Apparently it's Black Bearspeak. Obviously developed for eastern audiences. If you can learn Black Bearspeak, I can teach you the differences between that and my language — Brown Bearspeak.

I have also lived with chronic depression since I was in my teens. Using some imperfect skills, I can usually manage both those kinds of pain. But often I cannot; and sometimes I become a walking disaster, so to speak. Hence, my need to get into the pain clinic.<br /><br />I'm learning new skills, though I never expect to be pain free, in either way.<br /><br />Thank you for your concern, Sandie.Rob-bearhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00171692478879522588noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1780769436411348454.post-10843748710473827962012-03-11T20:39:27.553-06:002012-03-11T20:39:27.553-06:00As I was walking through the Phoenix airport last ...As I was walking through the Phoenix airport last week I thought I saw "Rosetta Stone" software for BearSpeak ... do you recommend it?<br /><br />(my feeble attempt at bringing humor into your life)Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16619199535376925989noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1780769436411348454.post-4885695968161422112012-03-10T22:02:32.250-06:002012-03-10T22:02:32.250-06:00® Blog Fodder: This pain reduction thing is workin...® Blog Fodder: This pain reduction thing is working well enough.

The pain management clinic does seem to be helping you with the latter and that's very good news.<br /><br />One question from a newby to your blog though - who is/was Miss Sadie and where is she now?

Sorry, but I do not know the past here (other than to decipher that there were actually past winters when you hibernated). <br /><br />Knowing you are feeling sad makes me relieved that you have the new pain management resources. That is at least part of the battle won. <br /><br />You are much appreciated and loved, and I will be thinking of you as we head over to the coast Saturday afternoon for one night. Evidently, we are to experience a vast change from the nice, sunny days we've had lately, as they mentioned possible snow over the coast range, with not one but three huge rain systems coming our way beginning ....well, just about now!<br /><br />♥Lydiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11135393270656573516noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1780769436411348454.post-74560737895648025412012-03-10T03:30:58.972-06:002012-03-10T03:30:58.972-06:00Winter always seems to want to have the last word ...Winter always seems to want to have the last word ...
