I just finished reading this book:



And people wanted to know what I thought.

Well - it was an interesting read - once I got past the first two chapters where she talks about reencarnation and how she has flashbacks of her previous lives. I'm not sure how much I believe in that, so that part was a bit hard to get through. But as soon as it turned to her theater life, education, first jobs and all the people she's met and what she chose to share about her personal life, then the book became really good.

She's been through a lot, but has always kept it going despite.

I recommend this book for any fan of Stephanie's :-)

To my new and wonderful friend ddagent 

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

Six days in total - I love it - I've been hanging here, watching TV, cleaning, fixing stuff I've been putting off.
The fridge is clean and has light again...the bulb broke idk, 5 years ago and I just never replaced it - it got replaced today :-)

I've bought lots of new stuff for the apartment, because I got inspired to do something new - it's not huge changes, just adding touches here and there, and I love the changes.

My mother is still not feeling well - the antibiotics are kicking her ass - but the finger looks much better - I'm getting the hang of changing the bandage here over the holiday as the doctor's office is closed. It's kinda gross, but nothing I can't handle :-) I just hope she'll be able to eat something again soon, she really doesn't have the pounds to lose...

I was reading the anonymeme last night and I can see people still haven't gotten whatever is bothering them out of their system...I really don't get where all that resentment towards other people come from. But those girls on my flist that got hurt in this round of wank - BIG SNUGGLY HUGS!!! And this message goes to everyone :-)



I wish those people that left LJ for a break would come back and show those nasty wankers that they don't control what fun you have - you have so much more support than you have people against you - please come back - I MISS YOU!

Hey girls

Christina and I are talking hotels....There's this cheap one here: http://www.laterooms.com/en/hotel-reservations/97066_city-centre-rooms-milton-keynes.aspx
only drawback is there's shared bathrooms...but if we are 10 girls in the same house, it means we'll be sharing with each other and not strangers :-)
Does this sound like anything people wanna be a part of??

it's 45 pounds for a room that sleeps three....

And who on my flist is actually going???

Firstly - thank you to all of you for your wondeful comments the other day when things sucked...and a special thanks to the anonymous giver for the virtual hug :-)
Do you have any idea how much better YOU can make me feel compared to many people in my so called 'real life'?? I love you people, pure and simple :-)

Now on to the last two days...Tuesday started witha dentist appointment; nothing terrible happened there, but I was scared shitless either way :-) - hen I went hoem a called my mom - she had been to see the doctor with her finger which in bad shape. So bad shape that the doctor had told her to go straigh to the hosptal and be admitted.....so that's what she was going to do. Said she'd call me when she knew anything new.

So I went on with my day and nothing happend - by 3.30 pm I was going crazy and called the hospital to hear where she was - she was still waiting to be admitted - and this was 5 hours later....She was ready for me to come help her :-) So I went and we waited a little more and finally a doctor came and said she had to spend at least one night at the hospital. She got a bed at orthopeadic and she was not happy - she was nervous and shaking and I convinced the nurse to give her something for it - good plan - that mellowed her right out :-)
But I didn't like leaving her there - my mother has never really been at the hospital before.....

Meanwhile my father had a stroke some 5 years ago and can't really take care of himself - so I had to make sure he got dinner and that my mother had everything at the hospital she needed - so that was a lot of back and forth - by the time I got home it was 10 pm and I just went staright to bed....because I knew I had to do it all again today.....

Started the day making sure my father's fridge was stocked for several days, because the night nurse had told us that if mother was getting IV anitibiotics she could possibly stay a week at the hospital - my father was very pale when I told him that....But I made him lunch, cleaned the kitchen and put up the laundry before going back to the hospital, where the doctor STILL hadn't been by to tell us what was going to happen.

