Good morning everyone.How are you all doing?Things are looking pretty good for me,im feeling much better,more energy and a better outlook.Each day seems to get easier. I come here to this board every morning and ususally at night as well.I feel this board has been a tremendous help to me.Sometimes i feel i dont belong,i really havent fit into any of the cliques and i havent really gotten close to any ONE person,i dont email with anybody,and nobody has asked me to ,so i do feel a little on the "outskirts" when i read all the closeness and the close friendships some of you have formed,.but i still feel a kinship,a bond with each and every one of you.You have all been where im at,and know exactly how im feeling,i need that kind of connection to keep me going.Somedays,like i said,i feel im not really a PART of this board,but i do know i NEED it,and all of you on a daily basis.Thanks for being here~KIM
Good Morning Kim,
So glad to hear you're feeling well. I'm doing better myself and slept like a babe last night. Yes, there are a lot of long established friendships on here...I know for me I never did fit in to groups. But I can tell by the way people respond to you that you are loved and respected. I'd love for you to email me if you'd like. I'm home all weekend and my kids spend time with their dad so could use a friend. rrose9@aol.com. I saw that beautiful drawing of you when you were young...wait...that sounds terrible...when you were younger. What a cool, story. Hope you have a great day! Beck

Thanks Beck.i appreciate your kind word. After rereading my post,it makes me sound like im desperately looking for friends,looking for email buddies,looking for sympathy(just sounding a little pathetic i guess).Honestly,thats not the way imeant it to come across.I was just stating how i kind of feel out of the loop here(a little)but im ok with it,really,i like and respect everybody here,and i truly have a full life,many friends and family,so im not lonely or desperate for companionship.I appreciate your giving me your emial address though and i will defiantly drop you a line,thanks for being so considerate,it means alot to me!~KIM

Thanks Terrianne,enjoy your day too,gotta love the sunshine.Not going to have much here,but no rain either so,i'll take it.Im on my way to buy 2 small kids rakes so when i get my grandchildren this afternoon we can rake the front yard.I got the huge orange pumkin leaf bags so they can fill them up with leaves and then they can put them out front for decorations for a couple days.We will have a great day.My granddaughter went to the pumpkin patch last week and got her pic on the front page of the newspaper,she is sooooo adorable,her and her class mate were both lifting a huge pumpkin,the look of determination on her face was priceless,i will try and post the pic.....
Good morning from calif.
Well I wish I were still sleeping, since it is only 6:42 am on saturday..
It is a sad thing when there has to be "cliques"..Reminds me of high school..
One thing we need to remember, and yes I am still very much a newbie here..but we are all adults and should act like it, and make everyone feel welcome.Geez this has been the hardest 2 weeks of my life ( really ) and yes I am sensitive, but this is when I think we all need the comfort and kind words from those that have been in recovery longer...KUDO's to them!!! Maybe some can handle "tough love" but not all of us can, we are all indivdual's...its not a state of denial its a state of being a human with feelings...as the saying goes..kindness kills. I guess its just my thought for the day, believe me I have to think of the statement everyday of my life.......put a smile on my face, and then grin bare it and keep my mouth shut!!! ( well as much as I can...LMAO)
Today is going to be a good morning, my hun is home all day with me.woo hoo, maybe hit up a few of the new movies that came out....then have a fire, candles and relax!!!! no kids!!!! well teenager that is,,hehehehehe so gonna be quiet!!!! Enjoy all.
And keep up the good work!!!

Hey Kim, Gee, I thought it was me who sounded desperate. In no way did you. Where on earth did you find the pumpkin leaf bags?? I've looked for years for them...never seen them. I fill up 2 50 galloon garbage cans every week for 3-4 months. True story. Wonderful in the summer, sucks hard in the fall. It just stopped raining here. I'm glad as the front yard is a mess. My sycamore hasn't even started to drop yet, but the quakies (???sp) are done. Glad I have kids to help!! Beck
Good Saturday morning to all;
Hope everyone has a beautiful weekend.
Love, Jean
