  how do you handle them?

  i mean, sometimes they write things that are really hurtful!.

  do you just ignore them altogether?

  This is not a Board of 'support,' but a Board of 'discussion'

  HS....it is both. To capsulize the issue, why would someone pop in and be abusive to someone who is just asking for support? Why?

  There are many topic open for discussion....right?

  no matter how much you want to avoid it...crying is necessary sometimes.

  for me, i need help with it....too many distractions in my life.

  i almost have to plan crying....so for me music aides in releasing emotion, helps me just be me for an interval of time.

  it must be saturday night the highlight of my week was replacing my garbage disposal...it went out last week along with my refrigerator (replaced that last weekend a whole nother story) anyway poked my head under the sink and said "i can do that"...i like to think myself as mechanically inclined but after a week driving truck that is the last thing i wanted to do but the disposal cost me $118 and they wanted another $95 to install it...so i dove in and did pretty well untill it was time to lock the disposal ring into the setting...i tried and tried and tried and the mother ****** would not go on...i grabbed me a martini and said ok i'll finish tomorrow when it hit me i was trying to twist the damn thing the wrong way and as simple as that i did it...i am so proud of me.........

  I'm proud of you too! I have had so many plumbing mishaps this last year (no man around stuff).

  Anyway, live in an old house, so complicated plumbing.....the first time the kitchen sink stopped up....I fixed it! I was like a god to myself, so proud. Then a few weeks later it happened again. Thinking of course, I knew what I was doing, and went after the project with confidence. Well, didn't work this time....so what did I do???? Drained the water into a bucket and watered my plants, trees and bushes....for a month!!! Then my brother came to visit and announced to me that I was an idiot and fixed it.

  my humility comes in many different ways...

  So many of us are going through hard times. Does music help? Movies? Books? Exercise? (please say no) Food? Drink? Fresh air? Creative writing? Bird watching?

  please share

  My destination is the coast of North Carolina. My cousin has a place for both my parents ashes in the family plot. So this is about burying both my parents.

  I'll take off from Colorado Springs, Colorado....thinking about heading south into OK and TX then across the south headed east. Don't know how far south to go....so I need to hear from you on the south route

  Then on the way back I'll go the north route...just don't know how far north to go....so I need to hear from you on the north route.

  I will only have two weeks.

  Would love to meet as many of you as possible, and this time I am really going to do it!

  by flipper in

  2. friends

  well, it happened.

  because of not getting virtually zero rain in northern california in march, april and may - the fire conditions up here are tinderbox dry as if it were already in august in late summer !

  the grasses in the foothills and manzanita bushes have been just itching to explode in flames !

  So sorry flipper....fires are so devastating. I was just in Durango the other day and there was a fire nearby that in a few hours filled the town with smoke so much you couldn't see in front of you.

  I was living in Glenwood Springs, Colorado when the Storm King Mountain fire happened in 1995...14 firefighters died....I hate fires.

  Thinking of your and your family today

  "Outing" yourself

  by sooner7nc in

  2. experiences

  this question may be stupid, and if so, let the flaming begin.

  has anyone ever used this website as the vehicle to "out" themselves from the wt?

  would the mods allow this to happen, or would they quash the attempt as soon as it started.

  I sincerely worry about my ability to control my temper.

  I personally am drafting a DA letter....it helps with the emotions, and is a more direct and honest route to outing....just my 2 cents
