OK here it is. A challenge and a chance to get outside the box. Let's see if we can get this thread over 100 posts!!!!!!

If you need a hug....say it.

If you are here......say it.

If you are just watching........say it.

If you need to talk or have a question.........do it.

If you feel bad, good, sad, mad, blessed, happy,etc......I think you got it.

I'll start.

I could use a ALL DAY massage. DH gave me a quick one before he left for a convention meetup, but it's not enough. I wish I could get more sleep. Got woken up by a loud car engine about 3 hours too early.

Bill, now you got me watching breakfast club on laptop! Awesome movie of coming of age. Maybe laugh myself back to sleep!

MaryKdau, I guess all the gluten and GMO free diet rage for people with IBS and them stopping eating gluten has been the cure for the IBS for many. Antibiotics can cause so many problems from the killing off of normal gut flora, but are probably necessary at times though. Not fun at all. Hugs

I am here. Not feeling to bad just alone. Trying to establish friends I can communicate with when they or I need to share. A hug would be nice or even a reinforcement that I am in right place to make friends. I have dealt with chronic pain for years and sometimes I feel my life is for naught.

Mom died yesterday. It was the pneumonia from immobility that got her in the end. She got sepsis and quietly died but to my knowledge, she was without distress or pain, I am very sad. I could use a million hugs....RIP Emma...my Mama.

I'm in so much pain, but I'm the caregiver for my spouse with multiple sclerosis. It has now hit her brain (after already taking her legs and eyes). Two times this past month she didn't even know who I was and we have been together for 22 years. I get a little help from a county worker, but she often won't let the worker come over so I am the one who has to do everything now, despite the pain. I don't know how long I can do this alone.

    So mad at Xfinity!  They're trying to charge me $115 per month for the same service I had been paying $50 the last four years. I took the equipment to UPS for shipping and cancelled my subscription today!  Next door was a cookie shop called Crumbl. I had heard of it before but never went in until today. I don't need one more sugar fix, but maybe it will help with my sad) grieving heart....$15...

    I know this is stupid, but after not being able to find a job after graduation for almost two years, I ended up just taking an online teaching job because I couldn't find anything in my field. I was trying to get out of teaching and I feel so devastated. I felt this crushing feeling when I signed the paperwork and when I was in the meetings. I know that sounds so dramatic but it is how I felt. It...