Finally ten minutes before I had to leave he came by and said that they wanted to make a small cut and drain all that nasty infection out and wash it in saline - and then put her on antibiotics....in pill form, yay! That way she could hopefully go home today. And as luck would have it she was back home by 2 pm :-)

So now dad was happy, mom was happy, but sore, and I was happy - and they have plenty of food!

I felt the minute the adrenaline left my boy when I got out of the car at work and I have been tired ever since - probably lack of food. Because al though I take care of both my parents and run around shopping for them, I forget myself and I had no food yesterday and very little today.....

As a result my stomach's all tumbly now, and I'm dead tired - so even though it's only about 8.30 I'm gonna go to bed and hopefully have a normal day tomorrow :-)

*hugs the flist*

...kinda sucks....
I feel sad and alone and out of touch with my friends.
I was trying to talk to one of my friends on the phone about how I felt and she seems to think I'm stuck in the past with how things used to be...I don't know if she's right or not - I just really feel out of it.

I wish some of the new friends I've made over the last year were closer, so I could just call them up on a Saturday night to come over...

I guess chat is the closest thing.....so if any of you wanna add me to MSN for an occasional chat or something you can - I'd love to have more friends to chat with. leetah47@hotmail.com

sorry for being emo......

To sunset_leaf 
May you have an awesome day, sweetie :-)

I'm going!!!
christina1709  and I ordered the plane tickets last night :-)

So who else here is going??

Julie Andrews tickets are ordered too, along with plane tickets, which WORK is paying for because I have a conference for three days before the concert - how awesome is that??

Who is coming for that???

Okay, in 11 hours the plane leaves for Miami via France. We have had 6 weeks of cold and snow now, and I'm ready for some warmth right about now - I just hate the long trip to get to it...But Caribbean cruise, here I come, baby!!!

Now all you lovely Spain girls - you have an absolutely fabulous trip and please, please don't hold back on the pictures and the stories when you get back. That will be my comfort for not being able to go - I do hope the organizers will videotape the panels.....

And now, even though it's only 8 pm, I'm gonna try and go to bed :-)

SEE YOU ALL SOON!!!!

In memory of family and friends who have lost the battle with cancer; and in support of the ones who continue to conquer it! Post this on your LJ if you know someone who has or had cancer. 93% won't copy and paste this. Will you?

Posting for two uncles that survived, an aunt who didn't, and a good friend who just got diagnosed before christmas - she's in treatment now and we're hopeful...

I received my Mary SFBall DVD some days ago, popped it straight into my computer and watched the first panel. I love reliving those moments, it was fabulous and I clearly don’t remember half of the questions that were asked when we saw it live :-) And let me just say this to the haters that believe that just because it’s her job, she can’t have fun – boo on you. You cannot fake the fun she was having on stage that weekend; she enjoys her job!
But….when I pop the DVD in my DVD player, it doesn’t work, and the one in the bedroom insists on reading it as a data disc, but I can watch it there, so it’s good.
And I almost hate to say it, but…..it’s too bad they edited it so much….it would have been a lot better to just put the whole two panels on the disc with no editing, so we could see and hear all those little things she did between questions, like the little dance someone made a gif of recently – that was edited out…But I still love having what we got on film :-)

I must admit to having been sucked thoroughly into Celebrity Big Brother UK, all because of Stephanie Beacham. I never imagined I’d see one of my favourite actresses in a Big Brother house – but it’s actually quite funny. And she’s such a sweetheart. All the other people in the house are from 21 to 45 and she’s 62. But she’s handling all the tasks and such as well as the young folks :-)
Because of that, I’ve revived my interest in Stephanie again and have been watching Dynasty clips on Youtube :-)
I feel like reading SeaQuest fanfic, too, but maybe I should read some of those 800 something fics in my unread archive instead :-)

In between watching Big Brother I’m still watching Stargate Atlantis. It’s still good, but SG-1 was better. 32 episodes to go.

Short update: The snow has stopped but it’s veeery cold, work is busy, and I have pulled a muscle next to my shoulder blade…..
