I'm Baaaack:)

First I was happy and feeling better and not in the mood to rant and rave. Then I got sick and was too weak to bother. These days I am still sick but I am also getting crankier and crankier. The out and out lies spread around the internet between fake history and politics coupled with the blatant stupidity of people is really jacking my jaw.

Since I have been too sick to attend church for a while my fair weather friends there have abandoned me. I still can't drive GRRRRRRRR!!!! WebMD assured me my ripped Achilles tendon would heal in one to two years. Here it is over two years later and half my leg is still numb and I still lose my balance if I am not holding on to something. Yep I fall and I can get up but I scream while I am doing it because my knees are in so much pain I nearly pass out.

I hire a cab once a month to take me to town for groceries and misc errands otherwise it is just me and the fuzzy butts out here in the boondocks. Soooooo, I need someone to talk to. Maybe no one is out there anymore but I had quite a few followers so maybe somebody will read my ramblings and grumps. If not, oh well, at least I got a chance to vent LOL.

Hugs,
Linda B in TN:)

PS This sets off a mini rant in me - usually emails and blogs are not all that personal and they are definitely informal. I am fine with the cliche net closing of "hugs" for the hundreds I share with friends and people I barely know each week. It is a genial way of saying everything above is meant in the nicest way. There are various simple endings that various people use, sure they may be bland and informal but that is all that is needed on most emails.

I do put "Hugs and love" or "love 'ya" on private emails to people I am very close with - long time correspondents, family and people I actually have a close person to person relationship with.

What burns my biscuits is seeing emails from women in their 50's closed with "huggles" or "huggie boo" or some other lame and simple minded made up baby talk type closing. We are grown ups on all the lists I am on. I really don't see the need for cutie pie made up kid talk. Grow Up!!!!!!!
