I tease...I don't drink that much. Mostly cause I forget that I have some in the frig. or a new bottle in the cabinet. <BR/><BR/>Jen-LOL on the snake. That really got to you, didn't it?<BR/><BR/>Afro-I was joking about the beads (I really was organizing but not because of anxiety but because it needed to be done), but when I read your comment, it really hit home. I didn't even realize it until you said it but it does calm me down because it does give me a sense of control over something. Since I can't control the weather (boy, that would be a cool super power), I gotta find something I CAN control. Hmmm...something to think about. <BR/><BR/>Yeah, I think you are about an hour away. I'll let you know!<BR/><BR/>Thanks! <BR/><BR/>Rhea-LOL! I've never been on any kind of drugs (legal or illegal) so I don't have a stash of anything harder than Tylenol! I had to have pain pills one time after my c-section and some valium for oral surgery. Both times, I still had over half the bottle left over and I just gave 'em to my neighbor...is that wrong? LOL! <BR/><BR/>I'll let you guys know what I'm up to with the beads sometime today or tomorrow. <BR/><BR/>Lindsay-You'll be the first one I'll call if I need help!

Just keep organizing... it always helps me feel "in control" of my anxiety moments.<BR/><BR/>Also, let me throw in that I am less than an hour away from you if I remember correctly and even when Katrina made landfall, all was relatively calm here despite some rain and wind. Nothing in comparison to what our friends on the coast took.<BR/><BR/>I'll be thinking about you and let me know on that hurricane thing. Seriously.

I don't know), but I WOULD cut yourself quite a bit of slack for getting anxious about hurricanes. <BR/><BR/>You can always road trip to central Texas if you need to go anywhere - my sister loves having me as an evacuation route should she need to leave Houston...which she periodically does.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8710842288933813336.post-77464267125181350692008-07-07T19:20:00.000-05:002008-07-07T19:20:00.000-05:00Jared-zin is zinfandel (in this case, white)Sheila...Jared-zin is zinfandel (in this case, white)<BR/><BR/>Sheila-I used to live in New Orleans, now I'm in Northern MS.<BR/><BR/>IM-see above!Mama Dawghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16056327117924455147noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8710842288933813336.post-56304736302574622172008-07-07T18:28:00.000-05:002008-07-07T18:28:00.000-05:00It's called anxiety, get some ativan from your DR....It's called anxiety, get some ativan from your DR.
