One Step at a Time - April 2013

Hi all,
Now i am worried about mama also, I do hope she's ok.
Nurdl you are awesome, keep up the good work.
Every one else you guys are the best, I went to my therapist yesterday for the 1st time in a long time and had a great conversation with her and she was very proud of me and my work.
Se had a concern now that I am more home and saw a need for me to get out more and meet people here where I live. So I went on a site to meet people and will do my first on Friday at 6 where a bunch of people get together and walk and talk and look at historical places in my town. So my first step is taken in getting out and meeting people.
Thank you all,
FT

That sounds lovely FT. I'm glad you're getting to meet local people.

Now I'm worried too. Mama - are you there honey?

Mama must be down and out. I'd pm her, but don't want to make her feel she has to respond. Will check in the morn.

FT, join the history people. You talked about obsessed (like me)! Those people are interesting, and that's beyond history. They know lots about everything-- above normal intelligence, from my experience. I try to keep my mouth shut when I'm around them.

nurdl, so glad to hear from you! Whew. You evidently have a plan. Your drink of choice for the celebration sounds mahvelous.

WOW......I FEEL SO LOVED!!
Your mama is sick as a little dog, started with the headache, turned into throwing up and dry heaving, and now I am racing the bathroom....I have had to change my sheets twice. Not trying to be gross, but this is BAD stuff......I have had nothing but Gatorade for two days.....tried to eat a little roast chicken last night but it made me turn green.
I thought about ya'll, but I honestly didn't have the energy to log on.
And my selfish 21 year old know i was in here dying and went to "hang out" with some friends. I was in desperate need of Pepto, but he didn't care. It really hurt my feelings.
I touches me that ya'll worried.....K9 has my number, so does Juja and Nora.
Where in the heck is Nora??
anyway...if I had Depends I would be wearing them....
I love you all!!!
and i will be home today too..... several conference calls, but for once, my give a damn is broken and I am gonna stay in bed all day...

FT...good luck with the job friend!
Did you say you went to counseling?
I am asking, coz think I am going to use some of my benefits and go for a "tune up"
Irritability, stress, AL, you name it.....it can't hurt. I went once years ago, and found it to be very beneficial
I want to go back to sleep, but I have a 9:30 conf. call that I promised I wouldn't miss.
Time to go hunt for a diaper...................................

Good morning mama,
Yes I did and I have been doing this for a while and during this past weekend something told me I was due an adjustment, I have been doing well with the not drinking and smoking, sorting out negative people in my life (pissing some off but I matter 1st) realizing my son is more independent and spending less time as my "little" boy. I felt this cloud approach and before I fell I decided to go and have a chat with her, it was a good move and I am going back next week to continue what we talked about.
Working from home and having limited people interaction is not a good thing for extended times so that is why i signed up for this web site to get our and meet people. She told me that I need to be careful with too much alone time at home as that can and most probably will lead me to depression before I know it.
XXOO

Gosh, Mama, that sounds awful! Is it it going around in FL? I hope you're over the hump, and will feel much better soon. Stay.in.bed. :l

FT and Mama, I need a tune-up, too. I'll put my therapist on my to-do list.

Planned on attending to details today that I had to let slide because I was away last weekend, but will be taking my father for hearing aid adjustments instead. You cannot imagine how I dread this. He told me yesterday that he'd thought about having me mow his yard (2 acres) but decided I had too many other things to do. WTF? The man is a narcissist, and that's why I dread being with him today.

[mama bear]

One Step at a Time - April 2013

he wants YOU to mow his yard?? Isn't there a neoghbor boy that can do that?? Or your hubs??
Yes FT...isolating is bad....I do it too. I did it for awhile in an effort to stay AF, but now I just like the peace and quiet of it......
I'll let ya'll know what ends of happening.....
my cat has climbed on my laptop keyboard for the sixth or seventh time....silly thing....I guess it's warm

MAMA!!! So glad you're back, but boy that bubble gut sounds horrible!!! Maybe you should wrap a few towels around your...um...lower parts. Stay hydrated!!! Your 21 year old is TYPICAL unfortunately. I could lay unconcious in the hallway and my nephew would step over me, maybe kick me to the side if he needed to get by. :H

FT - That's great that you've joined a group! I have found that I enjoy meeting new people at the gym, in the sauna. I've had quite a few interesting conversations, then when I show up the next day it's kinda nice to feel like you know people. Of course I am surrounded by people all day at work, so if everyone in the sauna is sitting quietly, that's fine by me too! Good luck on your job...I am applying for a new one too! I just know we'll both get what we want!

Nora - WHERE ARE YOU?? :h:h

Hi Juja, Sun, BHOG, Fly and everyone else...happy Thursday!

Well now BHOG has gone missing! Can you people please stop doing this to me??

I'm sure he's fine and just putting the finishing touches on his tassle covered chaps.
