Helen Hunt Jackson- September Poem

The goldenrod is yellow,
The corn is turning brown,
The trees in apple orchards
With fruit are bending down;

The gentian’s bluest fringes
Are curling in the sun;
In dusty pods the milkweed
Its hidden silk has spun;

The sedges flaunt their harvest
In every meadow nook,
And asters by the brookside
Make asters in the brook;

From dewy lanes at morning
The grapes’ sweet odors rise;
At noon the roads all flutter
With yellow butterflies–

By all these lovely tokens
September days are here,
With summer’s best of weather
And autumn’s best of cheer.

dyk my brother's accident even made the national CNN broadcast
dyk I talked to him yesterday and his description of it was terrifying.
dyk I told my doctor that the steriods must be really tweaking my emotions, because I have been so freaked out this
dyk she thought my reaction had NOTHING to do with steriods. She is probably right

dyk check this out

EPA Omega-3 Fish Oils - Research suggests that people that have Bipolar Disorder may benefit by up to a 25% reduction in symptoms when they take fish oil capsules that are high in the EPA (a type of Omega-3 fatty acid) form of oil. It is important to be careful about the type of fish oil you are using - because not all fish oils are effective. The researchers at the University of Scheffield tell us that "What people really need to be looking at is the amount of EPA in the fish oil they are buying. Our data from previous studies suggests that DHA is of little use in the treatment of bipolar disorder but EPA is the substance that yield the best results. Dosage wise it is suggested that about 2,000 mg/day to 4,000 mg/day ( 2 to 4 grams/day) should help."

dyk adding medicine or vitamins to the schedule is easy -- she already takes medicine 4X's per day so we just add the vitamin or new med or whatever into one of the time slots via adding the pills to the correct box.

dyk I don't think the steroids have anything to do with your reaction

dyk it freaks me out to hear about it and even know by association someone in the accident and I am several times removed from it

dyk in our area, a mom of 3 was in an accident (I do not know her -- article in paper) this morning and did not survive

dyk single car rollover on the highway

dyk her 3 kids 9,6,5 were in the car and walked away unharmed

dyk the mother was not wearing a seatbelt but the kids were all carseated and belted appropriately

dyk I am pretty keyed up lately and this just infuriated me that the mom did not protect herself

dyk I don't know her and yet I am pissed.

dyk Ellie never really slept I don't think from 12:30 to 2:15 because I heard her talking and giggling and when I went in to get her to go get Dek off the bus -- she had a dirty diaper

dyk so she's back down with her baba and I bet she sleeps for at least 90 minutes

dyk there are 4 kids that get off at our bus stop now

dyk it's kinda fun to all be there waiting lol for our kindergarteners

dyk and the bus does drive by our house still on the way out of the neighborhood and there was a little boy that poked his head out of the window and hollered HI DEKLAN!!! as they went by

dyk and Dek shouted back, Bye Trey!

dyk it was adorable.
