Glad you got yours, Ann, after all.. Belated HAPPY CANADA DAY to all my Canadian friends "up there."

IO Storm · 07-01-2009, 10:40 PM

Hey green D.

Not a lot of whines, actually it was a good day!

I had a good Dr. appt., then went with friends to see "Hangover"...funnee.

Problem is...we went to lunch, I wolfed down a pastrami sandwich..(yum),

then popcorn and a box of Hot Tamales (cinnamon jelly beans with a zip),

more soda..the popcorn is still swelling, no kidding!

I feel and look like a foundered sow....

Help.

this too shall pass

IO Storm · 07-01-2009, 10:42 PM

Hope you feel better tomorrow Midgie.

I concede to Least, kids ranks way higher on the Whinometer than weather...and I enjoyed the fireworks wayyy too much (Toby too).

Good Morning Whiners!

espresso · 07-02-2009, 02:40 AM

Not a whine but I see forum is being updated so no whines for me later on today

Mind you I haven't got any right now

Let's see 10am PST = 8pm UK time

**Ann** · 07-02-2009, 03:23 AM

Nothing like an upgrade to set the whines awhining.

I have an extra supply of tissues, just in case I can't get in here.

10 am Pacific Time = 1 PM Eastern, Noon Central and 11 AM Mountain

Rusty Zipper · 07-02-2009, 03:50 AM

least · 07-02-2009, 04:54 AM

Have been up half the night sick as a dog, can't sleep and too sick to sleep even if I were able to sleep. And it's raining today too...

Fubarcdn · 07-02-2009, 05:30 AM

I have a slight mixup with my Visa account and I have to call them to straighten it out. (minor whine) but if I have a problem with that I will be back with a major whine bordering on a full blown rant.

**Dee74** · 07-02-2009, 05:37 AM

Night all

I'll try to get that sunrise tomorrow Ann

Correction 10am PST is 6pm here. It was too early when I wrote that.... not enuf coffee

least · 07-02-2009, 06:18 AM

It's no wonder I'm sick! I'm under too much stress and it's taking a toll on my stomach. Just went in dk's room for something and found a strange kitty in there!!! I put him outside and now ck is mad at me cause I put him outside! He might be someone's cat for all I know. I only know that I'm not a one-woman humane society and am sick of the kids acting like I am!

Having a full blown anxiety attack right now and can't calm down. I'm so sick of this sh!t I could scream!

If there's no rest for the wicked, then I must be pretty bad cause I'm not getting any rest today! Phone keeps ringing and had to run some money out to dk so she can go skating... This feels like the flu to me, freezing then sweating and shaking. I might take some benadryl just to sleep for a while. I JUST WANT SOME REST!!

I couldn't find this answer in the Whiners Anonymous Handbook aka WAH.

Canada

Ann,
The reason you couldn't find the answer in the handbook is because it's found in the revised (2009) edition. I don't know why but it's written in very fine print and was added onto the last page footnotes of Ch. 62.

( __emphasis mine__ )

Quote:

The content of WA members' sharing may vary for various reasons such as; lack of content or situations where not only is whining impossible but may also be illegal or otherwise not appreciated by others in the workplace/home/institutions; especially those who have no understanding of need or benefits gained from whining.

We must let those unfortunates who are incapable of whining: find their own way, in their own time and at their own pace; however and be that as it may: we have learned that all whines are valid in this program. These would include predicted whines, assumed whines, and anticipated whines.*

*All anticipated whines remain valid and may not negated regardless of whether the aforementioned whines are actualized. This concept is based on the fact that any whine, once expressed, loses no value to the fellowship whether it occurs or not. We are not perfect and our whines, though sincere and heartfelt, may not always be tangible, yet they remain beneficial to the individual and to others present. (taken from Concepts and Complaints of WA, Worldwide Organization. 2009. Concept 1)

freezing then sweating:

in a long long time.

scaredykat · 07-02-2009, 12:40 PM

I thought SR would be off by now. It's 2:30 EST.

This is how I feel today. Can't stand myself.

least · 07-02-2009, 01:39 PM

I'd tell you how bad my day has been but first, I don't want to hear it again, and second, it's not over yet... Suffice it to say I've been in the car most of the day and it wasn't by choice.

ONly thing I'm glad for is that I don't have a screaming baby to add to my troubles like pk does... She's having a rough day of it too, and the rougher her day gets, the rougher my day gets... if that makes any sense. Not much IS making sense today, that's for sure.

IO Storm · 07-02-2009, 03:51 PM

Everyone :ghug2:

Whine))))

Tummy trubble again! Sheesh. I am thin again...but my cholesterol is up a bit.

I made my fave cheesy eggs..and they gave me trouble.

Am I egg or cheese intolerant?

Is this why my cholesterol is up?

Is it my bi-weekly "ran over the flame" rib steak?

Oh no!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

And the worst..no fake butter on my popcorn at the movies!

(I know, I know...not a valid whine..but that's all I have to contribute)

IO Storm · 07-02-2009, 03:58 PM

:

Beans beans, the magical fruit

I ate a bunch in a 4th Party suit

The more I ate the better I felt

At KK's cool party
