I Miss You Guys!!!

Hi Guys....I have had an amazing day today! My daughter is up from Nashville and we all got together at my sisters house(that's how i'm able to post tonight)She is coming to my apartment on Wednesday so we can have a very good Father/Daughter talk.Isn't it strange that men have very special relationships with their Mothers and Daughters?I love me Son equally,but it's a different type of relationship than with my Daughter.My relationship with my Mother was very different than with my Father,but loved each of them equally.

I don't have time to go back and read all the posts,but have read enough to see there has been some controversy.It always saddens me to see this happen.I guess we all look for different things when we come on the board.We aren't always in the best of moods when come here too.It's always so nice to see someone come here seeking help and not knowing what they should do or expect,and have so many come to their aid with support!!

We need to support each other!! We all know what it's like to deal with the medical community,and I guess the community at large with being an addict.Only an addict can understand what another addict goes through.I thank God on a daily basis for groups like Na,AA,DDA,Recovery message boards,and other groups who offer support and education with addiction.

For me...I try and treat people like I would want to be treated.I'm not easily offended like I use to be.God knows I've said things I wish I could take back,but...I need to humble myself and go back and make things right with whom I've spoken badly to.It's amazing to me how much closer you can get to someone after some harsh words and when we are able to humble ourselves and truly feel remorse for what we have done.

I wish I had more time to post!! Liz...I hope you go get checked out tomorrow!!! I will be praying for you.

Terrianne...still praying for Amanda.How is she and the rest of the family doing?

I've been able to get down to the library a couple of times and actually got on a computer.I'll keep trying the library a couple times a week.I sure miss not being able to come here as often as I use to.Please remember me in prayer for a computer.I would really appreciate any prayers you could offer,Thank you!!!!

Hi Lisa....Good to hear from you!! Still praying that somehow I can get a computer.It sucks being RSDI,Can't go to the bank and get a loan.Even though it's steady income they won't even consider a loan because of the risk.If I would decide I didn't want to make payments,they couldn't do much about it.being on RSDI means my wages can never be garnished.

I still keep my eyes and ears open for any kind of deal on a computer.

Lisa...I just want to thank you for responding to my email.I really liked what you had to say!

Do you have a big family turn out for Thanksgiving? We don't any-longer,everyone seems to have moved too long of distances away from each other.I was just so grateful that my little girl made it up this Thanksgiving.

Talk to you later Lisa.

Hey Kevin. No, we won't do the big Thanksgiving this year. My mom in law is in pretty bad shape so we'll be staying home. My boys like it that way, so it works for them. They actually like my cooking and would rather be at home where it's quiet than at my sister's where it's nuts. She's a great gourmet cook but they prefer traditional thanksgiving fare.

Why is it that you can't get a loan? What does that mean?

I'm so happy to talk to you. I'll say it here on the board what I told you in an email...it's because of you and your grace that has started me on my road to an understanding and love of God.

Love
Lisa

Hey Bish,

Not sure if you will be back before Thanksgiving. I want to wish you a Happy Thanksgiving. I'm still looking for a computer for you on the freecycle. So far nothing good has come up. I'll keep an eye on it though. Take Care.

Love,
Liz

Hey, Whacky..i'm originally from Scotland..moved here when I was nine. It's so odd..they all cook a turkey and tatties and veggies and stuffing and pumpin pies and apple pies and they invite everyone over and stuff their faces. My family does it now too. I'm no history buff..but something about pilgrams and Indians and Plymoth Rock...you should start up your own Thanksgiving dinner over there...it's always the Last Thursday of November. Now, remember that will make an extra holiday with the family. Can you take it?

Dear Bish:

So sweet - I do know about those Father-Daughter relationships - I considered my Daddy perfect. Really miss him but love the memories.

I hope and pray a computer works out for you.
Your words need to be spread.

I wish for you a happy Thanksgiving. Will be 6 of us - Husband, 2 sons, 1 has a wife and the other brings his g'fiend and me - I love Thanksgiving, favorite holiday of the year.

Love you.
Try and stay in touch.

Love, Jean
