End of the rope

I shouldn't blog when I'm at the end of my rope. I am there now. Here goes ten random facts in no particular order:

1. A personal injury/product liability attorney will probably be flying at his own expense to Milwaukee to meet me. Yes. About that. 

2. Green was Katie's favorite color, and it matches her eyes. 

3.  I threw away nail polish today because the brush annoyed me. 

4. It doesn't take much to annoy me. 

5.  I ended a text message tonight with "It's not about you."  I meant it that way. 

6.  I'm ambivalent about a lot of things. 

7.  If you're reading this, you are not someone I'm ambivalent about. I need you guys. 

8.  I wish I could smack John Boehner on his Oompa-Loompa colored head. This government shutdown was ridiculous grandstanding. 

9. I've watched no sporting events since It happened. And I'm a die hard OU football fan. I just can't bear to watch anymore. 

10.  My skin is so sensitive that some days I'd rather not wear clothes. But then I realize that I love you guys too much to scare you, so I put them on.

  1. Shannon, that's as raw and honest as it gets. Plus, you made me chuckle... Oompa-Loompa colored head... tee hee! You will get through this. We will all help you as much as we can. Just remember... we all love you guys.

  2. I love you, even if you are an OU fan... and clothing is optional :) because I don't care what you wear to get you through the day!

  3. OU football will wait, sweetie. You just keep breathing. That's your only job right now.

  4. You don't need anyone's permission to rage against the machine and you don't owe anyone any explanations.

  5. Have no fear for givin' in Have no fear for givin' over
    You better know that in the end It's better to say too much
    Than to never to say what you need to say again

    Even if your hands are shakin' And your faith is broken
    Even as the eyes are closin' Do it with a heart wide open
    A wide heart

    Say what you need to say Say what you need to say
    Say what you need to say Say what you need to say

  6. Ugh! John Boehner! I can't even. But, as far as clothing: do what you need to do...you are in a judge-free zone here, sister!
