    Anyone Else's Symptoms Wrecking Xmas For Everyone?

    Hee ( not lauging at you, this is a 'whew ' ), spent some time worrying whether or not I should have posted anything. PTSD, the gift that keeps on giving, forget where I read that here. You finally work up the kehungas to say something then spend the rest of your natural life thinking about the...

    What Made You Angry Today?

    Ah. Update on the news. Bullet-proof backpacks for our children- a serious discussion on the part of 'pro'. Guess the children get to sling the pencils, then duck behind the kevlar backpacks. THERE'S a plan. So. Still pretty MAD.

    Anyone Else's Symptoms Wrecking Xmas For Everyone?

    I had some awful, incredible Christmases with said addict/alcoholic, would have given a LOT to have had him come a tenth as far as you have. He never did, faded into obscurity and disease along with his surgical career, I hear died alone. I have no way of knowing the struggles you've had or what...

    What Made You Angry Today?

    The pro-gun lobby did it already this morning for me. Blurb on the news, generally do not engage the d*m tube, this one just got me. Someone wanted the children to throw pencils at armed gunmen in classrooms, while teachers blasted away with their own weapons. That made me angry.

    New Moderators

    My talent is to know enough to stay OUT of the way, when anything technological is in the offing. You'll see me sidling over to the 'Donate' button, kind of kicking it with my foot, in order to pretend to be helpful around here. Then I get to come and congratulate the real contributors of time...

    Wanted to ask, why the Knights Templar, Cath? I'm only asking because my grgrandfather belonged to them, I have this stuffed, old scrapbook of memorabilia of his, and his old sword from I guess the turn of the century. Those guys took it extremelyyyy seriously- have photos and items from...

    That was very kind, thank you Cath! Hummingbirds are awesome, had to try some- they're the little terrors of the island we go to in Maine. Always reminds of SO many summers up there. They dive-bomb each other at the feeders and buzz us when we let the feeders go dry. Never been bullied by...

    My Mom's a knitter- LOVE watching them! They can talk and converse and keep track of all that while turning out this stuff too. Ridiculous. She tried to teach all of us. I can KNIT, as in pendantically, can't do that stuff! Cool as heck, hope you share more of that please?

    There's a ton of great browsing on this thread, isn't there? I came to browse last night, just for pleasure- it was like walking through a nice exhibit, had a blast!! Finally logged in, left some and added the food only because the keyboard has flour on it. Trying to fit the baking in on top of...

    Are You Buying Your Therapist A Christmas Gift?

    Oh, those pies said ' I'm terrible at being able to say Thank You, but you're a T and you know that-here's-some-very-good-pies-instead. ' Mince is kind of rare, bet he loves them! I posted this about a previous Christmas- I give mine home-made nutroll. Yep. Every year.

    News Another Shooting In The Us

    I could only read that bit by bit. Tough going. ITL, thank you. Yes, there's been a ton of discussion on that. A hundred bazillion percent true and amazing and up until Friday for some reason not listened to. Ugly tentacles. I am not at all torquing the thread to say I was heartbroken, truly-...

    News Another Shooting In The Us

    Oh, it's a vast country, Ms. Spock with vast social problems, tough to always pin down. This one? Tentacles deep and entrenched all the heck all over the place, in pockets of ugly we have to look at now somehow without flinching. I think we will. It's part of our country's inate ability to find...

    Meteor Shower!!

    I'm STILL not having a shot at spelling the thing but we used to see them in northern Maine, in the summer. For some reason it hasn't been the case lately, but remember as children thinking it was some typical summer magic, all these smudged lights moving around in the sky over the lake. I'll...

    The Purpose Of The Forum

    This IS a wonderful thread. I've been at this awhile- thinking perhaps something I had to say was SOOO important it was worth putting my adrenaline through the roof to stand my ground, or not having enough respect across the board to balance the conversation, or even have the common sense to be...

    Anyone Else Go From Normal To Suicidal Within Minutes?

    I think that should be moved to the thread which has the positive thoughts, etc- it's awfully good! Affirmations work, they just DO. I do not know enough about brain function, etc. to understand why- also dislike the whole 'explaining' some of this stuff, you know? I'd rather think/know God is...
