about ladyblue-the phoenix

Civility is something that everyone seems to want but not bad enough to give it a try. Some people seem to think civility is boring and therefore drama seems to be more entertaining.  It is no wonder all the drama reality shows are such a big hit in America....

My education isn't on top of the world but my common sense helps out a lot, and my sense of humor carries me the rest of the way. "

 "There is a thing about education and education is good but too much education and not enough experience is just as harmful because then we end up with educated fools." all self quoted by ladyblue.........

I have gone through life as some would say a basketball bouncing along with the bumps in life's road. Society has been changing and evolving while earth's life has been changing so whose to say how far it will go or how many years there are left before evolution changes again? I think I have adapted fairly well in my years. I have accepted and embraced many a change that has been shared in our society but the one belief that does not waver is the personal faith I carry inside me. It is mine and mine alone and it is what has pulled me up out that rut I fell in along the way.

I also wish to add that I do my best to speak civil on golo but if I have offended anyone it may not of been intentional, so let me know and we will see if it can be better understood. letting things fester does not free oneself from the poison.

Hey,hope you are having a good day,it is beautiful out side and hope to get out side in a bit when done with my house cleaning.Wishing you a great weekend.

Hi LB: I know what you mean about being away. Generally if it gets too volitile, I just stay away. Have missed seeing you on GOLO for a while. Glad you are back. Have a wonderful weekend!

Good Morning,hope you had a nice weekend and wishing you a blessed day.

"What do you think is the problem with the 'tea party movement' as you call it."

Spreading hateful lies like Obama's a Muslim, Obama's not American, Obama's a socialist, Obama's a communist, Obama's a Nazi, Obama hates America, Obama's a terrorist. It's so ridiculous that sometimes I wonder if they're secretly trying to ensure his re-election.

"Now I say if the nation wants a NATIONALIZED Healthcare system then it needs to include everyone and that to me includes our senators. I see nothing wrong with the president only having elite insurance. Other than that then trying to promise equal healthcare is a bunch of baoney."

They're not trying to give us nationalized healthcare, or even equal healthcare. What they're trying to give us is a choice between free, low-quality government-funded healthcare (better than nothing) and paying more for better, private healthcare. You pay more, you get more. That's how capitalism works.

"If they don't think a certain drug the doctor prescribed is what they want you to take under the prescription plan D they do not pay for it. They make you take the drug Medicare officials want you to take first to see how it may work for you. Only after you exhaust all their recommendations and you aren't getting any better do they then approve the drug the doctor wanted you on to start with. Tell me what you call that if it's not a panel of bureaucrats determining what drugs you'll take."

Substitute "Medicare" with "Insurance Company" and you have the exact scenario as we currently have! My insurance, while pretty darn good, does this exact same thing right now, the only difference is that the insurance companies deny medicine/procedures based on reimbursement rates. Basically meaning that my level of health care is determined by how much an insurance company can make off of me being sick.

Dart Game! Click the button and move it forward, just like your throwing a dart and the let go of the button. Before it reachs the top of the board.

Hey,hope all is going well with you.Stopping by to wish you a nice weekend.

That is the coolest profile pic ever.

hi there sweetness, I hope you are doing good. ((((((HUGS)))))

Hey,hope your sore throat is better today and that you will feel well enough to get out in this sun shine we are seeing today that we have not seen in a few days.Take care of your self.((((((Hugs)))))

Hi Buddy, I hope you are doing well!! I haven't been getting on alot lately, but one of these days I will be laid off and will get on more. I am still hoping to get down there, but it looks like it would be in January or maybe even Feburary. Dang work...it sure gets in the way of having fun!! I am very grateful to have the good job that I do, and that I love so much. Hey, LadyBlue, the Arctic Cam is still on, but some of those buildings are gone!! They tore them down to build a darn bridge over the Chena River. I am not for it, but heck, they don't even as me anymore..LOL!! Again, my Friend, I hope you are doing well and feeling good. Take care of yourself and see ya soon. Oh, if you go on arcticcam, look in the right hand upper corner...see "other webcams". If you go on there, and look at Rust Flying Service, or Talkeetna Air that is a view of Denali from the south side. It is a beautiful view!!

Hey LadyBlue...check out the ArcticCam, you can see a bunch of lights across the river that used to not be able to be seen because of the Samson hardware building...LOL...I never even realized it until tonight when I looked on the Webcam. Pretty soon the Big I bar is going to be the only building in that parking lot across from the Newsminer. I hope you are having a great weekend!!!

Hey my friend, just go on the newsminer site.

http://newsminer.com/

look across the top...its has those places to click, HOME SUBSCRIBE MARKETPLACE etc. then there is the one that says ArcticCam...it is the same shot as before, but Samsons Hardware is gone.

Good Morning,sorry to hear that you are not doing well today.Jus wanted to stop by and let you know I'm thinking about you and praying you will be better soon.Get plenty of rest.

Hope you feel better soon, theres a lot of that going around.

I'm glad to hear you are feeling better and that you don't have a headache.I do believe in the power of prayer.Wishing you and good night and that you continue to keep getting better ((((Hugs)))

You are very much on my mind today. Please let me know how you are tomorrow!

Lady, glad to know you are feeling a bit better. Being sick is NO fun..this winter is going to be a long one with all the stuff thats going around!Have a nice day!

I wasn't blaming Jesse and Al.

What I was saying was they do little else to help the community of their culture with things that really matter. They only step in to raise hell when it's white on black crime, not when it's black on black crime.

Even Bill Cosby denounced that.

God bless.

