tangandchris - I always believed I was the least Godly person around. I thought everyone in my church was a better Christian than I was, because they had been doing it longer and better than I had. I even thought I didn't know how to pray correctly!
Then a very dear friend taught me that there is only one kind of "right" prayer.... and that's whatever is between you and God. It can be a simple conversation, a polite request, a desperate plea, an angry question, or of all of that... as long as you know He hears every word you say, and even if you can't find the words, He hears you anyway.
I was always uncomfortable praying in front of other people. Now I just close my eyes and shut the world out, and dial God on His personal, direct-line cell phone. He always answers. It's just a conversation, and as long as I am respectful enough to SHUT UP AND LISTEN, I always get an answer.
It may not be the answer I wanted or expected, but He always answers.
And all those perfect Godly people out there? Not one of them is. They are each a work in progress. All of us are.
You and this lady don't have to become BFFs overnight, or ever. You are Sisters in Christ. That's enough of a relationship to start.
Here's what I think: if you will reach out to her, YOU will be blessing HER. Why deprive her of that? And who knows what else good can come of it?
Oh well.... that's MY ramble for today....

Yeah, Chevy, I had a bag of zithromycin at the ER, then a Zpack, then a run of Avelox, none of which helped. I've used Adair in the past, but this is different from anything I've ever experienced, and it's got the docs stumped. My nurse friend wonders if I might be having a thickening of the lining of the lungs from some unknown cause. No pred, but of course I've had three days of dexamethasone for chemo. It will be interesting to hear what the pulmonologist reports.
-
Chevy-I have a real issue with thinking I'm less than....40 years old and still feel like a little girl in world of grown women. I'm getting better and stronger....BC has helped me with that if you can believe it.Blessings-I know you are right
On every count....now my heart is another thing. I'm getting there. 
((hugs))

Tang.... I used to feel intimidated by a lot of people.... I know it was in my own mind, but I used to be the same way....! From the time I was a little un-happy girl, I felt like I was just surviving... And my world around me was filled with mad, un-happy people. So you just grow up the best you can, but you carry those feelings all through life. And you don't know any different.
But someday, you will look back, and see how far you have come.... You might not be the prettiest one on the block, or the smartest one in your class, but you are a valuable person, doing so much better than a LOT of women! That used to be me.... But by having different friends, by going through a lot of stuff life throws at you, you just jump the hurdles, and come out better than you were before. Honest! I feel better now, than I did when I was 40, 50 or even 60! I mean mentally.... Not so much my body, but that's just how life goes.......
You are only 40? You have to make something fun with each day.... You are very young.... and have a lot to learn about people.... Just remember you are just as good as the person you admire.... They probably admire YOU!
So sometimes you can feel funny, or sad, or even bitchy.... but that's okay.... We get to feel how-ever we want to.... But being happy with ourselves is the most important thing.

Sas, your voice mail is full on your cell.

Hi, Owlettes!
sas-schatzi, you've blocked me, but maybe will unblock long enough to read this public post.
I haven't public posted on this thread since July 3rd, but off and on lurk, not daily.

Spookie it's okay, it still registered you call. Now I'm on your voice mail.
Tang, Blessings and Chevy said it OH SO GOOD. Now as Blessings says....Listen in a peaceful pretty place.
Had a wonderfully Ativan induced nap Just delightful. All toasty, Windows open 81*.
Now for the DBF scandal details. OH gossip. He lost his job last Jan. I take him in. Got him righteous with his drivers license in order to get back to work. Sell him the car b/c I foolishly thought a lawyer could right an injustice. Feed him , clothed him, cut is hair, bought tools.Taught him human skills.
The week he gets a job he starts talking moving out. He wanted space. Isn't that sweet. Space. I did tell him at that moment, I did feel used. All year long , really I hadn't felt used, but that made me feel used. Sunday, he knew there would be a late pot roast dinner. I called him and said it would be out of the oven at 6. At 8 I call and he says "Just a little bit longer Baby". "No problem, just leave enough time to pack". "AW, honey no, now don't do that. "
So, he's out. We are seeing each other, but what happens next my sweetie's, will be in the next installment. Thursday is a real crunch day. He owes me money. Thursday is pay day.

