Leaves fresh coffee, orange juice, tea, scones, muffins , bagels and fruit for all to enjoy....


Sending out good thoughts and prayers to any or all who may need them
 
Continued good thought towads Oman and Jenny, good to hear that for now things look good!
 
The more time I spend online, the more I seem to be discovering my gift for alienating those around me by opening my mouth and speaking my mind, or at least what I have that passes for a mind. :(

I really need to learn how to not care about what people say to me, and how to shut up once in a while.

There's nothing wrong with speaking your mind

Maybe just being more selective about which rocks you want to chip your pick on would make things easier. I just avoided a protracted discussion on another board just a few minutes ago because at the last second before clicking the send button I thought, this isn't worth the time it's going to cost me.

And sometimes it's not you speaking your mind that's the problem. Too often it's other people who aren't willing to let others speak their mind. They get too defensive too fast trying to protect themselves from another point of view.

Just some thoughts.

I too am multitalented...........I can talk and piss people off at the same time :D And of course, I have never been guilty of speaking another's mind rather than my own......one of the things I have learned is to choose your battles. There will always be closed minded idiots and you will always have an opinion..... not all idiots are worthy of your opinion.

I agree with Happy about it generally being the other person not listening, but rather thinking of what they will be saying while you are saying your piece. We all love ya just the way you are :kiss:

InLust, honors grad. WoW!

More like "InLust, honors grad.......and?" While I was chatting with the person over the resume, I was told that while I had been successful in the academia environment, employers consider that a "soft skill". I don't know, but it seems to me that anyone that can handle school, working, and all the crap life throws at ya and still come out on top, is pretty adapt at getting the job done. Oh well, that touch of gold is gonna look mighty fine in the pics and I am having the press released framed.......sometimes you just gotta celebrate the small things alone ;)
 
Wondering what happend to the last couple of pages? It appears the index is a bit flaky this morning. Anyway, if anyone can actully read this, Morning all.

Anyone got anything going for Valentine's Day? Given it falls on Monday this year, probably be alot of stuff going on today. I thought I had a Valentine this year, but just didn't pan out :( So I'll be spending the day like any other; work, school, more work. But I am gonna be wishing everyone here Happy Valentine's Day :heart:
 
WOW

:rose:

Prayers and good thoughts DO work! I am overwhelmed with all the good blessings you TCers have thrown my way!

Thank you so very much! It means a lot to me that Oman has a place to vent his feelings (he appears "strong" on the outside), and we both are very thankful to have friends like you, keeping us in your tboughts and prayers and meditations.

Although it's been a rough week, I have a great medical team behind me, and I'll definitely be following up to make sure things remain good.

Thank you ALL again, and Happy Valentine's Day (a little early).:)

Hon, we are just happy as can be that things turned out.....You and Oman are the beacon of light for all us "hopefuls" :heart:
 
- It took me 5 bloody minutes to remember my password so I could log in to the new-look forum. I haven't needed it in over a year here.

- I see they've now got a forum where I can't alter the size of the print by holding down the Control key and playing with the roller on my mouse. Boooooo.

- Screw Bob Goodnow, Gary Betmann, and everyone else involved in the farce that the talks between the NHL and NHLPA have been for the last year. Congratulations on becoming the first pro sports league in the enitre world to lose an entire season to the stupidity of lawyers.

- And on a more important note, good to hear from you Jenny that you are doing okay.

- Everyone have a Happy Valentine's Day

I want the old forum back!!!!!!! Been 9 hours of no Lit, and now this!!!!! Yuk! Oh well, guess I can't complain too much....this doesn't cost me $$$ or time :rolleyes:
 
Wooo Hooo, Fancy Smancy....Nigel and I just oooh-ed and ahhhh-ed over the new software. :D I haven't played around long enough to form an opinion but it explains all of the problems last night and Lit being out of commission today.


Jenny -- its wonderful to see you post. I have been thinking about you, hoping good thoughts for your well being, and wishing Oman all the strength he needs to be positive. My best to you both.

Happy Valentine's Day to you all! :kiss: :heart:



Confession:

*Originally J. was going to be here this week visiting and was to arrive Friday afternoon. Well Thursday I got a call from him telling me he had to postpone his trip as he had been having horrible headaches, until he finally had one that sent him to the doctor. They are concerned and are running more tests on Monday. And I am worried. :(
 
Anyone know if we can change our layout? I can deal with all the new bells and whisles......but I really liked the other layout *pout* And the damn type is too small to read comfortably.

Confession: I don't deal with sudden change well
 
Well I guess I'll get used to these changes....upside is as vanilla as it looks I could actually log on at work :)

Note to SS: The group at TN is asking about you....be nice if you dropped by and reset your "stranger" status.
 
Wow, you step away for a few days and everything changes!

I've been poking around a bit, and Lusty you might like the chocolate skin. It shows the AV and users info on the left of the post. The font is still kinda small though.

Adding to the well wishes for Jenny, and strength to both her and Oman. Hope you continue to get good reports from the doctors.

Peace and happiness to everyone. :heart:
 
Let me add my congratulations to the list of well-wishers, you two.

Still here if you need anything.

J

You are correct! Looks like they added a few more layouts after I gave up and called it a night.....I'll get used to it, guess there isn't any choice :)
 
Morning all and Happy Valentine's Day :kiss:

Gonna take a bit of getting used to this new and improved look, am I the only one that noticed that ages are now displayed with location info? They aren't always correct, but they are there. I also noticed the field "Reputation" (at least on the chocolate layout).....man, that could be fun ;)

Appears the lost pages may be gone forever.....sorry Happy, guess that evening is our little secret :kiss:
 
Thank you all for your continued thoughts and prayers. Like Ive said before, I cant find enough words to express my gratitude!

Now,on this special day,I want to do a confession!


JENNY


I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you're around

Ooh, baby, when I see your face
Mellow as the month of May
Oh, darling, I can't stand it
When you look at me that way

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down
I feel my heart start to trembling
Whenever you're around

Oh, darling, when you're near me
And you tenderly call my name
I know that my emotions
Are something I just can't tame
I've just got to have you, baby

I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down, tumbling down
I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down
I just lose control
Down to my very soul
I get a hot and cold all over
I feel the earth move under my feet
I feel the sky tumbling down,
Tumbling down, tumbling down...
 
*sigh*

looks like i need to post more.........or at least get on lit more often!!

not sure i am 'in to' the changes, but change is good ....... correct?

hugs and red roses to everyone on this great day of love! :rose:
