I say yes, you say no, OR People are Strange

Otter, I have already begun amassing your hurricane list. Thanks. Have a great off the grid time and eat many rainbow trout. Yum.

Oh, Bren, please be rude. 

Like so many others, it is impossible to explain, or who would want to, why someone who spent so much effort attacking both the women who often post on this thread, and the organization, BCO, which OBVIOUSLY, all of us appreciate - would continue to post on this thread.

Again, I guess she's driven everyone else away from the threads she starts, and can't create sock puppets to talk to - but WHY, Rosemary?  Can you explain it?  How about you, Athena???? White Rabbit, you have any ideas? What will it take to make her GO AWAY!  GO AWAY!

Any ideas what it will take to make her go away????  Really - even the moderators must be laughing at her posting on this thread  -

Well, I'd rather face the hurricane in the REAL world, than the hypocrisy I'm seeing here. Bye!

Hi Rabbit .. Nope .. only got some wind today.  I know lots are suffering with huge amounts of rain, but I wish we could have gotten some it.  It's still so dry, even after the storm we had the other day.

hugs,

Bren

How about using the "ignore" button? 

Honestly, reacting the way you are, Sunflowers, is exactly what she wants you to do. I'm not saying your feelings aren't valid, because I feel much the same way, but you are giving her exactly what she wants.

Your head ... your problem.  Obviously your problem if the only thing you can see in a group of good friends having a great time is what they are wearing.  IMHO

ETA ... Mary you are probably right.  But maybe she just really doesn't get it??  OK maybe not.  Phasers on stun. 

I think you all looked great!

I am sorry I missed it.

Please let HL know that I am thinking of her...

Sending all the good vibes I can muster up to Libby!  We miss you bunches! 

Blue, I was thinking exactly the same thing...

Hugs to HL -- I think you will feel a little better every day -- probably hard for you, of all people, to "take it easy" -- but it's right to take it easy right now.

Blue -- glad you had a good time -- hope you feel less tired tomorrow.

Hope everyone is safe -- I'm back in the city (where I was in the country is also in the storm's path, and they always lose power during any storm -- so probably a worse place to be -- certainly for me, because I'm used to managing storms and blackouts in the city, not so much in the country!).

Hi, Ann - we heard you were north of NYC!  Stay Safe.  Thanks again for the picture - that someone  seems to be delusional enough in thinking she was, is, or could ever be, a part of....

Off to watch the rain - it's getting very REAL now - and this is just the beginning.  Wish I could describe the precautions everyone in this small town has made - and it may be hard for anyone who's never lived in a small, rural community, to imagine this one - someone has set up a generator FOR ME - so I won't be without water, a few lights, and my fridge.  I'm blessed, really.  Scared now, honestly, but will be sunny, so we're told, by tomorrow afternoon.

Special good vibes to HL.  Hope she's soon feeling well enough to be a wee bit active. 

Agree with you Rosemary - and it, beauty and class, start from within -and it SHINES in that picture.

Blue - hope you're feeling stronger tomorrow - I'll be thinking of all of you - but probably not online, Verizon ( DSL) will definitely go the way of "electricity" by tomorrow!!!

SWEET DREAMS.  Stay safe, warm, and as dry as possible.

Hi, Athena,

how delusional, for her to think she could EVER be a part of that friendship, really delusional.  Amazed a person who so attacks this thread, this site, would even imagine herself as being welcome, or be included in any way.  Delusional.  Almost scarey - like tryiing to pretend she didn't know about the review site.   "Oh, innocence itself, why isn't this thread on the active list."

Does anyone remember the expression, "someone isn't playing with a full deck?" we used to use that years ago - wonder how it's described now....

MARY, you're right - ignore, ignore, ignore - ;-)))))

Ann - really -I feel renewed since leaving DC.  All my orignal good feelings about people, have been reborn since I arrived here, in this wee little town, not knowing ANYBODY 5 years ago.  Then, to top it off, being diagnosed with bc a few months later - and literally, having women, one by one, becoming friends, rallying around, "organizing" my rides to hospital, then to chemotherapy in BOSTON for Gawd's sake - 2 1/2 hours each way - so I could sleep in my own bed each night.  We used my car, I can laugh now, but I was terrified ( embarrassed???) at the possibility of getting sick in someone else's car.  Rode the 5 hours with my little bucket in my lap ;-)))  Ah, the old days.

Well, now - it's even BETTER.  Really, a neighbor not only loaning me the generator, but filing it with gas - and not letting me fill it.  I CAN DO IT.  "Yes, but it can't be too hot when you fill it."  Etc.

Oh, my, what a wonderful way to learn what someone wanted me to learn years ago:  HELP is not a four letter word.  Thanks for all good wishes - off to sweet dreams - and hope I can make it to the genral store in town, where they buy the Sunday New York Times for a lot of us, cuz it isn't delivered here!  Did I mention no cell phone service, no cable tv - I LOVE IT HERE!  ;-))))

I work on an elementary school playground, and sometimes kids have no social skills yet desperately want to be part of a group. They will annoy and harrass and insult the kids they really want to be with because they don't know of any other way to get attention. 

Maybe that's what we're dealing with here.
