abbi normal "Putting on the Ritz" with Dr Frankenstein

Finally posted last night after a weeksmiley - erm
Not a new habit I am enjoyingsmiley - wah
Not getting much done,reading h2 a bit but not keeping up on reading either.

Waiting for surgical vs other unpleasant choices and decisions.
I am just plain scared to try another experimental nuerological medication.
Maybe I will change my mind, maybe not, for now I am listening to my inner voice that is screaming NO!
Twinny is pretty ok but could be a whole lot better , also waiting results on studies.
Several sad family notes, not up to reviewing them here and now.

I have especially enjoyed reading new people to me =
FF smiley - bunny
and Wilma (brillant postings IMO)smiley - ok but have not said hello . Just thougth I'd mention themwho knows they may peek here. I did add a couple of friends for reading , hope I said something, meant to. I would like to add FF and Wilma but may take a while to get around to asking them!

Please yell smiley - cross *get off my list lurker!* if neccesarysmiley - ok
Or better yet smiley - winkeye you can add me.
It is just easier to work from my page.
I'm certainly not trying to be a smiley - diva or exclusive, dismissive,intrusive , insulting or revoltingsmiley - biggrin

The site worked so poorly when I was doing better for a coupl eof hours that it added to my frustrations. I am trying to decrease frustrations.

Many others I reguarly talk to for years, I have not forgotten, following and wishing I was able to say more. Emails have been helpful! Thanks to those emailing mesmiley - hug

Not a lot of good to say about the things going on in my country so being quietly sad. I hope the country comes to their senses as a whole. Freedom will not ring true until the truth rings louder. I am truly in shock about the amount of shameless and blatant lying at the top, the middle , the bottom and the press.....
*still has a child lock on fox news*

Till we meet again,I'll be missing you all.

Always good to hear from you Abbi, and sorry that things are so hard smiley - hug

I reckon if it makes things easier put people on you friend's list without telling them. You could put a note on your PS explaining that it's hard to get to asking sometimes (that way if people wonder why they're on your list they'll see when they come to your PS and you won't have to put off adding people until you are able to visit them).

Do you want the guideML for showing the list of people that have you on their friends list? The list would appear after your friend's list.


I'll have to check out FF and Wilma now too smiley - ok (think I've seen Wilma round the place).


I'm using 'making things easy' as my daily meditation, in the sense of if things are going to be difficult (which they are) then every opportunity to make anything easier is a blessing. The DMN support issues thread gave me a lot to think about, plus I had a wake up visit to my GP about my situation (which I'd been ignoring). So thank-you to you for your help and grace in that thread. You're such an inspiration to be dealing with your own struggles so honestly *and being willing to assist and care about others.

Hi Abbi. It's good to see you again. I figured, when I didn't see you for a while, that your absence was due at least in part to the annoyance of all of the server errors. It's not worth getting your blood pressure up over. I may need to spend less time at it as well.

I will send you an email sometime during the next couple of days, but please don't feel a need to reply if you're not feeling up to it.

Meanwhile, take good care of yourself. My thoughts are with you, hubby, Twinny, and any other family who needs them. smiley - hug

smiley - biggrin Good to hear from you abbi!smiley - hug Altough sorry to hear about the less-than-favorable circumstanes.smiley - erm I've had a bit of trouble with the site but not really all that much. I guess the computer has really taught me perseverance(especially since being accepted as an ACE-I feel obligated to be here a fair bit) - as 'our hosts' would say "stiff upper lip'n'all that!" smiley - winkeye

Best ofsmiley - goodluckon the medical front, whatever you decide!smiley - hugI know from experience, it caan be scary & I'm sure even scarier with experimental drugs, which I haven't had any real experience with.

I've only 'bumped into' wilma a few times on the Word Association thread. But I've been staying in touch with FF/fundamentallyflawed/'fundy'(as amy p. & I call her)for awhile. I'm sure she'd be ok with you adding her to your friends list. Also I had been meaning to let you know about a newbie from Oklahoma that I welcomed...last week - nounzen, U2550907 . She's fifty & disabled due to a work-related injury.

Abbi-wooh!smiley - magic Hell; i have been worrying about you 'cos you haven't been on for ages; reassured a couple of days back that you were OK by Smurfles & now you are here; i couldn't get onto hootoo at all yesterday, not 'cos of ham(p)ster probs but simply 'cos of RL chaos (see EYE thread!)

I think everyone on here knows that sometimes quietly lurking is what you need, rather than posting massively; just take it easy love & get the medical stuff you feel is best for *you*; we are all still here & thinking about you.smiley - hug

I will email if it's easier for you; i didn't mainly 'cos i always seem to end up whinging about my own stuff & didn't want to put you into "Auntie abbi" mode when i know you are low right now.

take care, special friend, squeak soon.

smiley - love

Hi Abbi, I didn't email you yet because I have been under the weather and spent most of the weekend lying around on my duff. smiley - erm Sorry. I've been thinking about you a heck of a lot, though, and I hope the warm and loving thoughts have made it your way and offered you some solace.

Take care, friend. I will be in touch again soon.
