Ok good! I'm glad I'm in good company at least!

Another good company commitment shy person.

Thanks for chiming in ladies- I have actually been feeling bad about it all day.

I'm pretty gun shy these days, too, after the former flame. For now, I'm going to concentrate on myself. Tomorrow, I see my shrink for the first time; I'm glad to have the opportunity to grow and gain greater comfort with my life.

In the meantime, smoothies are nice. Most nights this week, I've created some concoction with kale and fruit. Decided a little treat would be fun so tonight was yogurt, coconut milk, peanut butter, banana and cocoa. Venny's Smoothie Bar ... yum yum.

See you on the next thread, dear people.

Too tired to write much.

I'm waiting for dinner. It's a good one, gyoza, spicy tuna roll, salad with ginger dressing and broiled yellowtail collar. I'll snarf and crash.

I loved catching up with y'all, per usual!

I haven't mentioned it, but my medicine for Crohn's is slowly starting to control the inflammation. Things are going much better and less painful in the bathroom, and I can eat a little fiber without too much fear. It's good stuff. It's nice to have the terror of a full flare subside.

Xoxo

Hi, guys.

I am having a session with my therapist today and going to tell her about recent events concerning banks, etc. I hope she will give me a good line of strategy to keep my psychological cool during all this.

I seem to miss a lot here - Jen and a bank robber?

Ok, see you all.

Hi!
MB- I like the avatar too- and the bank robber is one of my pen pals- my latest ridiculous romance ha

So the weirdest thing happened tonight- I actually didn't procrastinate and I completed everything so I can sleep in tomorrow!
I don't even know who I am.
Actually the truth is that I felt guilty about the bank robber so I was staying busy to not think about it.

So nice to be at home in bed though

Thanks, guys.

I felt like it's time for a new avatar - I need the Universe on my side)

Jenn - I don't know who I am either. And I tend to believe it's not such a bad thing after all - it pushes me to challenge perception of what who I thought I was based on layers of pleasing others and acting up their expectations which accumulated over the time. That's why I both hate and, in some secret way, like times of crisis - the hold that charge which is able to crack this BS shell apart.

Sleep tight, Jen.

Have a great day, Sao.
