Earthquake Thread ~ Always Updated

Well, you're not the first to suggest the meds having to do with this lately. I suppose it could very well be. I haven't slept right since I started them a month ago. That lack of sleep will make anyone cranky. But it's definitely something on top of that. I've never felt this empty.

A little less than a month left of the meds.

I can do this. I can do this.

Ugh!!! I hope I can do this!

Sweet dreams. Thank you WA.

That's here....Boston. Thunderstorms haven't started yet. Still waiting for them.

I believe it!

For those of you, like me, who do not have a chance of seeing the lunar eclipse, you can watch it live here.



A live Ustream view of the lunar eclipse will be available here on April 4 starting at 6:00 a.m. EDT: [link to www.ustream.tv]

Wow, birds are chirping LOUD here! It's 3:49am. Maybe they're just happy it's 45 degrees currently...

Regarding that filament that was being discussed earlier...

Okay, check this out. Kinda creepy. I recorded these birds making all this noise. At about 40 seconds in you can start to hear a low rumbling. It gets louder to the point where it sounds like a car is driving by. No car drove by. That same sound happened again. Again, no car drove by. I couldn't hear these sounds until I used earphones and put the video on 720HD. If you can, do it and let me know what you hear!



P.S. the fog is getting really thick!!!

I have had two birds chirping very loud every night for two weeks now. Happy little suckers are driving me nuts! One on each side of my back yard talking back and forth to each other and my bedroom window is right between them. They start around 10p and go on and on for about 6 hours! Why are the birds chirping all night!?!? Even stranger you have it going on by you now.
I was hoping to stay up for the blood moon but I am starting to get a migraine. I'll be back on tomorrow so if anyone has thoughts on the birds please reply.

That is creepy. I don't hear the sound until around 1:00 and then it's a relatively steady noise throughout. It doesn't seem to lessen or go away like a car is driving by or like it stopped at all.

(Caution wall of text incoming)

I have been thinking about you. There are situational reasons you could have lodged into a funk. IMO - maybe because I finally ran the fuck away from endless winter 6 years ago and have not wanted to look back - I think winter is part of what has you in this vice. Hard in the vice grip of discontent. Your area has had record breaking snowfall, horrible winter that STILL has not ended. All roller coaster barometric pressure, well in this thread I think we can all agree you just cant blow that off. So we have this physical beast of winter and you have had a particularly hard battle this year.

Next we have your daughter entering a new stage of development for her body physically as well as her brain. I really don't think young adults fly right until they get to be around 24. They just don't tick the same way until all that hormonal and brain change calms down again. So strategies that might have worked in the past go straight out the window and it gets to being a ride with a lot of turbulence.

Now parenting we all have our methods. I just want to share a discovery I made in the Military. When I was in, they used to give me all the "problem" troops. So I would end up with 5-6 very young Airmen assigned to me as sort of a "rehabilitive" step. What I saw in them usually was smart young people who were done with authority and because of their own emotions sort of seemed to come to me with an air of rebellion. They almost always came to me from bosses who were bossy/pushy/all black and white. In all cases these youngsters could be turned around if you spent the time educating them about the why of the process, for some human beings "because I told you so" doesn't work.

So I would open myself to them as a human being and teach them the whys. I found if they felt like I understood them suddenly they would literally blossom into people that wanted to make me happy. They wanted me to be proud of them. They wanted to earn my respect and because I had taken the time to "learn" about them and figure out for each separate one of them what their particular carrot of motivation was they were loyal enough to me the turn around was noticed around the base. They were referred to as "my baby ducks" because they sure enough would fall in line.

Why I go on about all this is I see many parents, trained and programed by culture and their upbringing to be in one mode only with these growing human beings, and that mode is "I AM THE AUTHORITY" - (well for goodness sakes of course you are, but you see you can do that without projecting such a firm line in the sand) I never lost positional authority over those young troops, I was never "their friend" - I was an adult who tried to understand where they were coming from, get inside that and find their motivation, and reward them with praise when the showed any types of growth/improvement or mastery over their environments. Maybe its all high manipulation and I was fortunate enough not to get a serious turd, I don't know but it worked.

Kids want to see us as "some other" and society really molds with so much age segregation. Most adults think they can't even conversate with teens and so they just stand with other adults and say oh yea, going through THAT stage.
But inside that teen ager is a human being that is scared, knows they are pulling a bluff on you, needs you more than ever, thinks you don't care and don't understand. Somehow its our job to get past all that and the raging storms of hormones.

Most teens also have to navigate the most bullshit peer time in their lives while this disenchantment with mommy and daddy is also going on. Can you imagine how terrifying it is for them, small boats tossed by such a huge Sea which is what life is.

So she is rude and mouthy? I think what that means is "I am scared shitless" but the disconnect is she is also not a little girl anymore. She is a terrified PERSON - even if you see the child. She is trying to navigate situations she doesn't have the tools for. And lashing out like any cornered animal. That I think is where your daughter is Simple but that is just a guess. You know her, and I am only generalizing based on what I have seen, felt, and remember.

I share a lot of stories with my son about the times I had to navigate difficult, painful, funny, embarrassing times in my own life - and yes I still have to crack the whip but its administered so rarely he knows I am bloody serious when it happens and he also knows he went over the line.

You will never win with any other human being if what is being engaged in is a power struggle. I think you have to distract teenagers and young adults and manipulate them without their knowing just like distracting toddlers. Is exhausting staying ahead of these people we created. BUT that is what you have to do, you can just never sit down with them - this is an EVEN BIGGER CHALLENGE IF YOU ARE ALONE, TIRED, FIGHTING CHRONIC ILLNESS, GOING THROUGH SHIT AT WORK, FIGURING OUT HOW TO PAY FOR AN UNEXPECTED LARGE BILL, GOT BAD NEWS ABOUT SOMETHING, or have your own freaking issues/disappointments/frustration/and hormonal fluctuations going on. Life aint smooth. Its a bumpy road or choppy waters.

