I don't eat Candy Canes, but Star, the horse does. She prefers the larger ones that are easier to unwrap, easier for her to lick, and easier for me hold.

The horse prefers the ones that are easier to unwrap?

Well, I suppose I would too if I had to unwrap them with my hooves.

Not having thumbs sucks. rotflmao

The horse also thinks Coronas and Candy Canes make the perfect Christmas morning brekfast.

She's kind of strange, but I love her anyway!

Announcement: I was abused as a child. Therefore, from this day forward, I get to do whatever I want. I will not be responsible for my actions. Any bad behavior on my part must be looked upon with forebearance and pity, as I am one of those marginalized minorities who had some bad experiences as a child.

I am accepting donations for my therapy fund so that I can whine to my therapist about my childhood, which will successfully relieve me of having to accept any poor results of my adult decisions. Feel free to contact me so that I may forward wiring instructions to anyone who would like to wire therapy funds into my account.

End of Announcement. wink

New Poster: please help us recover our marriage. Nothing is working and she has ended her affair

board members: she has to delete her facebook account, become transparent, etc, etc, etc,

NP: oh no, we can't do that!!

board members: ok, then do this

NP: oh no, we can't do this!

Newcomers who want help but are not willing to do anything that is not easy or inconvenient. banghead

That's why I try not to post to new people anymore. I always end up bashing my head on the wall in frustration. banghead

I'd really like to not hurt the walls anymore, spackle is getting expensive! shocked

It drives me crazy when a poster comes here and doesn't actually use the plans. This resource is the best around, why would you squander such an opportunity? I know that I would have benefited greatly had I found MB earlier, but as it is, I didn't do too bad.

And then, you've been a member since the early days, and you were a BS, only to marry someone new and become the WS. What happened to using MB in your new relationship? What were you thinking? It's here, it's free, use it.

this is not a rant sorry- but this is where you vets hang out so i just wanted to drop a note to you all to say thank you for helping so many get through a rough year.

and a chistmas poem my mom gave me...

For You At Christmas

If I could do whate'er I want to do
To make glad your Christmas day,
I would not bring a thing to you,
But would take some things away.

I'd take all troubles from your heart,
Each pain and sorrow would be relieved.
And every word that caused a single smart,
And every hour through which you grieved.

I'd have them all forever gone,
Forgotten, like things that cannot be,
Then each hour would be a joyous one,
For only good things would be left, you see.

That's what I'd REALLY like to do
If I could do the things I wish for you!

NP: WH still works with OW.

board members: He has to quit.

NP: But he's being nice since exposure, and we need the money.

board members: Sorry, but it won't work.

NP: They don't really work in same department, so it'll be ok since he can only see her if he tries to see her and he says he won't.

board members: *crickets chirping*

And my fav!

O(ld)P: We ARE recovered! He only "sees" OW on occasion and it is impossible to avoid. We have POJA'd it!

Board Member: You could move, he could change jobs, etc. Your marriage is NOT recovered and is at great risk!

O(ld)P: I'm taking my marbles and going home! You're just a big bad meanie who's trying to control me!

sigh
