How Long?

How long do I lay here?
When is it ok to stand?
Could someone please show me the rules?
I don't know them
I only know I can't take one more moment in this place

How long do I cry here?
When is it ok to smile again?
Could someone please show me the rules?
I don't now them
I only know the salty tears have burned lines in my skin.

    It's OK to stop now. The old rules no longer apply. You have my permission to move on and follow new rules that say it's OK for you to be happy. You deserve to be happy.

    Rule 1: Do unto yourself as you do unto others.

    Hugs and prayers,
    Mary in TX

Mud You, You see me with mud covered glasses, feel me with shaky hands, love me with missing pieces, and reach for me with broken arms. But I, I will wash away the dirt of yesterday, so you can see the sun. I will hold your hands steady, until you find rest. I will make new pieces, to fill in all that's been stolen. And I, I will step close enough, so you don't have to reach.

What I learned today 01-22-2010

You go can from noticing that your guinea pig is pregnant, to having three guinea pig babies, in less than 12 hours. My mother's fire trauma kitty has no clue what a litter box is, or at least is pretending that. She is also pregnant. Tyler Perry's Movie, I can do bad all by myself, is AWESOME. The song "I can do bad all by myself" by Mary J, is my theme song. I am not the cat piss sniffer outter I thought I was. I CAN'T FIND IT!!!! AHHHHH IT'S MAKING ME NUTS Jaylin does not love me, she loves my noodles. Spending hours making chicken stock from your friend Talia's recipe , and then getting too overwhelmed with life to put it in the fridge, equals something else to throw in the yard. Boo! As every other recipe of hers I've made, I'm sure it was delicious. Livy outsmarted me by hiding her stolen container of icing in the cat food bag. EWWWW. cat food and chocolate icing. again I say...ewww.... and yea in her hurry she l

Will trade love for chicken legs

This summer I became the mother of a beautiful 16 yr old harlequin Macaw, Harley. Within a week, my arms looked like I'd had a cutting relapse, and I had a baseball sized bruise with a hole in the center, courtesy of my new feathered friend. Hmmm... Tenacious as I am, I don't like being around anything that makes me flinch when it moves. I'm a glutton for punishment I guess, because rather than return demon bird, I decided to keep trying. I went another route this time though. Instead of expecting Harley to understand that I am a good mama, I showed him I was. I took my time. Ahhhhh it was a chicken leg that changed things. Disgusting I know! Demon possessed cannibal bird loves nothing more than crunching up a chicken leg. Ewww.... He did not like me, preferred to bite me than be near me, but ohhhhhh mama had chicken, so he came a little closer. Over the next few weeks I came to him over and over again with treats, pistachios, peanuts, strawberries, bananas...an
