I've been tagged by Renee over at My Special K's to do the Archive Meme. Thanks Renee!
Here are the rules -
Go back through your archives and post the links to your five favorite blog posts that you’ve written. But there is a catch:
Link 1 must be about family.
Link 2 must be about friends.
Link 3 must be about yourself.
Link 4 must be about something you love.
Link 5 can be anything you choose.
Link 1) Many Hats: On raising a child with Schizophrenia. This was very difficult for me to write, but more difficult to live through. I know there are others struggling with this...the secret life of a parent who's child suffers from Mental Illness.
Link 2) Overlapping Guests Ok, so this is a funny post about Angela's friends. I have a few friends, but only rarely do I actually SEE them. I'm not exactly sure why except that I know it has to do with everyone having busy schedules, myself included! LOL
Link 3) Who...me??? Honest, someone said this to me!
Link 4) The Gift of Riding Alone As it was pubished in Biker Alley Magazine in August '07
Link 5) It Sneaks Up On You My first ever blog post, written June 30, 2005. If you haven't taught kids to drive yet, you might want to read this one! LOL

Addiction vs. Addiction
So Dean is trying to quit smoking using the patch method. I have to say, I'm very proud of him. He's been smoking a couple packs every day for 33 years, so I know this is a difficult thing for him to do.
On the weekends, he usually sleeps in until 5:30 a.m. (no really, thats sleeping in for him! Isn't that sad?) goes to the basement for a smoke, and pretty much hangs out down there most of the day. Occasionally he'll play some online games, but mostly he's just downstairs. But now he's not smoking, and he really doesn't WANT to be in the man cave that is associated with smoking.
My routine is to wake up around 8:30, make breakfast for Angela, feed the dogs, then sit down for my morning dose of email and internet. However, this morning when I got up...who should I find sitting at the computer but Dean? This isn't completely unheard of though. The problem was an hour later he was still there....and my fingertips were itching to touch the keyboard. I knew sooner or later he was going to have to pee, or get more coffee or something. Eventually he needed to search for something and needed my help and I was able to scoot into the chair.
I think we're going to have to get a second computer now.
