we're awaiting the arrival of kwintestal and heart2heart as they make their long trek back home.
they'll be having dinner with us tonight.. in a couple of hours' time... and i know their computer access has been almost non-existant over the last several days.... so how about sending them a virtual hug and a big hello, which i will print out for them before they set out on their journey again!.
let's make it a nice big thread!

The entertainment factor is high.
Mostly I post because I would have loved the support when I was first out. Maybe I can help someone else.

it's been about two months since i've drank coffee, i quit cold turkey don't ask why........just wanted to say i didn't miss it at all and now i wonder how i ever drank this stuff in the first place!.
back to cranberry juice in the am for me!.
anyone else ever give up something and wonder later how or why they ever drank, ate or smoked it in the first place?.
Finally free ~ I agree with Tal, you need more good fat in your diet. Olive oil is great and the calories in what you will use aren't very much. The trade off is that the fat will keep you fuller for longer and satisfy your hunger faster. This way you eat less empty calories.

I tried to give up coffee and failed miserably.
I love it sooooooooo much. The smell, the heat of the cup in my hands mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
I try to keep it to only 2 large a day, my doctor is worried about my bones.

i was at work yesterday when i got a call on my mobile phone.
my mothers ringer is darth vader's march.
the pit of my stomach ached.
My mothers ringer is Darth Vader's march. The pit of my stomach ached. Why is she calling me?
That is too funny. This music goes thru my head everytime my mother calls me as well. I usually let it go to the machine so I have a few minutes to figure out what she wants and "mentally prepare myself"
I would take your mom's calls and try to build a relationship outside the rigidity of the WTS rules. My mother calls about every 2 months, just to fill me in on what has been happening with the family. When I was first D'efd years ago the calls were to encourage me to return but that thankfully has stopped, now me returning is never brought up at all. I've had her call on my birthday just to reminise (sp?) and see how I was doing.
Ultimately this is your decision to make and it needs to be right for you. If getting surprise calls are too much for you to handle now emotionally, take the initiative to call her on your terms when you are ready.

well, yesterday evening was a little too emotional for my liking... .
i got home to find an envelope in my mailbox from my mom and dad... (i was df'ed 4 years ago and haven't spoken to them since) .
my sister's wedding announcement...she got married earlier this month.
Let us know how it goes.

Krystal ~ If your Grandmother is still in the hospital, write her a loving message on a card. If you are nervous about not being let in the room to see her get a sympathetic nurse to agree to read the card to her. Send flowers with a big " much love from Krystal" tag attached.
I was invited to my younger sister's wedding, when I said I would be happy to attend they quickly inforned me that I wasn't welcome. So WTF!? why send me an invite?
Dams
got home sat.
and am still in quite a bit of pain...this seems much worse than my knee replacement last year...as i had a scope done on the left only a few weeks ago; so it's still rather sore.
but my son has generously loaned me the use of his notebook for a little while and so i was finally able to read up on my e-mails and cruise my favorite web-site...this one!
**bump**
C'mon I don't want to eat all the brownies myself!

So sorry Krystal.
It hurts to be an afterthought to family affairs.
Not only that but they also wrote a short letter telling me that my grandmother was not able to make the wedding because she was in the hospital. Apparently she has been in and out of the hospital for the last couple of months and her condition is getting worse... I haven't seen her since I moved out of home 4 years ago. I fear the next time I see her will be at her funeral.
This is my biggest fear as well. Hang in there it gets a little better with time.

ok, since i missed out on developing when i was 14-18, i'm gonna need help with girls, friends, keeping them, and just having fun.
recap for the past week:
one day i hung out a with this dude from fish camp.
So happy times are ahead!
Most likely a lot of people around you are trying to scope everybody out as well. Give it a few weeks until the newness of school has worn off for them and you will find that things will start to happen for you.
