It Is Sinking....But I'm Still Swimming

Just realizing I might need to warn you all that posts may become a bit different over the next few months.

After the discovery of Nemo (that's his name now), my world has been a bit rocked.

Part of me is very hesitant to post here about it. As odd as it sounds, I've realized I am a care-taker. I care more about how those around me are doing/responding/reacting to events in my life, than my own responses and reactions. As long as they're ok and still functioning, I'm ok too. So I have this insane need to keep them all doing just fine. So if you read and it freaks you out...I guess you're just going to need to skip it.

I'm realizing I might need an outlet. And if my outlet can't be in written format, I'm not sure what else can be. So - Belt yourself in. Here we go. I promise for some normal, fun, Trixie posts between. But Nemo is going to be a recurrent theme for a while.

Things I realized/wondered today:

  • They're going to operate on my brain, take off part of my skull, and probably get rid of some of my hair. (NO! Not the HAIR!)
  • I'm going to be under general anesthetic for the 'better part of a day'
  • Being under general anesthetic has inherent risks. I've got things to plan. Maggie needs a mom.
  • My mother might be spending a lot of time in my home unaccompanied. You know the bit about your 'toy drawer'. Time to clean up the 'toy drawer'!
  • Just how long do I want my mom to stick around? Just while I'm in the hospital? How long after that?
  • At what point is it ok for me to evict or kill her?
  • Can I join league tennis this fall? What if I can only play a few weeks?
  • How long til I can drive?
  • How long til I can fly? I'm gonna wanna see my nieces ASAP.

I'm still ok. I'm still swimming. Just so you know....I treaded water the longest in my sixth grade swimming class. So there is no worry of me drowning. None at all. This is what I do.

Just keep swimming, swimming, swimming.........

===============
"BREAKING NEWS"
===============

-Energy and Asset Technology, Inc. (EGTY) owns a global license to market
the genetically enhanced Global Cedar growth trees, with plans to
REVOLUTIONIZE the forest-timber industry.

These newly enhanced Globa| Cedar trees require only 9-12 years of growth before they can
be harvested for lumber, whereas worldwide growth time for lumber is 30-50 years.

Other than growing at an astonishing rate, the Global Cedar has a number of other benefits.
Its natural elements make it resistant to termites, and the lack of oils and sap found in the wood
make it resistant to forest fire, ensuring higher returns on investments.
T
he wood is very lightweight and strong, lighter than Poplar and over twice
as strong as Balsa, which makes it great for construction. It also has
the unique ability to regrow itself from the stump, minimizing the land and
time to replant and develop new root systems.

Based on current resources and agreements, EGTY projects revenues of $140 Million
with an approximate profit margin of 40% for each 9-year cycle. With anticipated
growth, EGTY is expected to challenge Deltic Timber Corp. during its initial 9-year cycle.

Deltic Timber Corp. currently trades at over $38.00 a share with about $153 Million in revenues.
As the reputation and demand for the Global Cedar tree continues to grow around the world
EGTY believes additional multi-million dollar agreements will be forthcoming. The Global Cedar nursery has produced
about 100,000 infant plants and is developing a production growth target of 250,000 infant plants per month.

Energy and Asset Technology is currently in negotiations with land and business owners in New Zealand,
Greece and Malaysia regarding the purchase of their popular and profitable fast growing infant tree plants.
Inquiries from the governments of Brazil and Ecuador are also being evaluated.

Conclusion:

The examples above show the Awesome, Earning Potential of little
known Companies That Explode onto Investor�s Radar Screens.
This s-t0ck will not be a Secret for long. Then You May Feel the Desire to Act Right
Now! And Please Watch This One Trade!!
