| Penny for your thoughts part 67 Once Again We start another journal of laughs and lyrics, tears and truth, and whatever else you want to share! Whatever our differences, we have found a common bond of friendship, kindred spirits and unconditional love. We wanted to share a special poem, we'd hang it on the door. 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. __________________ |

| woohoo I got to do it but I cheated I just copied and pasted everything into a new thread. I bet Teke would never had thought that this thread would have gone on so long... but it is even if we have a few absences lately or even if people did move on. But so much has been shared through here and yes we dont always agree or get along with one another but to me I see that as normal in some ways... just cause we care for one another.. and also because we are different people from different places and all have our own road to go down. Hugs, Jewelz |

| Thanks Jewelz for starting this..... I'm to the point that I don't really care who doesn't like me or what I have to say......it's THEIR problem. Not trying to be a b!tch but.....really, I've had my a$$ jumped more times in the past couple of weeks and frankly it was all highly uncalled for. Oh well......to each their own. |

| Just saying hi. Having an emotional day today. Realized I think I may have forgotten to take my meds a few days over the last week (when I was in hyper mood, Im sure) Now its just a struggle to do anything. |

| Didnt know we were jumping your a$$ I was just asking you a question, wasnt meant to be such a BIG deal. I guess its drama though. Anyone here can say anything they want to me or ask me anything or call me out. I dont get mad, I answer and maybe take a second to look at my actions cause you guys might see something that I dont see. Like jewelz said the way you read it and the way I meant it was obviously different. Thats all. Can we get over it? I have the day off tomorrow YIPPEEE of course this day is going slow. Jewelz that sounds very nice what you bought I'm sure he will like it. Hope everyone has a great weekend. The carnival is in our town this weekend so you know where I will be sigh....... |

| Oh yes it does I have a very fulfilling life outside of SR. I have alot of f2f friends who love me for who I am honestly and all, I have a loving family who appreciates who I am and I will do anything for. I have A loving fiance who treats me like gold and loves me for who I am also. He respects me and appreciates me. So I think I have a pretty fulfilling life outside of SR. Thanks for asking though.  |

| Well I am having a pretty crappy day at work, as well with this headache. I am not feeling okay at all. Connie and Kim it really saddens me to see the back and forth but I guess thats how it is now. I do believe we have an ignore feature on SR maybe that would be useful. Many of us come here for support because really for many of us this is the only place where people understand the ups and downs of our lives. To me one of the best slogans for the programs is Take what you want and leave the rest. As for me i have an hour and fifteen minutes left to this work day then I am outta here. Jewelz |

| Just for the record....I was not directing my comment earlier at Kim. So....with that said, and since I have issues with other people outside of SR, like said xah and his family....uh well, just might not be about HER huh? I'm outta here too. And.....I do take what I want and leave the rest. |

| LOL whatever. Jewelz I hope you take care of your headache advil really helps with mine. This is a great place to share yet we are all different and we wont always agree with what the other person has to say we dont have to take it the wrong way and if its misunderstood just ask for clarification. I never intend to hurt anyones feelings I thought that was what the E, S, H was all about I was sharing mine. I have lived with an addict, I have been an addict, I have walked in your shoes and I understand what everyone is going through. I can keep my opinions to myself of course. Have a great weekend and take care everyone. |

| Good morning, My mom gave me something for my headache thank god it helped. I got home cleaned some and mopped. My floors felt refreshing!! Michael was something else last night... I hate to say it about my baby but hes getting bad!! First he takes his pacifier and throws it behind my wall unit. My wall unit is huge and hard to get behind it. So while I am trying to get his pacifier back, hes drinking icetea and I swear he spilled it on the floor on purpose.... then I am telling him he needs to stop he gets a hold of a combination lock and when I try to get it he throws it across the room and it hits a glass table. I almost freaked out. he got sent to bed for a little while. When I finally got the pacifier back he starts saying YEAHHHHH! and clapping his hands. I look at my child and say to myself that if you didnt put it behind there in the first place I wouldnt have hhad to struggle to get it back. Remember guys when I posted about my daughters dad and his wife saying I should meet them instead of them picking her up and dropping her off. Well since that day there has been silence between us. I didnt text them and they didnt text me. Well his wife text me yesterday morning asking if they could have her the whole weekend. Now my daughter is happy... I am kinda happy.. cause I get a brake from her a bit but I always miss her once shes gone. Well its friday!!! yeah! Twenty minutes down another 7 hours to go!! LOL Jewelz |

| Morning everyone, jewelz-isn't it strange how those little ones just seem to wake up with those attitudes? hope your daughter has a good wkend with her dad. lies - glad things are going ok - so tomorrow is my daughter, Katrina's bday so she, the 3 girls, my Mom & I are all going shopping - see, you guys thought I was a sane person,  ha - WRONG It will be a wild day - but hey - I'm the kinda woman that lives life on the edge!!! I already know what will happen - Lexi will be dancing & trying to do cartwheels in the store Bella will be wanting to get the no no after some one who ticks her off Brookie will be giggling at everyone & since she has found her voice, probably squealing at everything Katrina will be stressing about turning 26. My Mom will be trying to make everyone happy. and I will just be grateful that I have enough recovery to see the humorous side of the insanity of actually trying to shop with that much chaos. Oh it's going to be a hilarious day tomorrow - I can't wait. I'm probably going to be a bad ReeRee tomorrow & spoil them all rotten!! hope everyone has a wonderful friday - I'm going to russle up some breakfast |
