Thanks, Caprice. I needed the distraction today. I'm struggling and had to reschedule my T appt yesterday because of a little gasoline incident. I'm holding on by my fingernails at the moment. Glad I'll be able to meet with her in a few days. In the meantime...bubbles!View Thread





2. I grew up in what was once my great grandparents home. When I was younger, the flower beds surrounding the house were covered with hundreds of tulips of all colors. I have always loved tulips. I love their simple elegance.
3. Either fresh spring water (a benefit of growing up in the valleys of the Rocky Mountains) or fresh, cool lemonade (the real stuff).
4. There are so many places I would like to travel. New Zealand is definitely one. Currently I going though some serious island withdrawals. I miss Hawaii and would love to visit my friends there.
5. The Secret Garden. I loved the thought as a child of being able to disappear into the safety of my own beautiful garden. No one could get at me there. The thought of escaping into my own outdoor oasis is still a happy thought.
6. Got lots done today. I hope the next few days are as productive.

Who wants to go first? I've got to run, so I'll give my answers a little later.View Thread

The part you are missing is how much you being gone would hurt all of those that love and care about you. Nathan, your mother, and others care about you very deeply. Losing someone you care about like that isn't something you just move on from. They would be filled with sadness and heartache, and would struggle daily with the thoughts of you being gone. There would be a big gaping hole left in their lives that couldn't just be filled in with someone else.
I know you are hurting and miserable right now. Do those things that are nurturing and healing for you- and continue to reach out to those who love you (including those of us on this board). Be gentle and patient with yourself. Hold on knowing, that even though things are dark right now, they will get better.
Please know that you are in my thoughts and that I am sending warm, caring thoughts your way.
