Take It Easy Song

[Guest guest]

Browne co-wrote Take It Easy with Glenn Frey of the Eagles who sang

lead vocals on the Eagles' track. It was the Eagles' first single and was

released on May 1, 1972 according to Wikipedia.

Way off topic! was: Re: to day is weigh in day

for the pig.

Hey, Mark!

Really on topic here!

Had to go do a little surfing to make sure of the lyrics, at least, part of

the lyrics:

Well I'm a-running down the road trying to loosen my load

I've got seven women on my mind

Four that want to own me, two that want to stone me

One says she's a friend of mine

Take it easy, take it easy

Don't let the sound of your own wheels drive you crazy

Lighten up while you still can

Don't even try to understand

Just find a place to make your stand and take it easy

(Here's where I got this:

http://www.springsteenlyrics.com/lyrics/t/takeiteasy.php)

It's a Bruce Springsteen site I guess, but it says these lyrics are from the

original Brown song. I thought, like someone else mentioned, it was

an Eagles song.

I'm with you about the 60s and 70s music! I know a few 80s, but once

Christian contemporary music came around (in the 80s), I quit listening to

regular pop music. But no doubt about it, the 60s and 70s music really

ushered in a new era, and I've got about 50 or so classics on my little mp3

player I often listen to at bedtime.

Now, back to your regularly scheduled blind-diabetics message topics!

I've always heard there is a web site to go and see the real words to a song.

I suppose I just always like adding my own instead. kind of takes the fun out of

it when you know the true words. really do appreciate hearing the words though.

the brain is getting kind of foggy now and kind of hard to see back that far in

a clear kind of way.

love the Eagles, but that song Hotel California is a song I can't figure out

and I do know the right words. even during my drugs days when I stayed stoned, I

still couldn't figure it out. You can check out any time you please, but you can

never leave. they stab it with there spearie knives, but they just can't kill

the beast. still love the Eagles even to day, but wouldn't go to one of there

live conserts now for free if they were doing a consert. listen to the CD and be

much happier.

Maybe in a way the Hotel California song is saying that like that ad you can

take Salem out of the country but you can't take the country out of Salem.

LOL. I heard a nasty joke that is not fit for a family group that is a take

off on that ad.

But maybe it means you will always be dependent on the drugs like the

alcohol treatment programs say you are just one drink away from going back

off the wagon. I have asked about that song because I could not

figure it out. I have never been an addict or an alcoholic although I like

the tast of some drinks, such as rum and Coke.

Do we as diabetics have to stay clear of alcohol or is a drink once in a

while on a holiday or something OK. I am going to the Olive Garden sometime

within the next month I hope, kind of a girls' lunch out with my daughter

and a good friend of mine. I would like to tip a nip there. I did last

September have two drinks of hot chocolate with kahlua. I imagine if we

don't abuse it. I am only on orl medication, not insulin and don't know if

that makes any difference. I also had a beer last summer on our front porch

when the kids were having a grilling party.

I say kids, they are all in late 20s and early 30s now but when I am pushing

60 they are kids, LOL.

I know you can have a few low carb beers and maybe some small amounts of the

hard stuff, but mixing it with juice and pop may not be a good idea unless it

was a diet pop or water. I ate some Chinese food last night with some friends

and I knew my sugar would be to high after that. I rode my bike for one hour

after eating it and my sugar at bed time was 130. don't even wish to know what

it could have been with out one hour on the no where bike. however, that hot

spicy chicken was grate and the egg roll was even better. didn't eat no nasty

rice though. could have tore a bucket of pork fried rice plum up, but no better

now. Chinese though isn't the food of choice for us who are diabetic, but some

times you got to slip over the edge and walk the plank! I suppose having alcohol

is no different then eating food. have small amounts and be smart about it and

you should be fine. always write a note about what you ate or drank that may

have raised your sugar and remember the next time what happened when you partook

of it. I got a note book of little reminders as this and they help a lot to make

me recall the past. that little meter really is my best buddy now and it is by

my side like a dog, man's best friend.

One of the interesting things about music (i.e. the lyrics) from that era is the

nonsense seen in the lyrics. Remember that group, oh what's their name, some

kind of insect or bug..came from England...oh yeah, The Beatles! We all live in

a yellow submarine? Now, what in the world are they talking about?

