Hey I don't get involved with drama, try not to at least. But when someone insults people that I hold in high regard, my claws come out.
You have to understand one thing, these people have been here loooong beofre you, long before me too, and I've been here awhile and I don't know whats going on, because its not my business and does not involve me. ( I hope)
I like everyone but you made me angry with the remarks your making to Bob and Gina. Please stop it.
I respect Bob for sticking up for his wife. He's a good husband and loves her. That shows Love, loyalty and lots of CLASS....Leave 'em alone.
Bob baits August, Littlebeach defends August, you defend Bob and Gina (even though nothing's been written on this for almost 24 hrs) -- do you see the pattern here? It happens over and over and over on this Board. I have been here a while and I'm pretty sure I do know what underlies the whole August thing, and I do have opinions about how people handled this. But I don't express them because none of it has a damn thing to do with helping people achieve or sustain recovery on this Board. And the personal side-taking is destructive. Please let it rest. LB -- I respect your opinion and your right to defend yourself, and I know you can (very ably), but please take the high road on this and let it die. Thanks. Respectfully, M.
Hey Rosie-
I absolutely agree with you. Bob and Gina are very special people. They have ALOT of class and have helped many long before I even came to this board. They deserve respect, they are very good, caring and loving people.
BTW - Roe, hows your hand doing today? Hope youre feeling better, sweetie. Is your email working yet? We have some catching up to do.
Love you,
Marie

Ok- Everyone relax. I love you all! Sincerely!
Danny-
Always the peacemaker!!!:o) Yes, I agree, lets not stir up any trouble anyone. This board is for recovery. I see that Bob and Kerry have already dropped it - so lets let it be, as None mentioned above.
C'mon Danny, tell us a joke!!
Love,
Marie

Marie- I'm going to try..I may have to edit
Thank you Briar for starting this post. Kerry is unfairly attacking Bob and Gina. She does not know the long history here between all of us and August. When he said that we are in fact like s*** on his shoes that showed his true character. That was so hurtfull to all of us. I had done nothing to him, only showed him respect in my posts. He has lost my respect. Gina decided to post to him and I don't blame her and it was none of Kerry's business.
Kerry you need to understand that you do not know the history here between all of us. You only know what you read here. You do not know what has transpired on other boards, in private email or in IM messages. Calling Gina an a** yesterday was so wrong and unfair of you. You do not know what a kind, caring, smart, loving and loyal person she is. I also think that you may be getting your information from one of the most hurtfull, lying and hatefull persons that I have ever met. I hope that I am wrong about this. Gina is having a really hard time right now, things that you know nothing about. IMHO you owe her an apology. She did nothing to you to deserve the statements that you have said against her.

Please everyone- Just relax and chill here. I like Bob, Gina and Kerry and everyone. No need to fight. We already saw that stuff. Let's all just get along.
Hi Sharon -
My thoughts exactly.
Anyway, besides that have you heard from Cowgirl? I was just concerned cuz I havent seen her post in a couple of days. Do you know where she is?
Have a great day!!
Love,
Marie
BTW - DANNY - THAT IS SO COOL :O) THANKS.

Danny, I like the peacemaker in you! That's a nice trait. I too hated to see that happen as I like all these people. Perhaps it coming from those who also like Kerry that it was overboard, it might not seem like such a bad thing to her. I have no way of knowing Kerry, if you know the history behind August, Bob and Gina's feelings, but if you don't then perhaps it seemed more wrong to you than it was. I would be happy to explain it to you personally if you'd like me to via email or something. Gina and Bob aren't assholes, I can promise you that. They, like most of us here at one time, were horribly conned by someone intent on causing discord on this board and everywhere else. There are still some left over feelings between Bob, Gina and August. Hopefully in time, they will be able to work out their problems as the rest of us have. It's nice to have this board for everyone, where all can be friends and share and help each other. Perhaps you could reconsider the remark and make ammends? Gina truly was hurt by it and didn't understand the personal attack from you. It really is so much nicer for everyone to like each other. I've seen it the other way and it winds up effecting lots of people and taking away from the focus of recovery and friendship here. What do you say, Kerry? Nothing to lose, lots to gain, don't miss out on their friendship over stuff you probably don't even understand. Love, Kat
This is a public forum, when you post things like that people are bound to respond, whether they know what happened "outside" of here or not. If people don't want a response, it (the arguements and such) should be handled outside of the forum as well...

