Maturity is the ability to do a job whether or not you are supervised, to carry money without spending it, and to bear an injustice without wanting to get even.

Hey Deborah!
Please forgive me if I insulted you with my post. It was definitely not my intention at all. I truly was just trying to lighten the situation with a lil' bit of humor. I am not sure where YOU insulted ANYONE or demeaned them. I never thought that for a moment. I join in on the same wave length that this place is just not the same with all the flame wars lately, but I felt a need to encourage someone here if they felt attacked. I am sorry if you felt it was directed towards your comments. NOT AT ALL! (BTW, I miss HB, Donna & Trevor too.) Sorry if we got a lil' silly and carried away. Just trying to have FUN!

I have been reading and shaking my head for almost 2 days. You ladies can be plain goofy sometimes and I mean that in a good way.
LOL, Don't forget a moment of silence for the horse. Gotta have another moment next year, same time, same place.
Later ladies, gotta cook supper.

RE: Hey Deborah!
Deb,
Boy was I ever confused reading your post to me. No, this was not meant for you, but for "fitnessGoddess" I think this is her name. Anyway, not to worry. Boy, Deb I have learned some valuable lessons this week. I hope Cathe missed all this. I would hate to worry her! dmd

Hey DMD!
Oh boy, this sure is a mess eh? My post was NOT to you but to Deborah(Fitness Goddess). Sorry for the confusion. I am just beside myself with all that is going on here. Wish we could all just get back to ourselves and remember how lucky we are to have this place. It is people like you that keep me coming back and I am most certain it will be back to normal soon. Let's all just hang in there a while longer.

RE: Hey DMD!
We are, Debbie! The warm and fuzzies are beginning to fly. Again. It always comes back around. You set the gold standard for kindness becasue your heart is made of gold. It's okay to apologize for hurting someone, even if it was unintentional if that's what you're inclined to do. Fitgoddesses wise and reasonable words made me realize I had misunderstood intentions and they were then misunderstood. It's crazy but I'm thankful we get to try again. I love you! http://www.handykult.de/plaudersmilies.de//pftroest.gif

Thanks Bobbi and DMD!
(Deb, sorry to use your intials but want you to know I mean YOU! Ha!) Thanks you guys!I'm not sure why I am even letting all this "stuff" bother me. Could it be because we have to move out of our house in two weeks time sooo the buyer gets her wishes! YEP, I THINK SOOO! Talk about stressed. Now, you ask...why am I sitting here on this machine then??? http://clicksmilies.com/s0105/grinser/grinning-smiley-024.gif[/img] JUST because my day would NOT be complete without my Cathe fix and all my buds here. Thanks everyone. We really do have a great place here to come and all will be well. A big hug to you all out there. Count our blessings not our worries!

RE: Hey DMD!
Okay, sniff-snort. I too am thankful for a chance to be understood. I think there are times when confrontation can be beautiful and constructive. Boy is it tricky though and takes such skill. I am working on these allot right now. What a relief to know that people "see" you as you are. I "see" you too Bobbi. Love and cute huggle-buggle yellow smilies back at ya!

RE: Hey DMD!
Debbie turned me on to those guys. http://www.plaudersmilies.com They can express my thoughts when words fail me. (I don't think there's one with it's tongue in it's cheek.) There's one with a little guy typing at a computer with manic intensity. I used him for my obsessive posting days. I was worse once. My husband hasn't looked at me on the forums and said, "Get a life.", recently, so I am not there yet.
Life is not all sunshine and lollipops, DMD, and sometimes we get bothered and we speak out. Responses may be mad, sad, bad but always get glad. It seems perfectly normal to me. Did you know I have 9 sisters? This is chicken feed compared to some of the stuff we have gotten into over the years. Yet, we are pretty close to one another and never stay mad. Not one of us can go very long not speaking. We have big mouths. I am good for less than a day and I love making up. I don't mind saying I am sorry. We are too different to agree on everything and disagreeing is a tricky business. The important thing is getting over it and getting on with it. I am loving the way we are adapting around here. The three things and why I'm staying and why I'm leaving threads are clearing the air. And we are all learning what it takes to peacefully co-exist. And no one can accuse us of being boring. Drama!

RE: Hey DMD!
Ay dios mio de mi vida! Nine sisters. I'm the only sister in my family and I can barely stand myself. Bobeeeee, there was a time when this relataional stuff would have put me over the edge.I simply didn't have the emotional threashold for it. I have since learned that people need each other ( insert Barbara Streisand' singin People...you want drama?)...I need people, I need to connect with those who share common interests etc. This is a fine place to do so. I have been around here for more than 5yrs. and I have never had the courage or confidence to say what I really feel. I read posts from you, DebH, A-jock, Honeybunch, magombo, Donna ( I miss her too) and so many others and I am blown away by the varigation of spirit and wit. Man, there are some strong woman around here. I dig that. I need to hear these your thoughts and musings because they are like my own.
I see in you Bobbi that you understand that pride and love cannot exsist in the same heart. I have lived with a wad of pride in my throat and have nearly suffocated from the fear of letting it go...If I can learn that single lesson well then I think I have a chance at freedom.
Okay, my fingers hurt. I can't type for frijoles. I hunt and peck. Got it all out though...It was nice chatting with you, albeit one sided. dmd ( Debbie Marie Dailey, the only sister I have)

Getting deep....
Wow, DMD, that's beautiful, that love and pride cannot exist in the same heart. I like that. I think it must be true if that heart longs for happiness and contentment, having known sorrow and strife. Peaceful co-existances seems impossible, at any rate. I have struggled with addiction, depression and freedom never came until I was humbled. Luckily, my big crazy family are very good at unconditional love and never gave up on me. I have the most amazing mother. I can be quite full of myself but the ensuing mess usually results in eating humble pie and I am learning to recognize when that's a result of my own stupidity, be it pride or attatchment. Still learning that. I am getting better at recognizing the red flags and I hope I'll always forgive because I have needed forgiving and gotten it. I am sappy and sentimental most of the time but I have a cynical side. I am capable of extraordianry light-heartedness but I can go down, down, down. And you might guess which I prefer but I have to say the dark side is the one that teaches you to appreciate the light. My life is a mircle, DMD. I am so blessed. It's far from perfect. I have some pretty heavy stuff to deal with even now, but I AM happy and that's a gift that keeps on giving, keeps me from giving up. Remember, I was not given up upon so I always go for happy, whatever life throws out there. It may take adjustments, it DOES take adjustments and I may have to reach but I am learning to surrender to the moment. I take nothing too personally for longer than I have to and I keep hoping it will all work out in the end if I do my part. The shortest distance between two hearts is a smile. I smile a lot. The hijinks we've been up to has been wonderful for me and helped me with my perspective when I just can't get enough sleep to feel like me. Since the really deep depression I had not so long ago, I am not as easy breezy as I used to be. I used to sing all day long. I don't much anymore. I used to laugh more and cry less unless some really sad, sappy movie was on. But I am so much closer than I was even a few months ago. She's in there and I am dragging her butt back out! But I am getting too serious. I have enjoyed this one-sided chat as well and maybe more since I am a darned good typer!
