The weatherman is calling for our first snow tomorrow or Thursday. Yuck. Luckily it's only for an inch but it could be ice too, which is worse.

Mornin Y'all!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

All this talk of SF and Chocolate and other foods - sheesh!!! How could anybody keep up??

R - I got the idea - sorry you thought I was pressing - Hope it works out for you! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="images/icons/wink.gif" />

Kimmy - of course you were missed - the more the merrier, and the more pages to catch up on later, I say!

KY, et al - I had the most delicious day on Sat (NY) made BBQ ribs, corn on cob, mac-n-cheese, and black-eye peas - followed by banana pudding and the most yummiest chocolate pie I've ever made - was to die for!!! H even liked it, and if it's not a kit-kat or a whatchamacallit, he doesn't like it!!

OK, well, I'll be off - lots of triggers this weekend, and well, it all sortof sucks right now - BUT, we'll get through it - we always do! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="images/icons/smile.gif" />

Oh, one more thing - just curious about opinions -

For those of you whose S's had Finances/Security as a top EN - do you feel that put extra pressure on you to "perform" - i.e. did you feel that you were now expected to kill yourself in a job only to have to come home and jump hoops to keep up with the M too?

OK, just curious - maybe I explained it ok??

Morning RH and YL. It is Chocolate nirvana.
I have been asked to sell the tarts/pie to friends and to a restaurant for special occasions. Too much work though to do 10 at a time. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Eek!]" src="images/icons/shocked.gif" />

I only make it a couple of times a year. Christmas and special requests.

YL, wh has financial support as his #1 EN. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Roll Eyes]" src="images/icons/rolleyes.gif" /> THat is a real trigger for me. It feels as if working part-time and taking care of house, bills, DD is not enough. AND it makes him sound like he is trying to pimp me! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" />

We have gone through VERY bad times, financially and lost a house. SO, I can see, sort of what he is getting at. BUt cripes, it takes 2 to tango. And finances do not magically get better without work. Okay, enough venting.

Hi FL! Hope you're doing better today. What we're all going through is so hard. If we had half a clue when it was happening, most likely most of us would never have done what we did. Or we would have done things differently so that we wouldn't have to go through this.

And don't worry about keeping up with Idiotville. It's not that important. What is important is that you/we/all get the support we need and we're here for you when needed.

Hugs to you {{{{{FL}}}}}

I really need some comfort food this morning.

Hey Kimmy, YL, FL, Jelly, RIF, AW, FA-A, RH (hugs to NOW), Bob and where is Liny? Hello out there Brown!

Hope I covered everyone. Bad night last night.

Who got edited for what? Where? How come I miss all the good stuff? Jelly you getting edited is like Nikko getting edited, sheesh!

Ok, REALLY rough night after MC last night. Thinking of starting a thread for myself. Not sure if I want to open myself up for attack though. What are the waters like these days for the WS's?

Hello dayshift !

Just had an end of year work review. Looks like I can build myself a new more family friendly job for 2005 without losing too much cash.

Good news !

thanks all for the HIs and hugs. i am actually feeling better today. today i just feel like an idiot for being in a bad place the last few days. which is normally how it goes for me. i feel so embarrashed letting depression get to me.

anyway... guess that means it is a good day to post in idiotville. but i promise, NOTHING depressing. i think i still owe you guys another idiot thing that i have done. i'll have to come up with a good one. it always helps to laugh at oneself. although i have to go to this boring mtg first.

FF, i know it is hard sometimes but if you post i will read it and you know you will not get a harsh 2x4 from me. i'll give you a padded one if i think you really need one, but only in a constructive way. remember, you can always choose to filter out any post that will not help you towards your personal goal, but by posting you give yourself the opportunity to recieve help and support. hugs to you.

We had a conversation after MC that led him to tell me once again that he came back for the kids. I thought when he said that before it was fog talk as he was still with XOW at the time. Partly due to my pms I broke down and cried. That got him angry because he said this is not new information, you KNEW that already. I told him it hurts just the same. Anyway that led into me falling asleep watching TV and him getting angry and then a angry convo in bed that led to LB's on both sides. Lots of hurt feelings. But the kicker is he told me he has not decided yet if he is going to stay with me. I KNOW it has only been about 8 weeks since my dday, but I thought we were committed. He told me that before last night that he was. Do you think this was just anger talking?
