Morning LINY. I totally agree with you about those posts. Are they kidding? I refuse to read that garbage. Most of us are here to try and repair a broken R and then there oare the +r00!!$ that waste everyone's time by tyring to validate their sick behaviour or throw a monkey wrench into everyone's goals. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" />

I hang out in I'ville to stay away from those threads. SOme of them just plain scare me and others are like WTH? A lovefest with a pro? PULEEEAASE. SHould I edit that last remark out?

ENough venting. I need to get ready to shovel my driveway! Whoopty Doo.

Another round of coffee for eveyone.

See you idiots later. Liny, feel better dear. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />

And take a bath. Water as warm as you can stand it....it'll make the achies go away for awhile.

TheraFlu isn't just for flu, either! GET SOME! It helps, I swear!

Brown, you need to nail his [censored] to bed after his bath. I feel for ya, chica! Sick men are such a drag! (BROWN)

No bud, I took the cure....I know what causes that (pg) and fixed those puppies good! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> Now I'm strictly a playground, not a baby maker.

Too bad OW didn't pass her basic biology classes tho................. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Mad]" src="images/icons/mad.gif" />

OK...Whiny LINY comin' out. Let's break this down:

I can't remember the last time I felt this shi^^y for this long. And I certainly can't remember when I've called in sick two days in a row.

PS had to hide in my 3yo bed yestareday--every othe room was full of noise. (That's another thing. I don't think I have ear infections--no pain--BUT, the noise level is tremendous in the past week. Very sensaitive. I guess I''ll find out in a little over an hour. But, this dr group also deals with herbal medicine, acupuncture, etc. I';m the type when I ask for a specific medicine, just give it to me damnit! (Will change one of my AD's too--the one he thought was so great gave me nightmares immediately and knocked my [censored] out--cant have that with a 3yo. I requested lexapro--just prescibe it damnit. Just like yesterday: had to tell the receptionist: "What don't you understand? I want an appointment tommorrow. Not today. Tommorrow. How many times Do I have to ask? And don't tell me to call back tommorrow to 'see if you can fit me in.' I need an appointment. What time should I come in tommorrow?!?"

OK...I suppose that was rant # 3!!!!

Gotta go get ready.

have a great weekend de

I know some won't want to hear this, but here goes:

This post has been dominating the top of the list for too long now, it has transformed into a chat session, and is discouraging to those of us hoping to get some input on our issues. I understand the need to chat and vent, and discuss non-MB things, but couldn't we move this thread to another forum?

I'm sure there are many posting here that have great advice & support for those of us that are new to this, how about a helping hand?

As for it "dominating the top of the list"... surely you know how to scroll.

Hosea,
I respect you for your concerns and voicing them publicly. Not many have actually done that--publicly. However, I am concerned over that this thread spends too much time at the top comment. Why would this concern you? Like the other threads that you "disapprove of" just ignore it if you don't feel it is worthy of your time.

As I said, if you do not like a thread, don't post to it. I'm not sure how this is affecting your issues. Please explain.

</font><blockquote><font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial">quote:</font><hr /><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">I understand the need to chat and vent, and discuss non-MB things, but couldn't we move this thread to another forum?</font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial">FYI, yes, we use this thread to get away and "vent", HOWEVER, we DO use MB principles as the rest of the threads and forums should. Are we "edgy" at times? Certainly. But we all "Idiots" have experienced or are experiencing some sort of indfidelity (on both "sides") and use this thread for a multiple of reasons--MB principles definitely included. (I would suggest reading the past few days, for example.)

I'm still confused over the fact why you would want this thread to move to another forum. We are a conglomerate of different infidelity situations, practice MB principles, support one another, and find this thread to be a "safe escape."

As for supporting other threads/posters? Click on the MB name, then recent posts. You will see, we all ask for and attempt to help the others outside of "IDIOTVILLE."

I appreciate you publicly voicing your concerns, but am very confused as to "why."

You are certainly welcome to "join" us at anytime.

LINY

OK idiots...really got to go now...will check in for some responses (Yes, you too hosea!) after i get back.

CYA!

We are living, we are living with infidelity, right here, candid, honest, truthful living. We are supporting each other through a time when our hearts are breaking. We are encouraging each other, we are advising each other, we are crying with each other, we are laughing with each other, we are SUPPORTING each other, and we also rejoice with each other for the break throughs we are making.


You are welcome to take up a residency here, you will find love, friendship and support like you wouldn't believe, we are all people here who understand the full effects of the pain of infidelity. We might chose a different way to make our way through this, but it should not be looked at as discouraging!!!

Discouraging - would be the last word I would every chose to describe what Idiotville is.

Hey LINY....feel better soon, please!

Hosea....

I don't know what to say except this:

If it weren't for this thread, right here, I would NOT still be checking into MB AT ALL! I am helped immensely by being here. My BS and I have come a long way in recovery, but not so long that I don't still feel raw when I read the fresh pain of others. Coming to the Idiotville thread kind of stabilizes me, and also keeps me "on my toes", so to speak. Kind of a gentle reminder of what BS and I have been through, not one that beats me over the head. I need this to stay "accountable". I often don't know what to say to some posters, but I do read and learn from them.

I also don't understand how this thread is discouraging to others. I promise to keep an open mind if you care to explain. Meanwhile, you are welcome here!

Take care,

NOW

LINY - The lozenges are Vitamin C, Echinacea and zinc. Not just for sore throats....for bolstering your immune system so you can fight off this buggwuggie. I swear they work!

Hosea - You know, if you read back on any of the pages, but yeah. We have fun. We also support each other, give out input, and reach out if we need a shoulder. So what if we're friends and all chummy and schmaltzy? When your soul been shattered into a bagillion, magillion pieces, you tend to grow a fondness for those that help you superglue yourself back together.

Liny is at the Dr's office...

I called in and suggested they check his prostate! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Razz]" src="images/icons/tongue.gif" />

Out of concern for his health, of course.

Get well soon Liny!! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" /> <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

You are wicked bad, Robby!

That's why I like ya! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Big Grin]" src="images/icons/grin.gif" />

Oh, I see we're in trouble again. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />

That's probably the opinion of a lot of people but I wonder how many people actually read what we write to each other. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="images/icons/frown.gif" />

Maybe we could move to "Resolving Conflict" because that's what we do best.

LINY, I hope the doc finds out what's wrong and it's not too bad.

I'm Back! Well, I never left. THe darn snow is so thick here I can't get out to the road. So, I get to pack some more boxes and hang out here instead. Yay!.
