@Izzie,
Izzie, I sure wish it was better news re: the tummy AND an easy fix. If only life were that simple. I highly recommend hammering frustration out on the piano keys though. It's kept me chugging along for years (poor piano -- always going out of tune).

I don't see you as lacking in self-confidence but I can understand the not always wearing your heart on your sleeve bit -- burying your stresses so they're not always out there for the world to see/comment on. Unfortunately they've taken up residence in your gut. Any chance you could have regular talks with some sort of therapist/counselor at whom you could scream/cry/rant? (You know I just fixed the grammar in that last sentence, don't you?) I mean a total stranger who's sole purpose would be to give you a safe venting place. I've often thought that would be lovely.

(Gotta go to work soon. Will be thinking about you.)

He's telling me to talk - but I can't - not in real life. I just can't. Finding it hard to do here and.... here.



really ... nothing new here.

I think you knew a lot of what you were told.

You are going to have to work on getting help with dealing with the real-life stuff. Talking about the real stuff, dealing with it, where you are. It's not going to be easy by any measure.

If for no other reason, you need to do it for S-boy. You know that.

I wish we could help in a real way, but we can't. You, and a counsellor, in your real space, are the only ones who can.

You're literally eating yourself up alive. It is painful to read about, must be dreadful to experience.

Hiding, by way of literal and virtual travel, isn't going to do it. It'll distract you for a bit, but it's not going to take the place of really dealing with the crahp and how you feel about it.

I wish we could do more in a real way.

Sending you virtual hugs and pillow fluffs.

Yes Beth - I think this too.

Izzie dear - make yourself talk through it. ((Izzie) Love you girl. Lots of wishes and warm healing thoughts and prayers coming your way.

CONGRATULATIONS BARRY! How wonderful!

It's Tuesday. A long one at that.

Getting the kids...going to baseball. Then P90X...yucky.

hugs and kisses y'all

@mismi,
Morning crew, hope all is well on board, Captain having a well deserved rest? Felt like you this morning Izzie, at the medical clinic at 7am for blood test. Bloody nurse couldn't find my vein and used my arm as a dart board, all the pricks put me right off my breakfast despite having fasted since 5pm yesterday afternoon. Smile

Well we'll make up for it today as we will be celebrating Mrs. B best friend's birthday with a nice lunch somewhere. Will drink a toast to the Harbourmaster.

Totally agree with you Harbormaster. I am also a total stranger to the Captain and first met when she joined a2k, yet we get along like a house on fire. Certainly haven't noticed she lacks confidence, on the contrary, look at the great posts she has written here to people she's never met. Izzie you're number one, don't underestimate yourself, we all love you. ((((Izzie))))

Sorry to hear off your colds McTag and Harbourmaster, wish you both a speedy recovery.


Everything Dutchy wrote is true, Izzie. Don't underestimate yourself!

I know.

Can I live with decisions I've made. It's coming to the fore. It's getting harder not to teeter. I've been seeing a counsellor. You get x sessions - the you're meant to fixed. I admit things there I only admit to one another.

If I admit how I feel, or don't feel, I'd be locked up.

Thank you Beth and all the crew.

Sorry. I'm just... crahp, then fine, crahp, then fine. Some big days coming up - R-boy is very unstable. I've no idea what will happen. Waiting. Carrying on with life til the phone rings i gues..

Going to bed now


love you all, thanks each and every one

can't keep eyes open. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I'm coughing a bit better today.

I've got a class this afternoon....should I stay or should I go? If I infect some of the learners, my name will be mud.

I'll go, I think, and issue a warning of quarantine. No hugging or kissing.
