    Joe, best wishes of "Get well soon!" to your wife.

    Everybody else, Starby, Alty, Starty, M, Stringer, Sneezy, Biggie, Guy, Rebbie, and J9, rp, kp, and others coming in here now and then, have a good morning when you wake up:P! or a good day.

    Hum, i just remembered, has anybody seen the clip (on youtube) concerning people slaying a horse? That's disgusting and abobinable!!! And that all happens here, in Mauritius. The responsibles are muslim youngsters. I don't want to offend anyone (firmy) but the muslims here, i don't like them at all. They are supposed to be fasting, and they do that horrible act, and worse, they enjoyed it. They were not supposed to have any form of 'pleasure' and the clip shows the opposite. I myself could not watch it completely, i felt as if i would have vomitted. Animal lovers, i disadvise you to watch it, but if you want to see it anyways, here's the link:

    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SDr_s8AzYfU

    Unky, you're right! I should not have watched that. There has to be something wrong with people like that. That is just SICK! (what Bear said) I couldn't watch it all the way through.

    Unky, I meant to say to you, whatever the heck you said to me in French? I have no clue what you said... LOL I found a new translator toy on Google. I cheated... LOL! You have a good day/night too Unky!

    So, I'm going grocery shopping again today. I need to get some more foods for lunch basically... any ideas??

    Keep in mind I'm trying to keep a very healthy diet, high protein, high (good) fats and relatively low carbs at lunchtime. Any ideas for lunchtime meals?

    I've done tuna for long enough now, I need some more ideas :p

    How about sliced deli turkey, and some fresh veggies on some whole wheat buns, with some low sodium ready to eat soup!
  • Sep 24, 2008, 10:51 AM
    bigbird213

    That's a good idea... I was staying away from sliced meats since I know they could contain a decent amount of sodium, but I guess you have to draw the line somewhere :) I have some good veggies already, I load my salads up with them :)

    Thanks Starby!

    AHHHHHHH! Strange day, don't ask, a bit cafuffled. Ahhhhhhh!

    Somebody tell me a joke, quick, nothing dirty, keep it clean, but funny. :)

    Ahhhhhhhhh!

    Okay, breath, breath, breath, BREATH!!

    Can you define Cafuffled??

    Here you go Alty:

    It was the end of the school year, and a kindergarten teacher was receiving gifts from her pupils.

    The florist's son handed her a gift. She shook it, held it overhead, and said, "I bet I know what it is. Flowers." "That's right!" the boy said, "But, how did you know?" "Oh, just a wild guess," she said.

    The next pupil was the sweet shop owner's daughter. The teacher held her gift overhead, shook it, and said, "I bet I can guess what it is. A box of sweets." "That's right, but how did you know?" asked the girl. "Oh, just a wild guess," said the teacher.

    The next gift was from the son of the liquor storeowner. The teacher held he package overhead, but it was leaking. She touched a drop off the leakage with her finger and put it to her tongue. "Is it wine?" she asked. "No," the boy replied, with some excitement. The teacher repeated the process, tasting a larger drop of the leakage. "Is it champagne?" she asked. "No," the boy replied, with more excitement. The teacher took one more big taste before declaring, "I give up, what is it?" With great glee, the boy replied, "It's a puppy!" SURPRISE!

    LOL! Ewwwww!

    Cafuffled kind of means confused, or out of sorts.

    Everything in moderation Biggie. Do you eat Chef salad, or Greek salad? You can add olive oil and seasoning to your salad. You can get low sodium deli meats too, and add them. The vitamins and nutrients are the most important.

    Do you know what it awesome and healthy? Trust me on this one. Sooooo good! Get a bulb of garlic. Drizzle it with olive oil, and wrap the whole bulb in tin foil. Chuck it into a 350 degree oven for 45 minutes. In the last 20 minutes before the garlic is done, take some cherry or grape tomatoes, and spread them on tin foil, or a baking sheet. Drizzle them with olive oil, and then salt and pepper them. Leave them in for 20 minutes. Get a loaf of french bread, whatever deli meat you like, and some cheddar and mozza cheese. (or whatever cheese you like) When the garlic and tomatoes are done, just squeeze all of the garlic (it will be sweet) from the lrg bulb into a bowl, and add the tomatoes and mash them together with a fork. Spread this onto the french bread, add your meat, and add your cheese, and put them in the oven on broil, and let the cheese melt. (you can also toast up the bread a little bit first if you want by putting it in the oven for a minute while you are mashing)

    It almost tastes like pizza, but soooo much better!. and it isn't hard to do. You might not want to do this at lunch, just because the garlic needs to roast for 45 minutes... but it's an awesome dinner!

    Making me hungry Straby - Stop :)

    I just got out of the gym, about to head to the grocery store, and now I'm hungry... GREAT :p

    Thanks again!

    EDIT: And yeah, I love salad, pretty much all kind of. I like to make up a salad with lettuce, peppers, carrots, olives and grilled chicken.. A little olive oil and balsamic vinegar for dressing and I'm happy :)

    All right then, go get your tea and think... I wish you well.
    AND if I may say so myself, let this "bad" thing turn into a good thing... think think think before we act. As I always say... well, at least the last month it has been my motto. Never say yes when you really mean no. It hurts you and others you are saying it to. Always be honest with your feeling with another person, even if you think it may offend them, be honest, you got to be otherwise it is all for nothing.:) Oh crap Guy, who am I... I am sorry you are hurt, really sorry.
  • Sep 24, 2008, 05:33 PM
    starbuck8

    I'm sorry Guy. I know it hurts! Try and remember that although it's hard, and hurts especially bad when you're young and you're first going through it, that it's meant to teach you things.

    Right now just have your tea, and go through what you need to and should. You're allowed to do that. Everyone's allowed to do that.

    Sorry Guy, it's never fair is it!

    Alty

    Guy, you know me, I'll give it to you straight. :)

    This sucks, it really does, and it hurts, boy does it ever, and, sadly, you'll never forget it. :(

    Good news, you will get over it and feel better. Bad news, it probably won't be the last time. Okay news, the next time it will still hurt, but you'll handle it better.

    This is one of the wonderful bumps in the road of life, and gosh do they come up unexpectedly, and darnit, you always trip over it. Lots more bumps, trust me. Heck, even at my age there are still bumps, and they're still a surprise.

    You're a level headed guy, a good guy, a nice guy, don't let this change who you are, and remember, it's not your fault, but hers. Okay?

    We're here if you want to talk. :)

    Just an update for whom it may concern...

    My wife is feeling better, but still has to take it easy she has been in touch with her neurologist...

    As far as work, took today off, but I missed quite an intense day. Apparently they announced that a deal is in the works that everything is going to move to a knew location so there is a great possibility that our plant is being closed for good.

    Well that is my news for today. Sitting back relaxing and taking it easy...

    Joe, what? What in the heck was going on? Same thing. Tell Proud I say hello, and send her my love and lots of soft hugs. Joe, I haven't been reading back... so I hadn't known. I am sorry I missed this...

    Guy, what Alty says is correct in every way. But you didn't do anything wrong here, if she cheated on you. Not your fault, no guilt.

    And yeah it does suck, my first wife did it on me... and I went through all kinds of self doubt. But I got stronger and I learned some things about myself in the process. I cannot control everything for one... all things that happen to me are not my fault... and that she was not at all what I thought she was.

    Eventually I leaned that I could trust again and that when I did I benefited by finding someone that was much more a woman than my first wife ever was.

    Holy cow. So I was speed-reading the posts to catch up, and somehow got Jesus's story and Guy's story blended, and I had this idea that Jesus's wife was sick and cheated on him.. . so sorry.

    Jesushelper (shortening it to Jesus makes me feel blasphemous), I'm so sorry your wife's sick, but glad she's feeling better. Hope things work out in the end.

    Guy, you know what to do. Hope she cheated on you with some idiot.

    After a breakup we learn a lot of things about people we don't necessarily want to know. That's the reason for the NC approach. In all, none of it matters at this point, hard as it is to realize, you need to start living for yourself, and not for someone who doesn't exist anymore...
