  Hello CoCo

  Check out costco/sams club. I had a percription that was over 80.00 at rite aid, costco 12.00.

  You can call their pharm and get the price before driving out there.

  You do not need to be a member either. Just walk right to the phamacy , no problems.

  [you can buy wine,etc. there with out a card too. but they give you an escort]

  I've heard some cautionary tales on tv [60 mon. or 20/20, I forgot] about online phamacies. From counterfiet to non effective drugs from China.

  Be careful.

  Hope you are feeling your ol' self soon.

  Did you ever shun someone close? How did you feel?

  how does a jw feel when he "has" to shun someone he likes/loves?.

  during the time i was in, i shunned people.

  but as i didn't like them, it was no problem.. but now, i'm trying to understand how my family might really feel.. (i presume here, of course, that they do "like/love me".).

  I had a a sibling DFed. I kept in contact with 'them' over the phone.

  Someone else in the family found out, and told the elders. This kept 'them' from being reinstated an extra 6 months.

  Ouch! I was told it was all my fault by family memeber.

  I followed the rules in this situation after that.

  Later in life it came up with my closest friend. I was somewhat inactive by then. Our friendship didnt change, other than I hid it.

  She had no plans on coming back. But I didnt want to get axed over it.

  It's sad what the shunning policy makes us feel obligated to do.

  there are many new posters here, and i'm very interested to learn why you chose your screen names.. .

  one book i read, the mists of avalon, was very important to me.

  among the main characters was merlin, who in the book, was called "taliesen".

  Ah, The Mists of Avalon. One of my all time favorite books. When I started to question Christainty , my close friend gave me a copy and said . I' think youre ready for this now'. I named my Cat after one of the charecters in the book.

  My name is also from another favorite books and author. Eva Luna by Isabel Allende. I liked the charecter becasue, she liked to tell stories.

  Nice topic Talesin. I've enjoyed reading all the responces.

  That is an interesting and comforting shared dream Palmtree.

  I remember being told we dont dream in color, well the vivd dreams seem to be in color to me.

  I had a simular one too.

  I felt someone sit on my bed in the middle of the night, my old reaction would be "oh My! Demons'.

  But, I reminded my self, I dont believe in that any more, so I just ignored it and went back to sleep.

  In what seemed like a short time, I felt some one sit on my bed again, so unafraid, I looked up.

  It was my Brother, he said everything was all right, not to worry about him, or be sad any more.

  He had recently died. I had felt it was my duty to keep his memorie alive. Keeping his personal belongings, listening to his music.

  Kind of made a shrine for him.

  The dream made me realize I needed to let go of this perpetual mourning. I was able to donate his things. accept for the music of couse...:-)

  and feel comfortated by this dream visit.

  Is flirting just harmless fun ?

  by caliber in

  1. social
  2. relationships

  on some base level, flirting is not destructive.

  in fact, it may be a perfectly natural and healthy way for two people to interact.

  yet, as the level of involvement in flirting increases, the emotional stakes rise for the two involved parties and the uninvolved member of the relationship.

  Because of my history I have some strong opinions on this. I may need more time to get over it, but here goes...

  If you are in a serious relationship, wether it be married or commited to each other. Flirting is disrespectful to your partner.

  I have also found it hides a strong possiblilty that they are attracted to the other person, but cloak it a way so you feel you are overreacting if you are uncomfortable with this 'flirtation'. Doesnt necessarily mean anythings going on though.

  I just dont think you would even flirt with someone, if you did not have an atrraction on some level.

  If it goes on for along time, it has been my experiance, that something more is going on. If longterm flirtation with the same person suddenly stops, thats an even bigger red flag.

  I've been there and I've watched it from the side too.

  Next time , eye poking will happen.

  .-( [that's some one that just got an eye poke, LOL]

  i left my cushy job at the bookstore and i'm totally free of employment responsibilities for the first time in millions of years.. i guess i'm now retired.. i can sleep as late as i want to but my body won't let me.

  my eyes pop open automatically waaaaay too early.. i can go where i want.

  the question now becomes: what do we do with total freedom?.

  I'd get a map, thumbtack it to the wall and get my darts out. Close my, eyes and throw.

  I imagine I would need to learn a new language.. Get the Rosseta Stone, and my oldest grandchild or likeminded child.

  Take the time and enjoy learning the language with them and GO. Stay in places , like hostels were you are in touch with people. Make it cheap ,,, the longer the better.

  Bring pen, water colors, stamps and moleskines. No one needs to tell you what to do with them....smile..

  Enjoy yourself, Terry

  Bonnie Raitt singing "I can't make you love me"

  Ouch , been there.

  The Ava Marie always gets me .

  Reminds me of the funerals on the other side of the family (Catholic side)

  Might as well tear up over "Starry Starry Nights', by Don McClean too.

  Read "Lust for LIfe' alittle to young. I cried when I saw my first painting of his, at the ripe old age of 40.

  Will the Apostate and C.B. JR. I agree.

  Johnny Cash's version of 'Hurt' gets me everytime too.

  i remember my mum standing at the kitchen sink preparing little cypriot meat patties in a beat up enamel dish.

  there was a window overlooking the small garden where me and my brother and sisters used to play (wonderful, wonderful times before the cult got its tentacles into our family).. my mum used to sing lots of tunes but this lynn anderson song is the one i remember .

  actually choking up a little .

  'How can I miss you when you wont go away?'

  By Dan Hicks and his Hotlicks.

  We also have our issues. I love her, but do we bump heads.

  I need to learn to restain my mouth. It just isnt worth it. I swear I turn into a braty teenager when religion is brought up.

  Were's that ducktape?
