at a loss for words....
i am not very verbal today...just dont want to constantly post here about the same stuff. Dont want to post about the manipulating ex guitary player boyfriend who has my line of credit for his motorcycle. Dont want to complain about the ex husband, dont want to complain about work again...just looking forward to the day when I can come here and post that all is good , that i am in a functional relationship with someone i am sincerely in love with and am happy overall....that's all. till then i remain silent.

Diva...I find that oftentimes it is the day that I have nothing to say..that really says the most. It means that Sonny hasn't done something horrible...It means that I haven't gotten a call from the Mesquite Police Department...It means that my life is still intact.
I don't know about anybody else...but my non drama days..the ones that I DON'T write about...those are my best days. LOL.
Coming here and just saying hi...just checking in...wanted to let you all know I am still here....Nothing wrong with that in the least. Good to hear from you.

Diva -
I think that the functional relationship we should be looking for is the one with OURSELVES. The good relationship with someone else is the icing on the cake. Until we are comfortable and happy with ourselves it is almost impossible to find that with another. We need to learn to enjoy the small things in life first and build on them. Hope you will take the time to work on yourself and do something nice for you!
Hugs, Jo

I am throwing out a challenge to you.
First, re-read your post above. Then....don't post about guitar guy, don't post about ex, don't post about "next" dream guy.
But I challenge you to post three things about YOU.
1. I want to hear what you plan to do this week to be good to yourself and a commitment that you WILL do it. Anything at all, but something that is all about you.
2. I want to hear you tell me 5 nice things about yourself, even if it takes you hours to think of them. I don't even know you, and I can think of several, but I want to hear it from you.
3. I want you to post an affirmation for yourself. An example would be "I am Diva, a blessed child of God, worthy of love and respect". No fair using that one again.
I know you can do it and I know that you ARE a wonderful person. But for now, I want to hear it from you. There will be a prize upon completion. I promise.
You know I care, and you know I am asking with love in my heart,.
You go girl - I'll be watching.
Hugs
Ann
