I enjoyed his company, hugs and playfulness. He went from eating pinkies to mice then up to rats. I hated feeding him rats because he only ate live and they would tear him up sometimes. He grew to be approximately 10-12 inch width and 6 ft length. Sadly he ended up eating a sick mouse and became bloated and passed away. There were one or two others that I wouldn't even consider pets either because they didn't stay or I didn't have attachment to or we just took care of and then sent on. Like the Rattlesnake my (ex) husband brought home from a work trip that scared the hell out of me every time it rattled, that did not even last a week. The squirrels we nursed back to health that only one survived and we sent it back out to the world. There was also a pigeon that had a broken wing, that was one that I didn't think would work but it actually did and we got it healed and to somewhat fly before letting it go. I swear that guy hung around, we would always see it on the other side of our yard near the tracks. The family member I will never forget that I will end this to begin again as I move to my first house would be Tosha, Boxer/Pit Bull, four in half week old adorable little brindle pup! Oh how we all loved her!