I'm sad to admit this, but done lots of acid when a drug head back in the

seventy's. when I done this drug I could still see and many different colors did

I see along with many lights. even when there was only one or two lights I seen

thousands of lights and the colors were out of this world for sure. maybe the

sub they were in may have looked yellow to them? I have never liked that group.

now you wish to talk about the beach boy's? really did dig this group. never

can't much for the rolling stones either, but you would think as a druggy I

would have dog such a band? don't worry though, haven't done any kind of drug

now since the late seventy's and won't either. no alcohol except for a low carb

beer from time to time. I get high on Jesus now and he is my drug of choice.

Were you partially blind then, and how was the drug taken?

The only one I tried was pot.

[Guest guest]

no I wasn't totally blind, but never seen well enough to not get in trouble

do to being blind. an old drug head as I was never worried about seeing what I

was putting in my mouth or my arm. the goad was to get stoned and what ever I

used would get me where I wished to be. not proud of those day's and most of the

guys and girls I hung with back then are mostly all dead from a over dose or

they are messed up in the head and don't know who they are or any one else. I

have no clue why I even done that crap other then wanting to fit in with the

croud or maybe I just thought nothing bad could ever happen to me. I dug grass,

but even Jane could cost a lot if you wanted the best. I tried it all.

didn't matter to me if you had to use a needle to get it to the blood stream or

just take it like a pill. smoke it, suck it up through my nose or what ever. the

goal was to get stoned and kick back. everything was funny when stoned and

nothing made much sense. like Forest Gump always said, stupid is as stupid does!

the only drug I done way back in my stupid day's that I actually liked a lot and

the high was cleaner then most drugs, was hash. I never had any sense when it

came to pills or what ever the drug was. people would say this will do that and

cause you to feel like this and it only cost you $5 a pill. so I would buy 5

pills and take a few. If I didn't get as high as I wanted to be, then I would

take one more. Acid was always a cheap drug and would kick your butt in the dirt

for a good solid eight hours for only $3 a hit. all kinds of names they would

call it, but the bottom line was acid by any name was still just acid. PCP, THC

Angel dust, no matter what name they gave it or got you to buy it was the key.

speed, well it come in ten or twenty different looks, but speed would always

make you go faster and feel like you needed to go faster. then there was

downers, they made you feel down and kind of mellow state of mind. upper's and

downers, go fast and then slow down, drop some acid and clime the walls, smoke

some grass or hash and just feel mellow or laugh at everything that happened

around you. most of my drug trips were fine and I never wanted to jump off a

bridge or run out in front of a big truck to kiss it. I seen many guys go on

some bad trips from drugs and it really messed them up for life. I never got

hooked or dependent on any drugs I ever tried and this was due to God taking

care of me for a plan he had for my life. hard to figure out why most of my

buddies then died or are totally messed up now and I was spared? God has a plan

for each of us and no matter how hard we fight to do it our way, in the end we

will carry out his plan for our life. I certainly am glad God is in charge and

it isn't just me making all the decisions. 5 years of alcohol and drugs. ten

years of grass. 25 years of no exercise and over eating, but always knowing God

was right there keeping his eyes on me and picking me up when I gave up on my

self. I was a born again Christian in 1977, but had to back slide so far back

that I figured God couldn't locate me no more. well once you become a child of

God's he isn't ever going to turn his back on you ever! I certainly turned my

back on him, but he never for got me. I've tried many times to just live stupid

and make really bad choices and still I live. I've tried to destroy what God

made and still I'm here. God has a plan and I'm going to carry out that plan

kicking and screaming if need be. I'm now 55 and it's a wonder I have made it

this far. I know lots of people I went to school with who never done lots of the

crazy stupid crap I have and they died way to young, yet I still live. why? well

it isn't for me to know the answer to this q. even back in 2007 when I had my

first heart attack that done 25% damage to the left side of my heart and then

ten days later I coded for 26 minutes before they could get my ticker to beating

once again and I still live. the doctor's and nurses said I was a miracle! I was

in the hospital for 29 days that month of August. then I have to go back to the

hospital for a pile of times during the past five years do to the heart and high

sugar and still I live. they told me I all most purchased the farm this last

time the end of February with the A fib, but still I live. but yet I hear all

the time there is no God or none of that would have happened to me. folks as

this are entitled to have there own opinion, but for the life of me I can't see

or understand how they can believe there is no God who is large and in charge!

for 2 months now I got it together and I got it going right because I trust and

believe in the fact there is a true loving God who I know personally. I now live

and breath because of a loving God who has a plan for my life and I will live

until that plan he has for me is finished. then I will go home to be with Jesus

for ever with no more pane or blindness! no more struggles or thorns to bare!

