can we just have a good cry

[usnuzuloose]

Can I join? I've had a rough few weeks with my parents getting really sick. Now I've got it. On top of that I just found out that a really aggressive person is moving to my team at work. I'm a naturally quiet person and tend to get lost behind aggressive people who might not be as good as me but sell themselves better. I actually got laid off for that reason 2 years ago and even though I learned a lot and a much better about self promotion, it's tiring to be in a competition every day. Let the tears begin.

Oh I am also trying to lose weight and I have been stuck at the same weight for days! Feeling lazy and discouraged and starving!!!!!!

I hear you those darn plateaus! Just take it one day at a time. This is for both of your threads

 

[usnuzuloose]

I'm with you, I probably started before you. I may have to put my 2-year-old Lab Nala to sleep. It's really been a crappy day...

It's a Good thing you all don't live in rainy Oregon!! Where the Sun rarely breaks through the Clouds!! lol! lol!

Here is some love , hugs,, and Cheer for ALL!!!

I love my directv watching!! I don't get out much, And the tv has been my eye on the world since I was three and cried my eyes out because Elvis was going in to the Army.

I have Diabetes what a tiring, painful disease! you have to test by sticking your fingers, painful, before you eat anything, then I have to give myself shots of insulin 3 times a day, painful!! So have patience. and share your worry with him! Ask him to try harder for you as you want him around for along time!!

I'm sorry I can't join in with a cry, but I have felt better this week than I have since Christmas! A new med is helping!!

So here is enough Pixie Dust to Help You All feel better!!

Bit of a late comer here- hope you all are doing better! And yes thank you for the invite! Was up late last night for my oldest son who is dealing with the mother of his unborn son being well, you can prob put an adjective in and it would apply. Sniff, sniff, bawling!

Regardless of your circumstances, I hope everyone will be able to find a bit of peace.

I've been needing one as well.

My Dad has given up, he's 92, in Florida and unfortunately, I can't do much since in a moment of nostalgia he gave all powers (medical, attorney & banking) to his daughter by his first marriage (I'm from a second marriage and the families never got along) and she's not talking to me, so I'm at the mercy of his wonderful doctor to call me with updates. My mother passed away in October (2 days before my 50th) and since then he's been depressed and now is refusing to eat and keeps saying that he's at the end of his life.

So my new motto is:
"Lord grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change, the courage to change the things I can, and the wisdom to know the difference."

That is so true but hardest to put into practice!

I'll join you since I've been doing it every day for the last 5, almost 6, months. Someone out there is testing me and my family and I am so ready for it to be over. Do they really want to know how much we can take ??

And yet even when we think we are stretched as much as can be we might be stretched even further. It seems I am being stretched even more than I was a year ago. And god keeps making me go a little further.

Yes I hear you. I was thinking about the saying When a door closes a window opens- but I feel like they are painted shut!
Today our cars got broken into in the driveway. Along with 12 of my neighbors card so it's not even like I'm special

I decided today is going to be cleaning up day. If I'm feeling down I might as well do all the stuff I don't like doing- and just get it done!

To everyone here.

I feel like crying but it's due to frustration more than anything, you know, things that I can't control. I know so many people who are close to me that are down right now and I wish I could take it all away. I wish I could fix everything. Even though I know that everything happens for a reason, it's still hard.

I'm in! I broke my blender last night! It was a gift from my parents 6 years ago, so I was a little attached to it. And feeling everyone on the losing weight and still stuck at the same weight. Big
