Evening...

I haven't been in here because I just got my computer back today, I posted through my phone and very little.

Hope this finds everyone okay.

Isadora · 05-27-2010, 12:04 AM

Tonight at the social:

Isa: I walk into the Lexington (a women's bar in SF) and I could have birthed everyone in the bar.

Butch: Ummm Deb, you would probably be Grandma.

Isa: Very true. Heh.

aw! that's kinda mean! i remember when i used to work with teens i told one of them "i could be your mom! if i had been a really careless high school freshman" and then i thought..."ooh maybe that wasn't a very role-model-y thing to say whoops!"

ruthie14 · 05-29-2010, 09:04 PM

Sigh... ok .. my self esteem is suffering. Got a slap in the face (figuratively) tonight. Unintended by the deliverer, but still. Jeeze. Some things I CANNOT change. Just when you think you're getting back on your feet and bringing balance to your life..... someone inadverdently points out some flaw you cannot help. Is she the devil? No .. Just not thinking I guess. Insensative for sure. Makes me mad that I let this stuff bother me. I'm only human and only so much one person can take before it starts to take its toll.

morningstar55 · 05-30-2010, 10:29 PM

Galahad · 05-31-2010, 10:46 PM

I wonder why I can't get to the forums? Anyone else have problems today? Maybe the upgrade is still going on. It's good to see everyone posting again. I miss you all when it's so quiet in here. It's the dentist tomorrow morning for me, and yogurt and mashed potatoes the rest of the week.

Sorry to hear that Galahad. Hope you mend quickly!

EntycingFemme... my Mom used to live In licester.. We used to go to Ashville everytime I visited. Have fun!!

Have a great week Lofters!

Galahad · 06-01-2010, 07:25 PM

Dental insurance is incomprehensible. Extractions are still completely covered but the dentist charges an extra $250. I'm looking for a new dentist.
Ruthie, we are hard enough on ourselves without help from someone else. What can you do? Be kinder to yourself. Give your inner child some love and the pep talk you would give to any of the little guys.

Thanks honey.. Yeah I am trying... been a tough couple of years so my poor inner child is having a hard time. Going to take her to get her nails done tomorrow.... that should help!

Take care everyone

ruthie14 · 06-02-2010, 08:15 PM

Feeling a bit better today. Got my nails done... Pink! Went out with some friends for a while to play bocce. Feeling great about some children's books I read tonight. Makes me wish I wasn't getting out of teaching. The books I read are written by a friend of mine and are excellent! OMG It excites me just to think about them! Maybe I can find a way to do some tutoring with them. That would be good!

Well I started my transition which is a huge change going on.
I'm also moving to another apartment this summer.
Different things are happening.
Take care.
