12 days of boot camp

OMG, I am so sorry for not getting my blog up here. I have not missed a beat on this and yesterday just killed me, well almost. Fore those who where not on the call, Friday I was in so much pain from my neck it was unbearable. I had a doctors appt. today so they could tell me something I already knew and although I am not one who likes to take any kind of pills, I told my doctor to give them to me. The look on their face was but in amusement and that almost got a chuckle out of me. They know I don`t like pills. I have turned them down so many times. You see I learned a while back that all these pills do is cover up the real problem that hides beneath. I want to fix that problem not cover it up, but today I had to or I wouldn`t be doing anything other then laying in bed in pain. As I was listening in on the boot camp call I was at the local supermarket getting my prescription filled. Once that was done I headed to the bealls department store next door hoping to make my announcement there. I listened to the call and talked a little myself and that was a good feeling to do that. I was hoping the magic pill would start to do it`s magic but it didn`t and I could not stand any longer. I didn`t want to give up and maybe that does not qualify as giving up, but it sure felt like it. I was miserable and even more so now. I went home, went to bed and didn`t get out of that bed till tonight. I got my five and I even went out today to get some more,well the convenient store across the street that's about as far as I made it. Boohoo right? wrong I don`t go down that easily! I will push this till I get it darn it! I have to! I want this so bad I can taste it. I want to be able to go back to all of my skeptics and say here look and now I am going to help you do the same thing because I said I could!

I want to say thank you all for the comments and support. It sure does help out a bunch:) I haven`t given up on my goal, I wont till it`s done so hopefully tomorrow is a better day and I can say Monday that I did it.

you go! I don't know if I mentioned this, but i have trigeminal nerve damage. probably spelled that wrong. the facial nerve. It is horrible. I had a car accident and hurt my neck. Well, long story short. 15 years of trying to deal with pain, 3 kids, job, and I was going to college. The doctors gave me everything in pill form that could. bla, bla, Alright, my point, see about nerve block. It is done in physical therapy. Came out about 12 years ago or so. It saved my life as it was. See where you can get it, and of course if if this is right for you. Pain Pills yuck! Made me crappy! no help! I can really understand what you are going through. And I know, that it is part of what Drives you even harder to succeed. Just want to say to all of you that I am really trying to not only keep up with you guys. I am looking in the fish bowl. I am trying to fly like a bird around the fish bowl, so I can soar down to the top of the fish bowl and snatch up all the wisdom and stories. Then spread my own little seeds. you know how birds spreads?( LOL! Talk about turning lemons into lemonade) Cause you know, I am following your lead. Hope you feel better. and all of you guys are just phenomenal!!!!

Richard, With your enthusiasm you will reach your goals. They say do what you have to do and you will be successful. I just know you have what it takes to get there, because you are certainly doing what you have to do.
