I am bummed for you, Leshar. Darn!!!!

I wish we lived closer; I'd take you out for tea or ice cream or whatever your sweet heart desired.

You're sweet, Leigh. Acting is the one thing I have a passion for, and I'd have Been busy and with people had I got the role. I worry about my mood and being lonely with too much time on my hands. Thanks so much for your support. I'd have dealt with this by drinking in the past. I had a fleeting moment, not of thinking of drinking, but of, aw man, what's there to look forward to now? I have to work on this.

I like to have something to look forward to, also, even if it is way off in the distance.

Good evening all,

I'm sorry for your disappointment, Leshar. Hopefully there will be other auditions and parts you will get

Had a good day, AV was pretty quiet, Abby is getting her second front tooth so that makes 6 teeth for her now

Hope you are doing ok FABL. I know you were a little worried about your AV taking advantage of your day off today.

Hi to everyone else

Thank you Ladybug and Dee. I had a bit of a weep but I'm ok. I can't imagine the torment professional actors must have to go through!

Lol Leigh , you sounded just like my Dad
Beat that AV to a pulp.

I can always be guaranteed a smile on my face and warmth in my heart to start my day with you sweet darling people who although we have never met , I love each and every single one of you dearly .
Thanks for making my life that little bit sweeter today

Leshar honey , I'm so sorry you are bummed about not getting the part. Try again, you've dond it before you can do it again.
We all have great faith in your abilities sweetheart.
Back on the horse for you miss.
How is tiki going. Why don't you give him another pamper session, I loved that story & could just imagine him getting primped and preened & all proofed up with the hair drier, God bless that little bird

I wish I could reach out and give every one of you a big squeezy real human hug.
That's what I would do if I met any of you.

Shaun has taken Holly to work do I'm gonna chill and read some SR. for a bit.

I LOVE this place. It's saved my life.

Does anyone know how to save a link here as I would like to put some of my favourite poems together xx

Much love to you , my truly amazing , beautiful friends.
You are worth more than gold to me. Xox

Leshar,
Thats a tough business to not take something personally. You must have really thick skin or great coping skills. Thats why i couldnt do sales. Up and down roller coaster. I couldnt deal with the constant rejection.

I hope you find something else

Thanks, Snoozy. Tiki is great. I don't give him a shampoo and set too often, because it depletes the good oils in his skin. I'm thankful to have him, another heartbeat in my home.
I too love SR! Thanks so much to all of you. You've got me through some pretty bad times.

Hey, letigo, thanks. It was an amateur production. It's a hobby of mine. Hopefully I can try out next season if there's a part for someone my age. The plays for the rest of this season don't have any such parts.

I too am grateful for all of you, - your honesty, it grounds my thoughts and let's me know I'm not alone through the highs and lows.

My bumps at work have dissipated. Can you believe, I rode it out, said nothing and it paid off. Turns out one has left now due to health reasons, and the other was due to be moved into something else. Patience....boy has sobriety taught me patience.

Aww sweet darling.

Leshar, you know, hurt feelings aren't soemthing to be scared of. We are human, rejection hurts. I think drinking made me think every bad feeling was "wrong" and had to be soothed by drinking. I was crying the other day about something and it felt good, because that is what humans are built to do - express feeling, feel it - not numb it.

Thank you for sharing your vulnerabilities, but you are much stronger than you think. Keep looking at condos....if only to see what's out there, get across the market. Maybe you are meant to move to an area with more social opportunities?
