    Hi Choca

    I'm so glad the port removal went well.  Gotta love those happy drugs, huh?!  Maybe you can bribe someone from chat to tell you what you said.  Hope you didn't tell any national security secrets LOL!

    I'm just sad about everything that has been going on lately. We are all fighting a tough battle, and it is just too exhausting to worry about who is here under an assumed name, who is trying to stir the pot, etc. I feel awful for the new visitors to this thread...I miss the place that it used to be.

    Gus that is my feelings also.  I guess it goes to show the loudest bark gets the bone.  I would never think of going and complaining to a mod.  Arent we adults here?  If you read something you dont like get over it and move on.  What do these people do in real life when they hear something they shouldnt hear?  Who do they run to then?

    Doesn't take much to confuse me............move over girls..........I'm on the confused couch with you.

    I, too feel sorry for the newbies that need help and support.........I know I would have kept on going had it been this way when I found this site.

    Nice to see the few of you that have posted here...................hmmmmmmmmm, haven't seen Vickie or not sure if I've seen nicki on here today........hope there isn't a reason!

    Hope all are having a great day!  MI is starting to cool down......today is Beautiful with temps in low 70's........down hill from here.

    Hugs,

    Denise

    Amy,I do not know the answer to your question. However,what was that they taught us in school(loved our Alabama schools) abt to thine own self be true?I think that was in the Alabama state song or something?  I just know that I try to be myself and with real people sick and having serious medical issues,I never have time for games. I appreciate my real friends and those who say hello to me and know that I try to be there for them,too.

    I met some great people here on this site and forever will be grateful. I am always delighted to make genuine friends that will support me in a setting such as this great place!

     Hope you have a good aft,Gus,Amy,Jasmine,Choca,Liz,Marsha,Margaret and I know I skipped friends. Sorry,fighting a tooth problem today!

    Hi everyone. Just trying to read and catch up.

    Z-So sorry you had such a bad time. Hugs to you lady.

    Michelle-Wow you need some hugs to. Here they come.

    Marsha-Did Cheri dh wants her to take a break or what?

    Charlene-I am with you on the asking for money thing. I for one am in debt up to my eyeball's from all this. How can we who have been struggling with medical bills and lack of pay checks be expected to pay for a site that is here to support us.

    Peter-Love to see you and your changing avatars.

    To all the women here I send my sadness your way.  I have been very busy the last 2 days.  Work is keeping me busier and busier and I'm finding less and less computer time.   I got home early and came here to show comfort and support to you and I am saddened by the news I a am reading.

    We must think about what the wagon circle is about.  Its a safe place where we can put you when your are in need of love and support.  So I think this whole thing is very sad.

    All of us as women, have lost alot with breast cancer.  We have lost our self esteem, our healthy bodies, our strength, our hair, and our hormones.  The last being the worst.  I know that I am a different person now, I lose my temper more, I say things that maybe I shouldnt.  Is that not part of moving beyond?  I need help figuring out what is going on with me.  I used to be strong and happy.  Assertive and sure of myself.  These are the reasons I come here.

    I just noticed that at the top where it says "My Home" I had a number 1 next to it................never noticed that before with the new decor.  Went to my inbox and it shows "1" next to it....................the last message on there is from Oct. 5.   Anyone else showing this?

    Hugs,

    Neesie ... No, I don't have that number next to "My Home"

    I'll try to be more careful and be aware that you can't "read" my body language or see my face through my typing.  My mind goes so much faster than my fingers and I tend to abbreviate my sentences.

    Love,

    Nicki and Vickie's posts to get me through the day.  There are so many of you here who I call friends.  I sure hope it's not true that there are people who have reported things to the moderators out of spite.  I also hope the moderators are treating all instances fairly.

    Slone, your news is also saddening to me.  I am so sorry you are in such a rough place.  I hope you can continue to find all the support you need.  My thoughts and prayers are with you.

    Breast Cancer may have brought us together, but the friendships made here have kept us together.  I will continue to pray for all of you here.

    BMD .. I hear you about the money!

    Iris Angel .. Hope your tooth feels better soon.

    Elaine, congrats on getting the port out.

    Slone,I am so sorry to hear your news.  Liz already asked but is there something we can do to help you?  Hugs to you.

    I'm sorry ladies.  I don't think I'm in much of a mood to chat tonight so I'll go to the pissy tent and watch Dancing With the Stars.  Hopefully I won't have to watch Wayne

    I'll catch up with you later.

    Oh Margaret, whatever you do don't read the DWTS thread in Growing Our Friendships.  I forgot about the west coast not seeing the show yet.

    Life is not fair!  I'm sure that is no surprise to most of us who are of an advancing age.  When we are young, somehow we have a rosy view that if you work hard you will be properly rewarded, if you treat people nicely, they will reciprocate, and if you do all the right things, that life will turn out according to your dreams and hopes.

    Somewhere in my mid-thirties, I got a clue.  That's just not how things happen.  Working hard won't necessarily move you up the corporate ladder, no matter how polite you are that sales clerk will still be rude, and life doesn't turn out like we would like.

    If I picked up my toys and ran home everytime something unfair happened to me, I would have lived a very reclusive and disappointing life.  The true character of a man or woman is persevering and staying the course when others get credit for your work, holding your head high when badly treated, and hanging onto hope when life disappoints.
