A new blood-test resulting from research at Cambridge University could aid in the early diagnosis of recent-onset schizophrenia - complementing the traditional patient interview-based diagnosis.

Letters From The Heart
I just have to write about a very special lady by the name of Terry Rose. Terry Rose is a peach! Last year I won a blog contest to have Terry Rose from Letters From The Heart write to my 96 year old grandmother who is in assisted living. I was blown away by how kind and generous with her time she made for me. We spoke on the phone and she asked me what interests my grandma had or has. Things change when you get older so her golfing days have been long long gone.
Letters-From-The-Heart provides fun, inspiration, friendship, and that wonderful feeling of having something special to look forward to each month. My grandmother at first was like "who is this writing and always blamed my mom for doing it" Then I had the chance to tell her that I won her service for a year and that she will be writing to you for a year. She loves them and looks forward to Terry Rose writing to her now.
My grandmother gets special gifts tailored just for her. She really appreciates it and my mom does too. In fact so much that she signed up for another 6 months.
How does it work?
When you purchase Letters-from-the-Heart you purchase an entire year of friendship and enjoyment for your special family member.
This unique program includes a personalized, hand-written letter mailed to your loved-one at approximately the same time each month. It also includes a birthday card and gift and a festive holiday card and gift during the month of December.
I urge you to take a chance and visit her website or even call her. Ask any question you may have etc.... It is well worth the money and I would do this again for someone I don't even know. Just to bring a smile to their face.

Back to Basics
Well folks today is the day that I have gone a full day without playing any FB games. I have been taking it easy due to the fact that I have had heartburn aka Acid Reflux Disease flare up for the past two days. No medication nor chewing on antacids is going to take this away. You would think I would learn to chill on the foods that I am supposed to avoid. How can one resist with such temptations such as chocolate, fried greasy foods and mini donuts. We went to see a movie yesterday and the popcorn must of had bad butter. It was the most disgusting thing I have ever had. We both were so sick from it. But yet after only an hour we went out to dinner. Of course I had a Slippery Banana and water. My DH had potato skins loaded. Will we ever learn? Probably not till we both have heart attacks. Sad issue going on here.

I Used to:
I used to groove to many kinds of music. Before I got stuck on FB. So I have been using YouTube.com to listen to many of the bands I would listen to before my obsession with Facebook games etc...
One of my many favorites is PHISH. Phish became one of the most significant live music phenomena of all time.
Talk about being obsessive. I fit this to the "T" I listened day and night and breathed Phish. Then it all stopped.

The End Part 2
Suddenly I had this feeling of "screw it" I have to get off Facebook Games. So I did. If you happen to come along and see that I am no longer on your Facebook Friends well then that is because you have been deleted my friend. Don't take it personally but if I am going to stop playing games then you needed to depart as well.
I am keeping Facebook open because there is loads of other stuff on there that can be of interest. For instance a blog by the name of Bitchy Waiter
Check it out it's hilarious....
Continued...
For the first time in over a year or so we went to a the movie Shrek in 3D. It was awesome. I remember as a kid getting those paper glasses, not this time they are black and remind me of The Blues Brothers. It was a great time out. We then went for a long ride trying to get lost but to no avail we ended up where we started.
We stopped and got a bite to eat at Culver's which is a hamburger joint. Which was even better because we had the chance to use our Barter Bucks and saved a bit of moola. It was such a nice day and I hope that we can do it again sometime.
I am still disappointed that I can't return to Facebook games but I will take what we did today over any foolish game again.

The End
As I sit here trying to get into my Facebook game since early this evening, I think maybe this is a sign a sign to finally close shop and get the heck out of dodge. Inside I am terrorized to think that I won't wake up to my neighbors anymore. I keep thinking of excuses of what I will miss. I won't miss a dang thing and no one will miss me. True isn't it? I play games my life is one big game. No one will care if they are missing a neighbor. No one will care if they don't receive food anymore. No one will care if I close up and say that's it.
I guess I could go back to a passion I had and Sweep to my hearts content. I did quite well with that. Won a lot of things on blog contests and of course there I go again and spend endless hours in front of the computer entering tons of stuff just to see if I can win a key chain with a company I don't even really know about. What a joke.
I guess you will have to wait and see what the outcome of my Facebook playing days will be.... Until then have a fantastic night and enjoy your loved ones.

Another day Another Game
Here I thought I was doing good. I closed all my games down, yes all of them. But then a new game came out on June 9th. There I was ready and waiting to play. FrontierVille was the game I was going to concentrate on "only." Yeah right. I have been doing great so far but I also have a little itty bitty secret. I play my son's and my DH's when they are not home. I do get things done believe it or not. My home is always clean, dishes washed and food on the table. Errands get side tracked but other than that I pretty much stay on top of things.
I don't watch t.v. anymore or spend time with DH. I just get so wound up on FB and everything else that I can't control it. I do need some help. I have three hours of free time this evening and where am I? Right here. I should be concentrating on letting my eyes get a break.