I hope I have not insulted anybody here with my opinions. But just think about it, everyone of us on this site has some issues with authority/government etc. Admit it something around an issue you felt "different" about brought you here - our children are no different. They too don't know what the hell is going on, can you imagine how terrifying that is if the grownups they depend are hard to talk to?

Finally Simple the other thing I want you to do is really consider the side effects on your mood that the treatment you are going through might have. That slipped by me a few times on my illness journey - for example I have had meds make me so overly sensitive to sound I have turned into an angry animal from hell snapping at every one inside my head, like why do you ladies have to be so loud up in here. Let alone the jabbering, laughing nonsense coming out of my kid like non-fucking-stop can you shut up???? Ok, have a laugh at that but meds, even ones that might help in some ways can cause surprises in others and of course when we are tired/down etc we are forgetting there might be this whole other influence in that respect.

I want you to take care Simple. You have not burdened anyone here - it seems we all have found a safe place in this group, almost daily one of us makes a confession in here and blares out their heart moments - that said, and maybe its just that I am intuitive, it is clear you need respite, you truly need respite and rest. Perhaps a very slow visit to the Boston Museum of Art alone, all that white, tall open space, all those Art works, all that antiquity, go see those samurai swords and get your inner warrior on, go look at all those Egyptian treasures - or a long day at the cosmetic counters smelling and touching things, all that light, all those pretty colors and scents, or go get lost for hours in the very best corner of a book store, or have high tea in that fancy place down by the Garden. Something different, out of the rut, pampering, its time to fill your tanks back up Simple. Reset. What ever your method is. The journey into a whole new stage of life with your daughter is beginning and you are going to need gas in the tank, good tires, gps, humor, and chocolate bars I think. (have you ever been over to the Harvard Museum of Natural History and seen their glass flower display? It was created for Botany students in the last century I think - all those flowers translucent in that room full of light, light tables, talk about shock the brain out of winter!!! Magnificent!!) Then go eat a burger in that place across the street from the yard. You have to know that crazy place on Mass Avenue. ***good thing I know the area, :-)

I am sending you Love and healing energy today.
I think the first mission agenda is RESTORE -
not tackle, deal with or solve right now -
RESTORE YOU, restock your reserves.

OK, I just got to this and I am glad it was brought up because I too think this is a part of the picture.

Male mockingbirds will sing their brains out 24/7 till they find a mate - and tis the season of Love. Birdies wanting nookey. :-)

Simple here is an example with my son. He is a BIG kid, taller than I am already - not quite puberty but any freaking minute its going to blast off.

He is getting pimples now. I kept telling him you have to wash your face. And I bought him some products, I assumed he would just used them. Finally he says to me, well how do you wash your face I mean I know how in the shower but it doesn't seem to be working.

I was floored I mean I just assumed he knew how to wash his freaking face, but you know what - it dawned on me he didn't really. So I bought out the cotton balls, the sea breeze the zit cream, and now they even have like baby wipes for the face. So we troop into the bathroom and I show him how to take care of his skin. I got him one of those little baskets to sit on the counter full of what he needs. Its things like this over and over -
"where is the road map mom?" -

(GOD HELP ME WHEN HE NEEDS TO SHAVE HIS FACE)bwhahaha
At least you do have a girl, there are different challenges with raising a male child. I try and be aware, but I still miss things - its inevitable. ;-)

These places Simple - go GO go!

Amazing how simple it seems and then out of the blue it dawns on you, they really don't know anything. They can seem so smart, so grown up and so independent and yet they are still just kids. I like the way you put that Cathy. It fits so well.

Good luck with the shaving lesson. I never got one and was scared to death of disposable razors. Finally had a girlfriend show me it was no big deal and how to do it when I was 19. Very embarrassing.

You know what makes people stupid? Well Americans that is, Being too extremely hardcore Republican or Democrat. You know, to the point people are in hard denial about truths. Denial is a river in Africa.

This is old. But worth the look when you have time. It's not one of my useless threads either.
Thread: Video I Recorded Of Weird Fading In And Out Humming Sound Tacoma, Wa (Updated With Another New Video Tonight)

Some people can't cope with Freedom Deano, and I mean the Freedom to think for themselves - it feels too chaotic for them, maybe they are afraid they will fly out of earths orbit if they don't have all the constructs of the mind.

That is what all of it is - constructs.
Some will pull at the threads of certain parts of their programmed belief system - but few will really stand back far enough to ask the big questions.

Its lonely to live in truth, you get banished for truth - people need belonging so they seek groupage/affilation/denomination.

So Deano where is everybody? Sleeping it off???
Sshhh look how quiet it is in here.
We could like raid the fridge or something.

Probs getting stuff ready for Easter Parties. It takes time to bake pink cup cakes and make 3 dozen deviled eggs.

Ah, I see.

Good Morning Everyone

Thank you Little Bird, that makes sense. It must just be the first time they have ever built nests in my yard. Also, I just want to add that I really enjoyed your 'wall of text'.

Morning Capt.

I admit I cheated this year and booked a Sunday Brunch for everyone. But it feels absolutely great not to have to be running around or baking today.

Weekend Brunches with friends and family are awesome. It's the best reason to be drunk by noon and no one cares. Also the only time a man can have Mimosas and not be made fun of. Bonus if there is an order at will omelet table.
