GOOD EVENING TO ALL FRIENDS AND VISITORS, THANKS FOR COMING BY AND THANKS FOR READING THIS IF YOU DO!

Hello all, as I always hope and wish for you-that you and yours are doing well, it means a lot for me that you are!
I wanted to communicate a few things on my mind, in the best way I know how, that is NOT in a poll! By the way, if I haven't told you yet, I really appreciate all your comments and votes on them, it's how I've came to know so many of you on a more personal level and how I've met a lot of you also. Just so you know, any personal information you leave in my polls, on any comments, notes or otherwise, I wouldn't ever exploit that information in any way. And feel free to ask me for my opinion too, if you don't see it in the comments.

Anyway, I also wanted to say thanks for all your support, love and warm wishes, advice, suggestions and well, all of it-you've given me when I came out to let you all know that I've been unwell for awhile now. I've been in bed last day and a half, and when I wake up, I have read all the comments on my last journal and on my page and last submissions, it's just been hard for me to sit up sometimes, this is when I get most severe pain it would appear to me. On that note, I've followed a ton of your advice and have wrote into a law firm that all they do is sue the Cleveland Clinic. Those bastards are so sneaky, they have tech people who all day long, go through and swipe out anything negative on Google and other main search engines. This I found out through research on the deep, deep web, in local blogs and have been figuring out the 'code words' people are actually having to use in order to avoid their filters! My God! Tens of thousands of people are in positions just like mine. The kicker is that my insurance company, Anthem Blue Cross/Blue Shield called me to do a 'health check' as to the large amount of bills they are getting from them. I mean, they send you to specialist after specialist who aren't special in any way, just for profit. Well, the supervisor I spoke with at my insurance company told me that 'they have not once heard one client have anything but negative to say about their experience at Cleveland Clinic'. I swear it, she said this verbatim! (my.clevelandclinic.org/)
I remain totally and 100% 'blacklisted' from their services. In fact, a medicine I've been on for over 17 years now, they just cut off today, the day it's due for a refill. So I'm going to become very, very sick in the next few days if I can't get this medicine. I hope they burn. I mean it, I'm not an angry person by nature, and I've seen some crap go down in my life, but the amount of betrayal, being left for dead and paying them for it, just makes me want to see them burn. I am still on my own suicide watch, trying to find any hope at all, to fight this fascist corporate conglomerate, it makes me seriously want to just die by my OWN hands and not theirs.
BUT I BETTER SHUT UP NOW, FOR MY OWN SELF AND IN CASE IT DOES GO INTO LITIGATION!

I have anyway, been thinking about a ton of stuff, as one does when one isn't feeling too good and is sort of stuck in bed!
One big thing that reoccurs is, when I think about dA, which I do a lot, is the amount of my friends and yours, who don't have the perks that come with premium membership. I use the points I receive to give away a little bit at a time to others, it's fun, and like when I get them-it makes people happy! But really, how do we decide who gets a point and who doesn't? If it were up to me, I'd give them to every page I go to! Ha ha! When I get paid, I try to give one or two people a membership, but it doesn't seem fair to others who I don't, I get to feeling guilty. I know there are a lot of contests out there, but my friends I have in my circle, well, they all have so many different types of art, literature and other mediums. So that wouldn't seem a reasonable way to go about giving away a membership.
So I wanted to do something else, every two weeks be able to give away two memberships totaling like four per month. But I'd need your help if you are able to. My idea is to have those leave their name in the journal comments here and at the end of two weeks from today (November 26) I'd put all the names randomly and do a lottery drawing! That would be so much fun! And the other one, would be from comments on your pages or mine, taking suggestions based on an a paragraph or two from the member who needs a premium telling what they would do with it...I would love to know what that would be, you never know what kind of creativity and skills people have do you? Like perhaps a young adult is really studying and has learned HTML/CSS coding and wants to create journals, custom boxes, etc., or they want to do art features, or do polls (ha ha) or any of the other things that come with the Premium membership. But that brings up a whole new question of how to divvy up the points. For instance, would "I" do a points drive? I already have a donation box on my page and give away the points that are given to me.
I would just love to hear any ideas to make it sort of fun, and right now, fun is needed in my life and I know everyone who managed to read this also loves a little fun too, even to the point of being childish!! So thank you in advance to you who comment, and I want to thank those who I still need to comment back to for being as always, patient with me. No need to express any more concern for my health here, you've all gone way above and beyond what I'd ever expect-and I love you for it so much! Oh boy, now I am all teary eyed! I love you all so much, if you only knew just how much I couldn't do without you, every single one of you are so unique and important to me and to the world! Have a good evening/morning, depending on your part of the planet!

DON'T FORGET TO -IF YOU'RE NOT ALREADY A PART OF THE GROUP, TO JOIN AND SUBMIT TO US AT
...even though I'm not a big part of it these days, your support is so welcome because (and ignore this if you don't do groups, we understand) this one group is more about the artist then skill level or type of art you create, and much more about caring for those of us who live on this planet we call home and do indeed care for it's nature (me, you, trees, rivers, etc.!) Thank you again!
Love and peace to all!