that will be a glories day and I'm ready right now, but if God says to remain

and continue on with this life after all I have been through trying to destroy

my self and not getting it done, then I will and I will love every moment of it

because my God has a plan for me and I wish to carry out that plan because he

loves me so much. I couldn't be eating right or exercising every day as I do or

controlling my diabetes as I'm doing with out the strength from my Jesus. makes

you wonder as it makes me wonder, why wasn't I gave the tools I needed to do

back then that I have now? well God has thoughts and plans much different then

us and his timing isn't like our timing. one million years to God is like one

day and the other way around. we can't know the answers and couldn't understand

if we did know. I wasn't suppose to have the tools back then. I wasn't ready. I

had to go through all that stuff in order to be prepared for now. I had no clue

that I was trying to destroy my self the past thirty years plus, but it is

exactly what I was about. we can't live life in a way that we ignore what the

good books tells us and make stupid and crazy choices and expect all will be

fine when and if we ever figure it out down the road. we don't know how much

time we got in this life. we have no way of knowing how our health is going to

react do to bad choices we make with our health. many folks done a lot less then

I done and they don't have a to morrow to make it right. why? only God know's

the answer. maybe they had all ready carried out the plan God had for them.

maybe there early exit from this world was what they had to do in this life.

don't for get, some one is always watching us. how we live, how we react to

life, how we tell our stories, how we feel about this, that and the other.

always some one or many are watching to see how we will react to life and the

struggles that life will bring to all. your life will always reach out and touch

others in some way. don't make the mistake by thinking no one ever notices what

you do or how you deal with life in general. life is like a big class room and

we are learning all the time. we don't stop learning until we stop breathing.

your struggles may be to help folks you don't even know or ever will know. the

same goes for me. God is large and he is in charge! who am I or you or any one

else to question God's methods of how he does it all? I tried for years to do

every kind of stupid I could think of to take me out of this world. I had not a

clue that was what I was doing, but it is the facts. wasn't going to happen

though until I have carried out the plan for my reason for being in this life at

this time. I certainly can't figure out why now after all that has happened to

me that I finally now have the right attitude to do what I have to do to loose

weight and control my sugar. I'm here to tell you from the bottom of my big old

pig heart, the last 2 months has been so easy, so smooth, I'm so in toon, I

don't even have to remember to ride my no where bike or make good choices when I

eat away from home. I finally gave up doing it all my way and told God that I

was fresh out of strength to get the job done. this is when he gave me the

attitude and tools I need to do what I'm now doing. I never could figure any of

this out until 2 months ago, the last time I went to the hospital. saying I

trusted him and saying I believed in him and saying he was God wasn't enough. I

had to prove it with not trying to do it all by my self and 2 months ago I gave

it all to him and told him I was fresh out of ability to get it done through my

own strength. why did I fight him for so many years? why couldn't I see the

answers were right there in front of me to see? sure is a good thing I'm not

God, because I would have gave up on me long ago and I would have stopped loving

me long ago. I would have allowed me to destroy my silly self and move on to the

guy that loved me and cared. it is just so cool to look back on my days of drugs

and alcohol and over eating and just living in a state of stupid and know that

God never gave up on me! here I am at the age of the double nickel and I got it

all going right now and it is all so easy, simply because it isn't my strength

that is getting the job done. it is all his and I'm allowing him to do so

through me. I love talking about my messed up day's and how I was thinking all

that time, because I can look back on it all and see God's hands all over it. I

am ashamed of most of the stupid things I done and just being so selfish with my

thinking, but yet if not for God's plan for my life, I may have checked out a

long time ago. some one is watching my life and they are learning from it so

they can carry out there plan as well. so I will do my part and be thankful for

the chance to please my Lord. I'm so blessed to be alive and I certainly don't

deserve it if you ask me, but I'm not in charge or the one in control of how he

feels. life is grate! loosing weight is grate! controlling my sugar is grate!

making smart choices is grate! I certainly do still have other issues in my life

and there is still lots to work on, but right now this small part of me that was

out of control for so many years is now in God's hands and out of mine. I sure

do appreciate you guys listening to me ramble like I just done. I sure don't set

out to ramble, but I believe at times like this the Holy Spirit gets in control

of my fingers and they fly over the keyboard and that is just how it is!

I meant to respond to this message of yours, Mar, earlier. I often find myself

looking up some lyrics. Just use your favorite means of searching, and include

the word, " lyrics, " along with a line or phrase you know to be correct. Even the

song title if you know it.

