I had been working in medical for a few years in a plastic surgery office in northern VA, so landing another job in the same field, you can imagine my excitement. Little did I know that the man who owned the chain (Rick Scott) was a crook and years later (now) would run for Florida Governor! As after everyday I have my wind down time, and last night it happened to be in front of the television and honestly I was half paying attention and half texting several people at once, so needless to say I wasn’t paying that close attention until I saw his face plastered on the television in front of me! At that moment I wanted to watch that again, to be positive I had seen and heard the commercial correctly! I got to work this morning and googled this immediately, and it is true…I am still shocked they would allow this crook to run for Governor!

For those of you who aren’t familiar with Rick Scott, do your homework! Not only was he an asshole boss, he is the biggest health care liar and crook around! His hospital company paid the largest fine in U.S. history, $1.7 billion, for defrauding American taxpayers out of hundreds of millions in phony expenses. It appeared they were reimbursed for care they never even provided for patients! The company that represented Scott and John O’Neill through this scandal also represents Golden Rule Insurance Companies, an early advocate of health savings accounts, a concept that manages to find its way into Scott’s dark attack on health care reform.
Florida…ask yourself, do you want to have our reputation damaged anymore than it has been already? If this guy gets into office I most definitely think it will hurt us rather than help us! Please make the right decision when voting time comes around!

I found a way to make a little extra cash, at home!  I know what you are thinking, working from home, yeah right it must be a scam.  Let me assure you it is in no way a set up at all!  You are getting paid to write buying guides for Shopwiki.com, the topics are endless, and are usually a lot of fun.  I have included one of my own to show you just how fun and easy it can be to “Wiki”!  Check it out here! This Wiki was done on DKNY bathtub mats, I hope that it helps you better understand the process of buying guides!

Most of you that come here and read my nonsense, have of course seen one of my first posts about alcohol addiction. A woman that I will refer to as LH reached out to me recently about this previous post about her battle with the same disease that stemmed from her sexual abuse as a child. She was unable to cope with the pain her heart felt, so she turned to alcohol, and at first it was something to take her mind off of the pain. It soon grabbed her like a muscular man not willing to let go..luckily se was able to find the inner strength to get out of the addiction before it became too strong. I am inserting an excerpt of the email she sent my way! If you or someone you know are struggling with any type of addiction please get help, as I am not a professional…I am just a writer looking to help others through the personal dealings with this disease.

LH wrote to me on 2/4/2010

Her story is as follows;

It was an extremely moving and well written piece so I looked at some of your other blogs and decided to follow them. You hail from my home state (I was born in Atlanta, Georgia) and your views are pretty unusual for the deep south, at least from what I can remember. I’ve been out in LA for years.

Anyway, I too have had personal experience with addiction. My dad was an alcoholic my whole life and I am a survivor of sexual abuse until I was 12. He was also a preacher, Methodist, in South Carolina. And nobody in my family believed me. I stuffed all of these memories so deeply until I began therapy when I was 26 and then it all came out. And it was ugly. So I partied on top of them. For ten years. I and watched my career dreams as a writer/director start to disappear. Lots of stuff happen, I barely stayed out of jail and without a home. And a friend who had what I wanted pulled me into a meeting and I got sober. That was 9 years ago Jan 17. Saved my life.

But the way you described your mother needing to drink even though she was killing herself I understand. I was doing that to myself too. And it was something bigger than myself that pulled me out. To this day I don’t truly understand how I got out.

There is more to come…so please come back!
