    Love the mascot, that's me in the morning. I also forgo the slippers, and socks, bare feet for me, the cold floor is the only thing that wakes me up.

    Good morning coffee buds, another beautiful morning. Yawn.

    Not so beautiful... sadly.

    Slept at 430am.

    Woke up at 7am.

    Weather's muggy.

    Woke up with a backache (god I must be getting old)

    My dog threw up all over her bed. This means my room smells like vomit.

    Nothing a cup o joe can't fix I guess.

    I always love the sound of the dog puking in the middle of the night, that's when I turn to my husband and say "remind me to put on my slippers tomorrow morning."

    I'm sorry that your day isn't bright and shiny Sneezy. I should have stayed up talking to you last night, my 13 year old dog was barking at nothing until 3am, that's when I finally fell asleep, up at 6:45am, I'm tired, exhausted, the dog is napping. I really want to go bark in his ear right now, let's see how he likes it.

    Were's our HChicky this fine morning, not back from Sneezy's house yet?

    She was still sleeping... made her breakfast + left. Hope she gets the flowers.

    HC: in all seriousness... I'm not a creep.

    LOLOL!! Wow...

    Wow...

    F4U, this is twice I'm speechless... wow...

    You all have such deep talks when I'm gone...

    Speaking of me being "gone"... Yes, Sneezy, I did get the flowers, you're so sweet. And that breakfast? Wow... ;)

    (yikes... I need more coffee... wow... )

    Oh, Alty, I was a occupational therepy - car accident last year left me with a lot of pain in my wrist... long story... lol... that is after the beautiful breakfast and sunny flowers... ;) )

    Yay, my match making worked. Big pats on the back for Alty. Proud look on my face.

    I need some advice my friends. I was up all night thinking about something, something in my past that I've only shared with two people in my entire life. I think I'm finally ready to talk about it. I've written a post on Microsoft, the spell check is done, all I have to do is post it. Wow, I'm crying just thinking about it. I know that I need to do this, but I'm scared. I need some support. Tell me what to do.

    Oh Alty, if you need advice, we're here. If you post it, I'll comment on it. If you PM it, I'll answer.

    I'm here for you...

    Ditto for me.
  • Mar 18, 2008, 07:53 AM
    Alty
    Thanks you two. I just don't know what everyone's reaction is going to be. I'm scared that you all won't be able to get past what I tell you and that you will not be able to put it aside.

    I will post it, I need to, I hope that you will all still be here after reading my post.

    Can't type, to many tears.

    Alty.

    Dear, Darling Alty... the one thing I've learned through life is that the past is just that, past. Our past doesn't define us, it has made us who we are... the strength of character, height of resolve, dedication to verity all come from the circumstances and heartaches that we have been through. It doesn't matter what you've been or done, we know you as you. A true, caring, thoughtful, sweet, amazing woman with a heart full of compassion and truth.

    And nothing, absolutely nothing will change that. You will always be that person in our eyes. If nothing else, whatever you post from your past, it will make us respect you more from what you've come through.

    My dear, sweet Alty, we will still be here after you click Post.

    Sweet Alty, we are here to help, I think you should post it. We won't judge and it may help a whole lot to just get it off your chest. I wish for you peace, and if you can get it by posting what you wrote, then so be it! :) ;)
    Morning everyone... coffee, YES!

    I should have known that you would all stand behind me. The fact is, I finally found the strength to tell my story, largely because of all of you. It's time that I let it out, I've kept it in for far to long. After all this is a help desk, I just find it really hard to ask for help, I'm much better at voicing my opinion than asking for an opinion.

    Thank you all. I posted it, so there's no turning back now. I need a tylenol, all this crying has given me a headache.

    You, my dear sweet Alty, are an inspiration. I've written you a post/letter, but know this...

    ANYTIME you need someone, I'm here. My arms are open, my couch is comfy, and my coffeepot stands ready. I'm serious. I'm here.

    Coffee's on the house today... as much as you can drink. I'll even throw in some of those blueberry scone-y thingies with the little sugar granules on top. :)

    OOo... scone...
  • Mar 18, 2008, 08:24 AM

    Yup, scones are fresh out of the oven and go wonderfully with my blend of the day :)
  • Mar 18, 2008, 08:26 AM
    ISneezeFunny
    ... how'd you have time to make scones?

    ... didn't you JUST leave my place?

    ... did you LOCK my doors?!
  • Mar 18, 2008, 08:30 AM
    Alty
    What is the blend of the day? I'm having 7 eleven brand coffee, it's better than you think. Scones, Mmmm, I'd prefer donuts though.

    By the way, sorry for putting a damper on the coffee hour. I can't begin to put into words the gratitude I feel for all your kind words.

    HChicky, that offer goes both ways. My home is always open dear sweet friend. Thanks, I don't know what else to say, just, thanks.

    Back to the coffee. I'm on my 3rd cup and counting. I think it's a two pot kind of day.
