I'll be the one in the PINK HIGH HEELS with Princess Crown Buckles (and yes I do really have a pair of shoes like that!!!)
Oh come on in, and bring those pink high heels with you....they will match my bunny slippers (I wear them everywhere, ya know?)

"Waiter *she gestures* better make that two cheesecakes", we can never have enough when it comes to cheesecake.

In 40 minutes, DeVon is going to be getting her nails professionally done for the first time in her life, and the rest of the world can just carry on without her!

To Whom It May Concern:

This evening Gotahavfaith is going to focus on: ACCEPTING THE THINGS I CANNOT CHANGE.

Maybe tomorrow I can focus on having Courage and Wisdom.

That's huge and took me forever to really "accept". I figured I could change anyone, as long as they did it MY way. I've never been more mistaken, lol, and once I accepted, the rest came.

To whom it may concern...

Gotahavfaith is about to let go, you might want to get out of the way and make room for the new, improved Gota.

Yes, Ann, thank you for this thread. It brought a smile and warm fuzzies to my heart tonight.

I'm putting on my party hat (its lime green with bright pink boa feathers, dontcha know...very fetching)...and I'm gonna settle right in for some of that cheesecake you mentioned...

But first... as for my memo...

To whom it may concern:
Please be advised that Outonalimb is resigning her position as master of the universe effective immediately.
The pay was lousy, her minions uncooperative and incredibly ungrateful, and the hours were much too long.
She's accepted a position with a little start-up venture known simply as HER LIFE AND HEALTHY CHOICES. The responsibilities with this new job are fewer, the burdens lighter, and the benefit package is out of this world !!!

That was fun !
Great thread !!


Now...where's that cheesecake ???????????????????

To whom it may concern,

Cessy decided that she is going to start listening to her gut........... and she quit one of her jobs today, because it didn't 'feel right' to have to wear a skimpy tee shirt (as a uniform) at one of her bartending jobs.

To whom it may concern, I won't worry about the 'what if's' attached to my decisions-- I know that the universe will open a new door on everyone that I intentionaly shut-- because I listened to ME.

To whom it may concern, I will take my day off tomorrow (that was supposed to be work) (till I quit) and go play mini golf with my son.....

To whom it may concern, my instincts are going to start directing me............. And I know I will be o.k.

To whom it may concern, I will pray that I have peace-- today this is all I ask for.

Thanks Ann, for letting me know it's o.k. to decide what MY 'to whom it may concern' list entails.

Love,
Cessy

To Whom it may concern, thank you Ann for giving me the inspiration and strength to take my dog for a walk instead of taking codeine.

To Whom It May Concern:

Abundance is going to remember all of the chaos and sadness and distrust and insanity when she feels sad and is doubting moving forward without him.

Abundance is giving power to her integrity and self-worth.

To whom it may concern...

Faerie will be enjoying sunshine today instead of hanging out in the darkness.

And Abundance, Cessy and Limb will be joining Ann for a sail today, off to an abandoned lighthouse on a pretty island where we can shine our light so brightly, people will think it`s back in business.

Today Ann will not get drawn into drama...not even if they hold the Academy Awards right next door and offer her a statue. Sorry, Academy, this codie`s drama days are over.

Hugs to all of you for making this so much fun.

Keep smilin', keep shinin'
Knowin' you can always count on me, for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for

To Whom it May Concern,

Chino left the building yesterday and will remain gone until further notice. All attempts to contact Chino will continue to be futile as she is on sabbatical.

Welcome, Laura, it sounds like you are already on a good path for taking care of yourself, and keep trying those meetings...they saved my life, literally, and many here found the support just what they needed.

And Teach, I am glad the tests went well. It's hard not to worry but now that it's over, maybe treat yourself to a very special "All About Teach" day.

To whom it may concern...

Ann will be out enjoying the sunshine again today and playing in her garden. Please hold all calls and tell the cat where I am when he wakes up from his nap.

Hugs
