- Okay Everyone - I said in the beginning we would try to accommodate everyone if possible. I have received several responses (about 14 altogether) and many have mentioned dates they can and cannot come. Some people have responded just to me.At this...
- I feel like maybe I should just give up and take a long walk off a short pier. In the last few months I've lost my husband, my job, (feel little hope of finding another), my family, (except my mother), my friends, my fish all died, told my dog...
- Okay - Chicago/Indiana get-together. I tried to come up with what was the most desired weekend with the most desired spot of the group that have responded and the consensus is to meet at Indiana Dunes the weekend of July 10th. So - anyone want to...
- How to handle those who bring you down was a great discussion response - and it was funny but I was thinking some of the exact same things yesterday. But - my question is - how do I handle those who I haven't seen or spoken to in quite a long time...
- After my husband died in ICU they handed me his belongings and told me to sit down and wait because I had to talk to the Chaplain before leaving the hospital. I sat down feeling in shock - when he walked into the hospital 8 days earlier I assumed...
- Right now it seems we have 10-12 interested in getting together in the Chicago area. Everyone who has responded so far has said that the weekends of July 10th or July 17th are good.The idea of going to Indiana Dunes was suggested - and so far...
- We have 9 or 10 who are interested in a get-together in Chicago. Im posting this again to see if anyone else is interested before we begin making plans. Were going to plan something for the summer that will be (hopefully) good for everyone. If...
- Any American Idol fans? These last few weeks in particular have been tough for several reasons but one bright spot for me has been American Idol. Lee DeWyze is from my "small town" of Mt. Prospect and works at the paint store in town. We were so...
- Philly Cook Out - So Cal BBQ - Sounds like fun.Anyone in the Chicago area want to plan a get-together?
- Just a few thoughts on what helps get me through these times. When I was growing up my father often said, Whenever I feel sorry for myself or wonder why me? I think of Midge. Midge was my mothers only sister. She died last year at 85. Midge got...
- Ive tried so hard to make things ok and think maybe I should give up. In the last year my husband and I lost a total of 3 FT and 2 PT jobs. Im working 2 jobs and a month ago was taking 2 classes also, along with being the only family around to...
- It seems just about everyone has a picture but me. Every time I go on the site I think "I should have a picture here too". I am clueless as to how this all works.
- Yeah - Easter is coming. I invited my daughter's Godparents for dinner. We don't see them often - they're always busy. I wonder why he can't squeeze in a little time for me - but the one time we were going to meet for dinner he stood me up. I...
- One yr ago I was working 1 full time and 3 PT jobs and still had lots of debt. My husband was knocking himself out trying to sell mens clothing but for the last 7 yrs was making about half of what he used to. At xmas 2009 he developed cellulites in...
- Has anyone else lost friends? My husband died two months ago and most of my friends have not emailed or called since then. My neighbor across the street who stayed with me at the hospital every day for 8 days didn't talk to me for 6 weeks. My...