Hi Teka! Come back! Miss you!

This is a safe haven. No nastiness, bullying, or such allowed. I would like to keep the kind fabric of this thread intact.

Well, I may be a lurker, but my @$$hole is very competent, thank you.
Teka!!!! So good to see you here!!!
Miss Sassypants - sadly, your story is NOT uncommon. Sending you massive huggage.
-
-
Is something going on between sassy and Teka?? I'm confused!Good to see you teka, I've never seen a post of yours with so many words lol.
I'm restless tonight, not sure why. Too late to take anything really because if I do now I'll be dragging a all day tomorrow.
Chevy, thanks for the wise words ((hugs))
-
HELLO, HELLO !
I have been MIA for a short while. Sweetest Susan sent me a PM. Several times I tried to post, but I would forget who did what, and I wanted to talk to everyone....lol...impossible !
Teka, yah, we have not seen you for months...I have missed your posts, short & Sometimes a weather update. I have no idea what you are referring too now. But we will get Chevy & Cami on the case, they will get to the bottom of this unfortunate circumstance. Stalkers.....arrrgggg, sorry someone is being a bully.
Mags, how are you feeling? That last chemo is hard. I could not move, I was so tired.
Sas, This sounds stressful.....hope it works out...
2ndtimer, hang in there....
Hootie Hoo Patty....are you & your DS over the virus?
I'd better close, low battery. I had the Zometa infusion on Friday. Tired, achy. Night sweats, yuk!
Found the charger...lol...IPAD plugged in. I wanted to let you all know that Kristine ( F.BlueBird ) passed 3 months ago today. I think of her often, something will remind me of her, generally when I am outside, or on the golf course.
-
Tandarang, I am confused also.....that's ok. Hope you get some sleep. I might of missed it, did you do the 5K or the county fair? Or stay home & rest ?
-
Blessings, you're on a roll!
Tang, I feel for you. Reliving the past year in your mind? Wondering how different life was a year ago before BC? Sometimes I think it only adds to our frustration when we have daughters, especially young ones. If that's the case, try to let that go.
Teka, good to see you.
Sassy, sending you hugs from across the country. When one of the family hurts, others do too.
Trying to catch up, that's mission impossible.
Thanks for all the love, good thoughts, hugs, prayers and support. I feel them
-
OMG this is really Mission Impossible trying to catch up
Blessings good post.
Tang really do whatever u feel comfortable with, u don't have to compare with anyone, u are u and u'r so sweet, what's to compare?
Sas I hope u get this whole thing that I really don't understand under control so many complications, didn't realize all that was going on. Didn't u'r DBF do this before too? I kind of remember him wanting to move out another time but he comes back, maybe not because he needs u but because he wants to, he might just want to feel independent cuz men are like that.
Chevy right when I think u'r making a lot of sense u go off the board and I don't understand a word of what u'r talking about and one big SE is my spelling I'm sticking to that story. And cancer at bay means it's keeping quiet, it's afraid of me now, just every SE imaginable so I'm happy but miserable with how I feel. LOL
OK I need to rest now--it's like 6am ad I'm tired now--I've been up since 3am--no reason just because.
I hope everyone has a good day.
-
Oh good! Now I think we are getting back to normal! Ha! I think that is
an oxy-moron.... or what IS that I mean!Spookie that's funny, the only way you can talk to Sassy is on HERE! Her
voice mail is FULL? Ha! Oh damn! that just reminded me to take the land-line
out of the micro-wave!See, with all the political phone calls, I just turn my phone on, set it in
the microwave, and take it out in the morning.All that political stuff is a PITA!!! I put it in there before I go to
bed.... around 7! Ha, ha!TEKA!!!!!!!!!!!! Hey gal! Long time no see! About time you get back on
here! We ain't blockin' no-one! So just come back and post... I WONDERED why
you only put little faces on sometimes.... Anyway, good to SEE you!Sass, I think this has been going on every once in awhile, right? It's