I just want to see everyone get along. I respect everyone. I was already "duped" once..I'm smoke the peace pipe now with anyone!
Marie,
Hi there, hope your nite is going good. I have had a horrible headache all day, finally feeling a little better. I hate this drama and the stress that occurs from it.I wish it could be kept off this board but since Kerry put her remarks here, this is the only way that I could express my opinion about what she said. Gina did not deserve to be called names by someone who doesn't know her. It has hurt her deeply and that hurts me.
I have not heard from Lisa but everything is probably OK, at least I hope so. I miss her when she does not post.
Love you,

So glad that headache is better Sharon! You had me worried earlier. Hope Lisa hasn't come down with this flu everyone has gotten. I agree with you that I wish this stuff could be kept off the board. How nice it could be for all to be friendly, agree to disagree if you must, but be nice. Love you sister, Kat
Hi Sharon-
I was just concerned about Cowgirl. I found it odd that she hasnt posted in a couple of days. Just hope that everything is OK.
So sorry that you had a headache all day. That sucks!!! I'm glad youre feeling better. I feel bad for Gina - I dont think she deserved that either - for no reason. I hope youre not hurt that August didnt post to you for your one year clean. I guess he has his reasons and I really couldnt believe what he said on the other MJ Board!!! That really shocked me coming from him. Now that wasnt very "classy" at all. Oh well, I guess he got his point across loud and clear (and rude) sorry.
I hope things get back on "track" here. Things have seemed to be going so smoothly and everyone getting along is wonderful. That's what its all about.
Hi Kat - didnt want to leave you out - hope you have a great night!! I'm pooped - took care of little Kylee today - boy she sure keeps me on my toes!!! She just turned 1 on Dec, 5th and running all over the place and getting into everything. But the good thing is I can spoil her rotten and then send her home - thats the fun part of being a Grandma:o)
Hope you guys have a great night!!! If you talk to Lisa, let me know that shes OK - OK? lol
Love,
Marie

This is pathetic. I tried, but forget my earlier post Kerry. Not that the truth means anything, apparently, but Kerry didn't call Gina an a**, she called Bob an a** for going to the MJ board and baiting August. Plain and simple. Bob's a big boy and did a fine job of defending himself yesterday. This could have died. You need to look at your motives ladies.
I agree with None..everyone RELAX
Thanks none. I got your point.
I called Bob an a** because of his post to August. I thought his post was really childish, and I thought that he was pretty insulting to August. In another previous post, I called August the Wise One. Bob went on to say that he wouldn't consider August the wise one...the first insult.
The fact that he made those remarks onanother board, unsolicited, was really childish. Then Gina piped in on the board. I found that kind of behavior really idiotic.
Gina, Bob, you are very right. I don't know either of you. I don't know what has transpired between you and August. I probably have overstepped my bounds, but I called the shot like I saw it. Your behavior wasn't like someone who is in recovery.
Bob and Gina both were probably pissed off, and came back at me with some very childish comments. "Keep coming back..." "You wanna start stick with me?" Now, because of serious restraining acts on my part.....I am going to say that perhaps I shouldn't post when I see a baboons a** coming out. I will keep that to myself. I like coming here, and where I am at, there aren't alot of meetings, and especially not alot of meetings with good recovery. I have made friends here, and I enjoy alot of the posts. I ALWAYS GOT SOMETHING OUT OF AUGUSTS POSTS, AND I AM SAD TO SEE HIM GO. I HAVE HIS POST ABOUT FEAR ON MY FRIDGE, AND I READ IT EVERYDAY.
I don't know you, Gina, and this wasn't directed at you. For what ensuded, I do apologize, but not about your husband behaving like a five year old.
That I will firmly stand behind.
To everyone reading this post, I apologize for any drama. I haven't been here long, and I hate the ganging up and drama. It crossed my mind today how fragile I am, I am an addict, and to piss off another addict, well, that isn't something I go around doing.
In sincere hopes that we all recover,
Kerry

And please correct me if I am wrong, but Kat, I didn't insult Gina. I insulted Bob. When she came at me in his defense, I went back at her.
Danny, that was ABSOULTEY HYSTERICAL. I LOVE YOUR POSTS AND SENSE OF HUMOR. THAT I NEED MORE OF.

I think that when any of us have things on our minds we should be able to say them. Thats what this is all about. But along with everyone eles, the drama has gotten out of control so to speak. You said what you needed to say and so did the other party. It always makes me feel better to say what is on my mind too!! I have no idea what happened between anyone. I have been reading along though. Its hard not to. But , each and everyone of you have helped me in a way that i cant ever give back and i dont want to see any more fighting words between anyone. Im new here( well not that new) but new to some of you guys and i just thought that all of you have something nice in you! At least from what iv herd in the past post. Whoever said it was right , this hasnt been brought up in almost 24 hours. Why bring it back up now???
Have a great night everyone, and a Merry Christmas too!!!