A drink every so often is okay. What you mix the alcohol with is the

problem for diabetics as so many mixes have a bunch of carbs in them also

some drinks have more sugar in them like rum. My doc says I can have one

drink a day, just don’t save up and drink 7 all at the same time! I don’t

drink even that, but maybe once or twice a month will have a glass of white

wine, or occasionally a shot of scotch or amaretto on ice or in coffee.\\\

that makes any difference. I also had a beer last summer on our front porch

when the kids were having a grilling party.

I say kids, they are all in late 20s and early 30s now but when I am pushing

60 they are kids, LOL.

to day is weigh in day for the pig.

Ok, 2 weeks ago to day, which was 4-20 I weighed in at 302. this morning

in

my birthing day suit I weighed in at 294. this looks like 8 pounds lost in

2

weeks to me if my math is correct. started at 317, so this is a total of

23

pounds since I started losing weight on 3-1-2012. just a tad over 2 months

and I feel very blessed. the journey continues down the trail. next stop

on

5-18-2012 Friday morning. that will be the next weigh in date to report.

will I lose another 8 pounds? well four pounds makes me happy and the rest

is a true blessing! Thanks be to the Lord!

I tried red dry and white dry wine and found them all to taste so nasty. I

told a buddy they tasted like horse piss, but really can't say that cause I

can't recall ever trying horse pee. don't think I could admit to it even if I

did. the sweet wine is the best, but then that sugar in it isn't good for me. I

suppose you do get use to the taste of dry wine after a while and maybe even

learn to like it, but so far I can't seem to locate one that I can drink with

out making a silly face.

More than 2 years ago, I went to see the Eagles at the Hollywood Bowl. They

were outstanding!

love the Eagles, but that song Hotel California is a song I can't figure out

and I do know the right words. even during my drugs days when I stayed

stoned, I still couldn't figure it out. You can check out any time you

please, but you can never leave. they stab it with there spearie knives, but

they just can't kill the beast. still love the Eagles even to day, but

wouldn't go to one of there live conserts now for free if they were doing a

consert. listen to the CD and be much happier.

I will admit they are in my top ten rock bands of all times for me that is. I

also like super tramp, bob Seeger, guess who, Vanhaylon, Fleet wood Mack, Dire

straights, BTO, and Lenard Skinner to just name a few. I also like old country

and very little of the new country. love the blues and some jazz. some disco I

like, but not all. Christian rock or country rock I also like. don't seem to be

as many good bands any more though or I'm just getting to old. I have noticed

that a lot of the bands we use to go pay good money to see in places that would

hold 20,000 people, now play at a lot of casino's that will only hold maybe

2000. don't know if they are flat busted or just can't give up the music. I

suppose when you can do something for a living like sing and play it is just

hard to give it up no matter the age. Actually it would be really difficult for

me to actually make a top ten list of my very favorite bands of all the

different types of music I like to listen to. maybe a list for each kind, but

never just ten over all.

I agree with that too. and I like the sweet wines and think the dry

ones taste like crap.

We used to drink things like Boone's Farm and Pear Ripple and I used to like

MD2020.

I can't imagine how much sugar must be in those. they don't even make

Ripple anymore I don't think.

Our daughter is really into wines and they always think they are so

sophisticated and some of that stuff tastes so nasty, LOL

Thanks, . I am glad I don't have to totally give it up. I would

not have it that often anyway but at least if something comes up like the

4th of July and the kids have a party I could have one and it shouldn't do

that much.

But it is easier to walk away the longer I don't have one.

That is cool. I saw Bob Seger when I was in high school and he came to our

school. He had not made it nationally yet. I would like to see that high

school try to get him now, LOL.

better make it a winning guess. a lady on another list just guessed I will

drop 35 pounds in only one month! I promised to clean her house and wash her

clothes and wash her feet and clean the windows. then promised to fluff her

pillow and make her breakfast in bed the next morning and promised to sing her

to sleep! I can certainly do the same for you if you are as well going to guess

35 pounds in only one month?

mad dog 20 20! have got so falling down drunk on that nasty stuff to many

times to count. I believe this is why I gave up drinking and started smoking

grass. Jane never caused me to throw up down my leg or wake up with a hang

over that kept me from walking up right for the whole day. on my knees or

crawling is all I could do. then I would tell God if he would only make me feel

much better I would never touch the nasty drink again! then the next weekend

would roll around and my fat pig butt was right back at the club throwing it

down once again. I actually know a few people that say they have never had a

hang over and never does alcohol give them a headache the next day. I think this

is really a bad thing for them. the hang over's is exactly why I gave it up.

No, I am not going to guess that. I wish I could do that in one month and

then I would never have to think about it again, LOL!
