Sorry for the thread jack of your journal. I hope that you at least laughed for a few minutes and forgot about all of the other things in your life that bring you down.

Smile, because there are people that care for you in this life.

Eav~

Mr. Wondering and I were talking last night about how that Lem actually helped you more than you may realize...he, at least, shifted your focus...if only for a moment...It is our consensus, in knowing the little that we do about your situation, that a "focus shift" is really what you need...Good Luck!

Hey Lemon,

U know we still 'luv' your postings, right?!??!?! Sometimes 'tough love' comes in all shapes and sizes.

Don't stop your MOP (method of posting). <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> The slaps to reality are needed here more often than not.

Good medicine is sometimes a bitter pill but it still works......if we digest it into our lives. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Hear hear! I second Orchid's post. Lemonman, I have a LOT of appreciation for you. Even though I lurk more than post, or maybe because of it? I benefit quite a bit from your wisdom.

Orchid and Mel, since you're here. I've been benefitting from you two, albeit also from afar in time and space - I've been reading your older posts for sanity checks as needed... So thanks and keep wishing me luck and prayers. Any time you have time to drop in and help point the way - feel free.

Eav, I don't have the wisdom the others have to help. Still, I try to read up with what's happening with you. Your sit. touches me. Hug from a stranger ---> {{{{Eav}}}

On this post, Lemon turned into Lemonade and I appreciated what he said to EAV..

Maybe it's just me.

I certainly agree with the need for toughness.

However, I'm not going to be supportive to what to me "sounds like" meanness in the form of sarcasm...

I'm also not going to be supportive of what sounds like insults to Steve Harley. I'm loyal to him. He was a GODSEND to me...

Just my opinion...

Dang, so much for my use of of BOLD LOVE..working on using CUNNING with LM.... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