RB

ladyBlue - i am glad that you saw the doc. i don't think you would have quickly recovered from those illnesses without some meds. I agree about ear infections - I feel sorry for kids, or anyone, with an ear infection. I am so glad you got some meds and will heal up with some rest. HUGS

Good Morning,how are you feeling? I hope you are doing much better.Keeping you in my prayers.

Lady- It was all over the news. It happened mid year so paychecks fluctuated. If one looks at their pay stubs and pays attention it is right there in front of you. If you did not know why you should ask. Again, we all know better that the money was not a gift. Common sense goes a long way. I am not an Obama supporter per say, but to blame his is just silly.

she still stinks. I have no respect for her at all. Her only way to get ratings is to leech onto a current horrible event then use her own panel to discuss the issue never once really contributing to a end resolution.

just thought you'd like to know...I found the list of the doctors on the panel about mammograms...it was quite an impressive list. However, not one single one of them was an oncologist...not one!

Juan big difference when the press tried to fry her they went to the throat and actually made fun of her down syndrom child on national tv. Do you think if man was running for VP and had a DS child they would have made fun. I think not. Why shouldn't she be allowed now that she has no political dweebs to be loyal too strike back out at the double standards played by the media on women and men in politics - Ladyblue

FYI, that wasn't me saying that. I was quoting another GOLOer. I completely agree with you on this.

http://hotair.com/archives/2009/11/17/feds-to-women-in-their-40s-skip-the-mammogram/

Ladyblue the phoenix!! You have risen from the ashes of worry, and you can now celebrate!! Congratulations on your 5 year triumph!!!! (((((Ladyblue!!!!!

"i am a survivor"

I am so happy to read that blog!! You are awesome

Ladyblue - thank you for posting such great happy news, especially with all the yuck out there. It's going to be some time before I will be able to say it but you have given me and many others more hope. Congratulations!

If you do not get a payroll check then if I am not mistaken this has no impact on you. What they did was give a stimulus in the form of a reduction in payroll taxes. The stimulus is only good for one indiviual in a household. So if you have two working members in your house, you needed to go back and manually adjust your with holdings to make sure you were not under withheld.

ladyblue, I think you could make a rock smile. You warm heart and joy in living is infectious.

Hi Ladyblue....Just hoping that your feeling all better now...Have a nice day tomorrow!

Good morning Ladyblue. I just wanted to stop by one moment and tell you congratulations on your victory!!! That's just awesome. Have a lovely day. :-)

Good morning Patricia! I love the way you're taking on the political front lately. Go get'em, gal! And have a lovely day!

T

LadyBlue, I completely agree 100%!!! I'm never rude, but it's really irritating.

been following the back on forth on the mammogram issue...there are some people that don't want you to "worry" about anything until AFTER legislation has passed (when it's too late). it's important to express your opinions, epsecially when there's a "government study" on anything, especially healthcare. While Health & Human Services hasn't adopted any new guidelines, as they relate to medicare and medicaid, we know this: they plan to cut hundreds of billions of dollars from those programs. But they don't indicate exactly what they will cut. They leave that part deliberately vague, in order to pass the bill, which includes the formation of a new bureaucracy, which will be where decisions are made (out of sight of the public). Will they use this study's recommendations? We don't know, but why wouldn't they use a study that we just paid for? What we have to do, is watch everything THEY do, head them off from going down a road that hurts the American people BEFORE they do it. Take care...

I love your new picture on your profile! I saw that sign in DC, and will have to say it's my favorite! The best thing we can do is keep fighting the good battle. My mom's going back in for another biopsy. She is 6 years (I believe) cancer-free after battling breast cancer. They found a problem in her mammogram. I guess we'll know something next week...Hopefully, she won't be fighting that battle again.

LB -

No problems. K

I really care about you.

And you know, as sure as I feel the fingers on the ends of my hands, I feel there is another man involved in the thing with Shaniya.

And not only that, it's logical too. McNeill didn't need to take that little girl to a hotel room to rape her. He could have done it in a car and saved himself some money.

He had to be meeting someone there. He HAD to be, and that person wanted the hotel room.

God bless.

RB

And for a laff, cause we need one now and then, especially now, please see this...

http://www.wral.com/golo/blogpost/6459884/

God bless.

RB

yes you may

testing

i will be off computer until my son can re fix me. I have this thing so screwed up i can't even see anything on here anymore.

testing again for print size

If the size on your comp still isn't working, try holding the control key and moving the scroll whell on your mouse. Up will make the text bigger and down smaller. Hope it helps, and have a great weekend!

"We have been moving towards socialism for decades but now we are contending with fascism...."

LB, some folks just refuse to see where these politicians are leading us all. Perhaps they like the structure of it all, takes the heat off of them regarding their own decision making abilities. There are those that find if too difficult to do and think for themselves. *insert shoulder shrug here*

Perhaps we can invent a new word for it...Fascialism, maybe. ;)

On a lighter note!!

Sweetheart, I am not sure I want to listen to that tape. THat is such a horrible ordeal. I hope you are having a super night though. Sending best wishes.

Sleep well my Friend, and I will see ya tomorrow. Goodnight.

"There is a thing about education and education is good but too much education and not enough experience is just as harmful because then we end up with educated fools." all self quoted by ladyblue.........

Ladyblue!!! I just LOVE that quote! OMG! That is amazing and WOW, sounds like something that should have been said way way back when, in the old days and just think, YOU came up with that! It should be printed somewhere and even students should learn that in school!! LOL! That is really good! {{{{{{{{{{{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}}}}}}}

Beth

Hey LadyBlue, remember that woman in Juneau that was smuggling cocaine? I just went back and looked at the comments and one of them said.....this is so funny.....I almost spit coffee out my nose....

Wouldn't that make it crack cocaine?

I hope you found that as funny as I did. Hope you are having a good morning.
