Well yes, that is a very good point, ' Better to be Safe ', etc. I've seen the Criminal Justice System pull some idiotic moves ( haven't we all, Holy Heck, first thing I'm going to do when I get to Heaven, if he's still there and hasn't fallen off a cloud somewhere, is find him and ask for my...

Well, that was very nice of you Gizmo. Please ( please... :) ) feel free to tell me to shush if any long posts start to fray your nerves ( ie get annoying or intrusive. ) No one here would possibly blame anyone for wishing to kind of withdraw a little into some SILENCE, or at least a little...

I don't know what your feelings are on churches in general, but not a lot of people take into consideration that some of the denominations require ministers to be at the very least qualified counselors as part of their training. Not based on whatever their religious perspective might be, either...

Thanks very much, Whitney! I just read your post to my husband ( sans name, promise.... :) ) because we're in the middle of this discussion right now, he was extremely interested. I'll bet the phone companies dislike this kind of conversation huh? Oh well, they'll live, just without a few of...

Ohhhh my gosh, I realize there's not a lot to giggle about at the moment but I hope you allow yourself one wishing to be a fly on the wall when he gets the news about her new job. I did and I'm not even related to her, just am getting a huge kick out of this. Please, please follow her to work...

Yes, the attorney I finally was able to get scared the bejeesis out of ME, she was so, so effective. She was/is a little legendary around here, plus had great connections in hefty legal circles all the heck all over PA. Pricey also, but you're doing the right thing. Easy for me to say, I know...

When a repeat customer contacts you, telling you you once painted an entire MURAL at the local library for her and you have to go get in the car, drive there and say "Ohhhhhh, that's right, it's only a 12' by 30' mural, I can SEE where it would have slipped my mind". Wowza.

" Well-Known Member ", just saw that Britt, it's excellent! :) I'm SO glad to hear some companies still allow that! Ours used to, then last time the new phones arrived without that option, SOOOO wierd! There's not even the option to buy something for mine, so you DO wonder what on earth would...

Well, I'll have to log out after this but wished to say Thank You. I could have written that and probably will now. The only difference would be that both of my parents faced the bald hurt and dismissal of my sisters together, having been literally told it was just time for them to go die. No...

Welcome to the forum, nice to meet you! I have very little time to be able to be here, so missed your original 'Hi', please excuse. Of course, miss everyone's 'Hi', this would be normal. Please don't worry, pretty sure there are several of us flirting with someday being the Crazy...

You know, here's something else to think about. For what on earth we all pay for our phones, how about a little, genuine SERVICE? I truly, truly do not feel it is being at all picky or witchy to ask a. Do NOT reassign old stalker numbers to new customers ( DUH ) and b. Give us the option to...

GF, do you have something you maybe used to get a huge kick out of, some deep interest? Please don't be frustrated, I think if someone had asked me that question when I was feeling like you are it would have frustrated me terribly and led to MORE despair, like that person wasn't getting it. I...

" Phone Mace " Hahahahahahahahaha! I have to remember that, thank you!!

I'm not a fan. It was wonderful to reconnect with some folks I hadn't spoken with since college, and I got to SEE a few of you folks, that was awesome. I can also go there to catch the latest on photos, etc. that the kids have put up, that's awfully nice. I stopped ( again ) because no matter...

That's ok too, just to give yourself a break on feeling you have to keep your hands on so many, many reins, take a vacation from all the work. Whatever works, be kind to yourself, is the thing. There have to be some bottom lines while we move through all the dreck, that would be a big, fat one...

Here's an idea for the d*m phone companies, GEESH. If someone changes their phone number because they have a STALKER, do NOT give that number to someone else!!!! I actually think folks could hold the phone companies liable for this, especially if something awful happened as a result. My mother...

I know, Gizmo. It's a ton-load of a lot. The thing is, most of it really is already done, it just seems all the more overwhelming because there seems as if it's never-ending. I can just tell you ( as can others ) that you do eventually look back at this dreck with detachment. It hasn't been a...

Ditto on the Welcome Back, Gizmo! I have such a teeny amount of time I can carve out to be here every day, but gosh, it's awfully important time. " Horriblize ", SUCH a great term, gotcha! It's exactly what happens without others to balance the head, gosh. I was only able to ascertain that...

Yep. She still gets a wild hair once in awhile, too, pulls some dumb thing. Once in awhile I'll find myself signed up for one of those ELDERLY dating sites. I'm 54 plus still happily married to her father. So she'll get signed up to receive brochures from luxury drug rehab centers on the other...

Oh, my Brat, wait until your fingers don't work ( don't mean this, it's 'for example.. :) ) on top of dyslexia kicking in on random morning, it's like God telling you to stop worrying so much. The forum folks know perfectly well who is commiting genuine mayhem and who is just flaking out as...

Well, it's not quite true that banks won't let you live beyond your means. Part of our whole collapse in the first place is that we sold our entire population an image of everything 'we' hadddd to have, deserved, and were financed as if everyone were a Hollywood mega-star, so flaunt it. Houses...

Thanks for unloading that, Brat. I SO, so, so much mean that. I personally have a terrible, awful time being able to claim just plain old pain with this stuff. I can write long posts, never truly about the consequences of other's actions on my life because like alllll of us I just simply do not...

I heard an interview with a man who just wrote an entire book on this, and Detroit as a whole. WISH I could remember his name, rats. He's a reporter, no love lost between he and the politicos. Detroits has always been a big, fat mess, contributed hugely to it's own decline. Well heck, 'It' was...

Yes, agreed. I belong to one of the national domestic abuse organisations, am guessing most here will end up with something, or more than one, valuable voices. I have a bug up my nose on elder abuse at the moment, another segment of society with zero voice and no survivers to collect groups long...

Yes, and save your energy for where you see it's most valuable, of course. I can blah blah blah until the cows come home but am not DOING a ton. You belong to something proactive and hugely helpful, please know you have all our respect and support. No acknowledgement required of anything written...