like a relationship on quick-sand....Next time he says "Ah honey, don't do that".... Say "Ah honey, my a$$, and
don't let the door hit you IN that a$$ on your way out!" Period.... Exclamation
point! You don't NEED that Sass....When men think they can get away with something, they will... Either you
are first in his life, or out of it.You know, you can still be friends, but not LIVE with the guy... DD here
in Denver has this arrangement also... She fell in love with HIM, but later on
he dumped her.... in high-school.Broke her heart!
Met him again about 5 years ago, in her store! Well hell, we
can just pick up right where we left off, right?It doesn't work that way.... Your heart is nothing to mess around with...
Your brain will soon take over, and slap that thing right back into place.Soon, you are all back to normal, and can SEE what is going on in your
little heart, and reel it back into some state of normalcy .... And that
hot-N-heavy romance just smolders, and then slowly goes by the way of the
road-side... because you are now in control of your senses.They are still good friends, and see each other about once a month.... He
helps her out, by doing things in her house, like moving furniture, and hanging
pictures, and they DO have fun together! So that's all that matters. But they
were not meant for each other.Okay, now that I've got YOU straightened out, what NEXT is on the
agenda?Blessings... Hah! You make me laugh!
Tang-a-lang-a-ting-tong.... We HEAR nothing, we SEE nothing, and we SPEAK
nothing....sometimes..... Other times we are all over this like fleas on a
dog. Let's just stay confused......HiHo! Morning kid! Okay..... Chevy and Cammi have a mission.... We'll
never figure it out, but we are ON it!2222222222222nd! You know what I should do? Since you are all my friends,
I should make you into a scrap-book, with your pictures, and something about all
of you, and then when I talk to you all, I will remember all of this! How IS
your Daughter 222222? Miss you!Oh Cammi.... our services are needed. We are like Bat-man and Robin! You
be Robin.... I'm older, so therefore... so okay.It's Mission Impossible? Okay, I'll go with that... what are we doing?
Oh so now, you are going to tell us about men? Well yes, with all that
experience and all.... we should listen maybe.... and then again.....But little honey, if you spelled, or typed everything RIGHT, then what
would I talk about? So don't go correctin' nothin'.... okay?'You have to get to feelin' better, before we can go out carousing! You
have to be in top shape to hang with me... It's so lonely out there at
night.... in the heat of the night, under that lamp-post, waiting for you!Once in awhile a passer-by, but most of the time, it's just me, that pole,
and a bottle of Jack. -
-
Chevy OMD how do you find those pics. Yes, getting Cami back in the pole of things would be good. Missing her parties is a big deal.Hey teka , the asshole reference has been wiped out ---even this response.
-

I saw this yesterday when I left DDs. They are wild in her neighborhood. Taken in my car, on my phone
-
Sassy, you are saying "bad-words"..... Now you KNOW how much trubble we get into for saying those things.... I remember one time I wrote a bad-word on a piece of paper, and the teacher saw me hide it.... (The other kids dared me to!) And she yanked it out of my hands, and I was mortified for life!
Not saying that I don't use them now, but I always remember that mean old lady when I use an inappropriate word! SOME are called for, and we need to use them to knock sense into some peoples heads, but SOME will get us into Trubble!!!! Capitol T.
-
-
Sorry I haven't been posting much, just a bit busy here and I've gots things on my mind that I'm trying to sort through.
-
I'm pretty sure I know who Sas means. I left a few threads I really liked because of them. TEKA would know who too. They aren't on this thread.
Let it be, just carry on ourselves, don't stir up trubble and emotions.
-
Yep. I've had that experience on other baords I belonged to. Made me leave because of it.
My motto is: Don't start no trouble, won't be no trouble!
-
okey dokes, I'll wipe them out. -
*Good Morning Owlettes*
