Well said Roxy. Thanks for keeping the peace and being so nice. We all love our lost CKers along the way but it is their choice to leave. I too am glad that Bette came back to us. We love you all.

Re: Here I go again...blowing my big mouth

Thanks, Deb. I appreciate your kind words. CK was my very first message board experience back in 2001. It's hard, at least for me, to get over your 'first love'. I've tried to stay away in the past, but I couldn't do it for long.

Rick is treating me very well. We're getting ready to move into a house in a couple of weeks. I couldn't be happier. Thank you, and I'm sorry for the misunderstanding we had in the past. That's all it was.

Re: Here I go again...blowing my big mouth

First of all..thx for replying bette and congrats on your new house. The house will be bursting with love that you and Rick have for each other...good food....good times with family and friends... Congrats

I have said some things here in the past that I am not proud of. I finally saw the light and came back. That was then and this is NOW. It took me awhile to reply bette..because I wanted to make sure what I am about to say..comes out right....and that it has a purpose for members who may be going through tough times and they ask themselves-"..."How am I going to get through this?" When life throws you a curve ball...I call them zaps...it may be to make you stronger or to test your strength. As you all know...I have a frontal lobe injury..which is memory loss. Half the time when I try and think about the past..I don't know if I am remembering right or not. I just leave it in the good lords hands and he lets me remember things as he knows I can handle them. And when I feel like crying...when I let my wall down as I call it...I talk to the lord outloud and it helps me to cope. Let me tell you a story that I made up in my head. One day a gal went outside her house and was deeply troubled about her life. She turned around and saw this flower that she had meant to dig out days ago, but, never did. Anyway, she saw it blooming and it was so pretty. She was so glad she didn't dig it up and throw it away. She got up and gave it some water and she did something that she hadn't done for a very long time...she SMILED She went back into her house and she thought about that flower that she had meant to dig up and toss away..but, didn't..and now it has bloomed and has turned into the most beautiful flower that she had ever seen. She decided right then that it was time for her to start blooming too and she decided to let the past go and move on with her life. It doesn't mean that she totally forgot the good times as well as the not so good times..it meant that she just wanted to move on and bloom like that flower just did.

Last night, playing backgammon, I made 2 players smile. One player pmd me and told me that I make them laugh and I was beating another player and I told them to post the win because I wanted to go make dinner..that made them smile too. What would life be without smiling...it would be a sad world. Please don't be sad...smile and let your brightness show through.

We all have learned new things from each other..have smiled and cried...and have become a family in our own way. As you all know..my family has disowned me...so the man who I love so very much..my cats and dogs, copykat members and my backgammon friends have become my family and I have moved on...I hope all of you can do the same when life throws you zaps.

P.S. My hon & I do have another couple over to wach a football game and for a holiday dinner...so I am not a TOTAL HERMIT...JUST HALF HERMIT LOL

I understand that I got off topic here...well...a little....but..wanted to make a point Hope this all makes sense to you and I hope I made you smile.

God Bless You All and as Paula Deen says....Best Dishes

People do come and go; boards are not so different.

Is this the part were we hold hands and sing Kumbaya my Lord ? LOL
It's a board, people get along, people don't get along, people come , people go. And if one board doesn't work for you , try another, there are tons out there. Let's not take a message board too serious.
