Do you all know people like that? The ones who come into the office on a perfectly fine day and find some little thing to go completely berserk over? And they do it every day? Like they can't bear for things to be peaceful or happy.....they must feel tension or stress and get worked up or the day just isn't complete. :lol:
Another study that I read involves people like this - always deep in drama and anxiety. The study was trying to find out if those people are actually addicted to the hormones, like adrenaline, that the body produces when under stress. The idea was that they actually manufacture their OWN stress just to get their adrenaline fix. ?? Hum. :/

Shareneh, I understand completely!!! I can honestly say that every church I've ever attended has been a disappointment when it comes to true Christianity and fellowship. I go anyway because the Bible tells me to, but I don't feel loved or nourished by those people

Yeah, I know, I tried that for a while but I never quite felt the same anymore. I know I should go to church and I think I will again some day. It's like being left by a man. I am so worried that preachers and churches are all the same that I'm scared to give my earthly heart to the cause. I do witness to people and they come to me for advise. God will show me the way some day.

My daughter just had her first baby and has found a nice church with people who love her and care about her. I am just leary right now. She said she has to raise him in church so that he turns out right. :) At least I didn't waste time spending all those years in service.

I know and work with people like that too!! Sometimes it makes me crazy to listen to it. I sit in an office where I can't leave my desk but people come in all the time to "visit". I love these people like family but they can be some negative people. A couple are what I call self sabatagers. They will have everything going for them and ruin it. Then they have the nerve to complain. :he

As for me it's easier to stay positive for the most part. I can be very hard on myself at times though.

Today was beautiful!!! The boys went to church without me(I'm still a little too stove up to sit for long on a pew) and stayed over to have lunch with friends.

I had a long talk with my mother on the phone, decided to clean house and then decided it was too pretty out and I needed the Vit. D production.....so I went outside to commune with God and my animals.

The chickens were hilarious! They all came up to me to check me out as I sat in the grass....and then proceeded to lie down and do the wing stretch position. This never ceases to make me laugh! All the birds piled up on one another, lying on their sides with eyes closed contentedly, with that one wing spread along the ground. Like solar panels for chickens! :lol:

I bet the neighbors almost wrecked as they drove by.....this woman with her bare feet and shirt sleeves lying in the yard surrounded by chickens and dogs.....all appearing dead!

I gathered eggs, spread some nice green hay for a new layer of bedding and nest box refurbishment. Filled water buckets and containers, dreamed about this year's garden and made plans in my mind....but mostly? I just sat in the swing, basking in the sun and the miracle of life on this beautiful earth!

The boys put on full body armor and went to play air soft battles in the woods....came back thoroughly happy and pink-cheeked!

My neighbor stopped by with a small bag of potatoes~big ones this time~she must have heard me talking about her! :hide I gave her a dozen of my largest eggs and thanked her muchly!

It is a beautiful night, with every star in the sky shining out a message to my soul>>>take a deep breath and thank God for every little thing...the good and the bad, for without the bad we would never know just how good the good really is! :love

ETA: As I was walking around the yard barefooted, I got stung by a honeybee!!! Such irony! :rolleyes:

Its been a good day! :thumbsup

BAREFEET??? LYING ON THE GRASS????? I would have to use a pickaxe to lay on the grass, and then the neighbors would definitely call 911 thinking I'd slipped on the ice and died!

I am sooooo jealous!

Glad you are having a good day, though!

Bee so glad you are feeling good. Is that rental car ok or is it barking?

Our weather was nice enough Saturday to lay in the grass except for one thing. All my grass is brown and wet. I "almost" wish our ground was frozen. (Note I said "almost". It is so saturated with water that you sink to your ankles just walking across the yard. If I tried laying down I would probably just sink and disappear.

I hope your car does well. You be careful out there.

Sunday, we saw a honeybee, too. Slim pickens for him, I'll bet.

How's the stoved up bones feeling?
