Welcome! Come join us for laughs and lyrics, tears and truth, and whatever else you wanna chat about! We wanted to share a special poem, we'd hang it on the door, but they won't let us have sharp objects down here! A Special Bond by Rae Scales Even though we have never met, I feel a bond between us. A bond that should have taken years to build, Yet was built in a month or two. A bond that lifelong friends should have, Although most never do. A bond that I am glad to share with you... My Friend and Confidant. You are not here in body and soul, But as a lighted rectangle. You come to me every day as A message on my screen, A message that I can rely on To cheer me up and make my day. Through a keyboard we share Our ups and downs. I have opened my inner self to you, And you have to me as well. We have traded secrets and laughs, As well as sorrows and pain. I have never met you, but feel as if I have known you most of my life. To most this might sound silly, But I assure them, it is not.

Hi Everyone, Just finished my lunch... I had to eat early today was just so darn hungry. I didn't have any protein with breakfast and by 10am my stomach is rumbling. Had a great lunch. Chopped spinach salad with cucumber and shredded turkey with lowcarb Ceasar dressing in a Pita pocket, and made my own hummus yesterday so had some Melba Toast and hummus.... yummy. I don't know if its too early to be having cravings or if its just my body's natural way of telling me what foods I need, but hummus, tahini(anything Greek) has got my vote and fruit... OMG Strawberries, Cantaloupe, Pears, you name it I want it. AH was still a jerk most of the weekend and unfortunately I'm just feeling numb the last few days. Hormones are hell.

I actually had a dream two nights ago that I was pregnant with a little girl. That night I had a about five of the same dream. Well it wont be happening with me my daughter and son is enough for me.

That's interesting about the dream Jewelz... my mom told me her sister had a dream two weeks ago that someone in our family would be having a little girl.. she dreamt this last Saturday... the day I found out I was pregnant. I am thinking pink... I think it would level out the testosterone in my house. LOL

Yeah Palm... AH has a hard time understanding the hormones of a female... he is so consumed with his own thoughts and problems... part of which are our problems but he doesn't communicate his feelings very well. As I am reminded A's even in recovery are very self absorbed individuals.

So glad you were able to take care of that Cindi.. Palm... it is sad when the people we love and are close to us cannot be there back for us... its part of having healthy relationships that they just don't seem to get. My AH's family don't really even talk to each other. They talk about stuff and things that are superficial... but they have no idea how to really express their emotions or have a deep meaningful conversation. I think I'm probably the most emotional one they have had around and I'm sure I make them uncomfortable with my "touchy feely" talk.

LOL, oh heavens no Palm... no pink for me or blue either. Ever since I gave birth to Michael the Nuvaring has been my best friend since I always forget to take the pill. I opted for a salad for lunch. But I am so in the mood for mexican food.

Well looks like AH has the opportunity to go to West Palm Beach to work for the next three weeks. Pay seems to be pretty good... now we just have to figure out what bill doesn't get paid this pay period so he can go out there cause he says it would be three weeks before he'd even get a check. Ugh!!! That means everything will be late... as long as it gets paid that's all I care about.

I did send out an email hopefully with a slide show of pictures of Brooklyn - if you didn't get it, pm you email address to me & I'll send it to ya. Getting ready for the BIG Game tonite - GEAUX TIGERS!!!!!! about 20 of our friends coming to the house to watch the Tigers Wanna hear the menu? of course you do huh? Chicken & Sausage Gumbo Potato Salad Chicken Spaghetti w/Red Sauce Yeast Rolls Crackers Chips & Dip King Cake (Strawberry & Cream Cheese - a Mardi Gras Tradition) Chocolate Cake (For those who don't like King Cake - ME of course - lol) You think I need something else? Ya'll wanna come over - let me warn ya tho - it will be very, very loud - because of course my crew thinks Les Miles (coach of LSU) and the referees can here them thru the TV if they just yell a little louder!!! ok - off to read what I missed over the weekend.
