when you stop worrying about 'him' and what he is doing ... you are looking in the right place for serenity ....

you know I love you
That's my goal...serenity. Love you too. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />

Appy continued C and then some at least through December of 06. Beyond that I don't know. All I know is I want my life to be my own, I am sure you understand what I mean.

2long, you keep putting along in that car. I love the mental pic of you in it.

"...all the years I've professed that I don't let whether there's contact or no bother me, it really has only been recently that it doesn't really matter that much 2 me."

lol, like we couldn't tell.



"...and she wants 2 do them with me, probably because I don't make a big deal about her having 2 or not."

However, you ought to make a deal about it when she does, IMO.

I try 2, so long as I don't bank on any kind of reaction. 2 easy 2 disappoint one's self if you expect a positive response but don't get one.

So I don't expect anything. And if there's a positive response, I think.

hm... cool.

In the scheme of things - life, his2ry, truth and honesty - those little things really don't make or break me like when all I had 2 hang on2 were the crumbs.

I guess I'm just not that hungry these days...

Right now I am working on reading a book for ME. For my spiritual growth and my happiness in God. I am thinking getting myself centered spiritually will eventually give me the answer to what path to take. In the meanwhile I plan to get my financial ducks in a row.


Good! And the getting of your financial ducks in a row is a must. So many times you hear people say they stay with someone because they can't afford to leave, and that may be fine and dandy, but when you get to the point where you can no longer trust yourself or your perceptions as you have said...well there isn't enough money in all the land to make up for your sanity and your serenity.

That's why I read here so much when I first came Faith, I could not trust myself, I had no idea where reality began anymore.

Yes, please get your financial ducks in a row so you are not in the same place a year from now, mentally/emotionally.

Guess who I saw this morning at the gas station by my work????

That big, ugly pig. I swear he started walking towards me with his arms out and his hands held upwards as in some kind of non verbal gesture of peace or welcome or something.

I veered to the left and walked out the door.

My cowarker said after I told him "guess who I saw" -

Oh not the Rev Dan _________. And then he burst out laughing at the very thought of him calling himself a Reverand.

He's dumber than a box of rocks! (no ofense 2'long) He's a big, dumb friggen ox.

Oh puke, barf. Did I say I feel like I could just vomit. How could I have been with something like that?

Forgiveness. I need to forgive myself more than I need forgive him.

Gross!

Okay, back to my 40ish year old self now, Pep. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Mimi,

Do you realize that Spring is almost here? I say it is just about time for another beauty thread, don't you?

What happened to your "goddess" thread? Let's bump it, cuz I have found the best all natural shampoo and olive oil cleanser/body cremes.

Oh and the coolist Maui Jim sunglasses. I mean nothing cuts through the glare of the snow like those babies.

I wish you could have barfed on his shoes, Weaver. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/tongue.gif" alt="" />

Thanks for the encouragement. Overall I am better than I ever have been. I just don't need anymore surprises. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />

Okay, back to my 40ish year old self


I have a really cute pix of me, one of my favs actually

I was 38 years old
It was the week between Christmas and New Years
H & I were in Tahiti, taking our LAST vacation before the adoptions were to happen
H had been working on a TV show (Thirty Something) ... and the show had not yet aired, so no one had heard of it yet (especially in Tahiti where 90% of the vacationers were Aussies or da'Frenchies)... but I had a crew T-shirt that had the name of the show written across "the girls" ~~~> Thirty Something

and that shirt could have been refering to my age or "the girls"

I wore that shirt snorkeling and the Club Med people took shots of me in that shirt ... and it was the very last time I looked as cute as that !

waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa

but at least I have that memory (I think I weighed about 105 pounds back then) ... damn ! chit!

That was 20 years ago

anyone have a T shirt that sez:

[color:"red"]FIFTY SOMETHING [/color]

????????????????????????

anyone

????????????????????????

NO WAY..I DON'T BUY THIS FOR ONE MINUTE.."YOU CUTE THING YOU"....

Quote
FIFTY SOMETHING


That would be me and I'm not talking about the SIZE OF THE GIRLS....

The only thing I haven't liked lately is being one of the OLDEST CHICKS in the room...one of my colleages, in referring to ANOTHER COLLEAGUE said: "X is OLD, she's ALMOST 40"..I called her on this, telling her my age and she said: "Wow, you don't LOOK THAT OLD"..I'm not sure if I should take that as a compliment or not... <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/rolleyes.gif" alt="" />

I don't know Pep, you looked pretty cute in that Beatle's T-shirt. Remember the one I believe I was supposed to get? After I pry it out of your cold, dead hands that is. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

I bought GB a camera for his B-day that has a built in candle light lens.

How smart was that? I'm pretty sure I will look 10 years younger with that lens in all the pics he takes of me. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Speaking of Tahiti, we met a guy down in FLA who had just had his wedding and spent his honeymoon there. To save money and allow for the whole dang family to have a little vacation, he ended up spending the entire honeymoon with his new in-laws and his family.

He said it was the honeymoon from ******! Can you imagine?

"anyone have a T shirt that sez:

FIFTY SOMETHING?????"

I have an all black one that says just "SOMETHING".

And a red one that says "THANG 1".

Here's an idea for you Pep, start a T Shirt of the Month Club. Get rich.

They don't contain any Sodium Laurel Sulphate, 2long. Geesh, can you get up to snuff on the new breakthroughs. Serious chit, man. <img src="/ubbt/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Rightbackatcha, Striven'.....PEEK!

Can a letter of amiability be rescended? An olive branch...can you take it back?

I mean the rat has no shame. How can he possibly walk up to me. He's shameless, I swear. What a puke!

Why, oh why did I leave that stupid letter in the trailer over on the Island the last time I went. That was my trailer yanno...and I just let the puke have it. YoY did I leave that letter. YoY didn't I listen when ya'll told me not to sign the property over.

Some days, it just hits all over again like a ton of bricks.

I'll be fine by the end of the day though.

FF,

"All I know is I want my life to be my own, I am sure you understand what I mean."

Yeah. I know what you mean.

A life we can be proud of.

And have no fears whatsoever at the end.

With prayers,
