  1. Thank you very much! Life has changed a lot, that’s for sure. I have about a year and a half left before I graduate, and then after that I’m looking at probably another 5-7 years of “on the job training” as a working professional. So a long way to go still but not too much longer for the degree and that’s exciting.
  2. You did a wonderful thing. I was talking to a patient today and his childhood included pretty much every traumatic, destructive experience you can imagine. When I hear these stories I think gosh, he never even had a real chance to be healthy. And like you said, I look at my chunky little baby who has everything and the contrast is heartbreaking. I hope she’s able to get the long term help she needs and use the resources available to her. Social workers are miracle workers.
  3. I'm so sorry itsallgrand. From my perspective, it's an honor to be allowed to share in your news, good and bad, and I hope this journal will continue to be helpful for you and not an added weight. I'm really glad your fiancé is there for you through all of this. Big hugs. Take care of yourself.
  4. Wow congratulations on the baby and the engagement! I hope the pregnancy goes very smoothly.
  5. Exciting news and may the process be joyful and easy for you. I've benefited from your wisdom and grace on here so much through the years - your child will be so lucky to have you as a mother!
  6. Congratulations on getting married! I'm sorry your sister didn't behave well, but at least you still had a lovely day. It sounds like everything was gorgeous. Where did you go on your honeymoon? Enjoy the rest of your time off before going back to work.
  7. I love this one too. It reminds me of that book you made way back in the day. You could sell this to Asti for her bedroom!
  8. I love the art but the message worries me - hope you're ok! I agree with CC - very cool looking. I'm picturing it on a T-shirt sold at Urban Outfitters! Very nice.
  9. Oh my god those pictures are AMAZING! I'm in this East Coast snow storm as well, enjoying watching the snow fall from my window. I love winter weather!
  10. Just had a real low point, but managed to cheer myself up. Yay!
  11. Feeling really sad right now. You're so close, but so far from me, with someone else. I keep hoping you'll call to apologize, at least, but you'd rather hole up like a coward. What a waste of four years, honestly.
  12. Today's not such a good day. Not doing well on the school front, and sorely tempted to write to you. Trying to resist because I know it won't end well. Can't believe you haven't even been tempted to get in touch with me (or maybe you have been tempted). Feels like a big slap in the face that you don't care. And, in the irony of life, I got to throw the crap you gave me right back into someone's face, who didn't deserve that at all. Made me feel terrible. What I said to him was similar to what you said to me - that you're sorry but you just don't care enough. Ouch. Can't believe you could feel the same way about me as I do about someone I've known for about 5 minutes. Why can't YOU be in love with me?! But I don't know that I would even take you back if you came back to me now. Actually, screw that, I probably would, not because it would be a good idea, but because if I rejected you then I could only have myself to blame, and I don't deal well with responsibility. Oi. I don't know what it's going to take for me to snap out of this rut I'm in.
  13. It's amazing. You really know how to make me feel like doodoo, an absolute nothing.
  14. Typical, just typical. I mean, really. Right now I'm just laughing at myself and shaking my head. You would never have been the man I wanted you to be. I think I finally get it now. Every time we've been in contact since the break-up, that's the lesson I learned. And I've persisted, but I keep getting the same BS back. I get it. I do.
  15. I'm reading Love in the Time of Cholera, by Gabriel Garcia Marquez. I've read two other books of his (Chronicle of a Death Foretold and One Hundred Years of Solitude), and I'm loving this one as much as I loved the others. Bought it yesterday and am already half-way through!
