    Thanks Lame Wolf.
    Sandy sorry you're having a hard time. You can always pm us and I'm sure there are others that would rather you pm them than struggle along alone.
  • ys definately pm me if you want x

    Sandy, I know how you feel.

    Was lying in bed last night worrying; wish I'd never even started this thread now. I meant well, and just wanted to be helpful, but if it means people are going to be left high and dry, then maybe I should've kept my nose out of things.

    *sigh* one of these days I'll learn to keep my big mouth shut and mind my own business.:(

  • No, No, No, lw! Please don't feel like that and certainly not to the extent that it disturbs your sleep.
    This thread has helped a lot of people, me included. That's the important thing; what has been done. Don't stress yourself about what may or may not happen in the future please lovey.
    I must go, I have lives to ruin and hearts to break :D

    LW please don't be sorry, I'm sorry I made you feel like that. This thread has been a godsend to me, I don't think I would still have been here if it wasn't for you and others here.
    I have realised I get more depressed before a seizure which I had last night and drinking too much doesn't help. :o
    CG and rachel thanks to you as well.

    I have been thinking about starting my own black dog forum (If I am allowed to say that:rolleyes:) so we can say what we want.

    Sandy, sweetie, you didn't make me feel like that, you just gave voice to how I was already feeling, nothing more than that. Please don't worry.

    I just get the feeling that every time I try to do something, doesn't matter what, it all goes pear-shaped, and I end up unwittingly causing more harm than good.

    Seriously feel I should just crawl back into my kennel and stay there.

  • Right, added to Flylady list today is boarding up lw's kennel so she can only retreat when allowed.
    I can't tell you how much I would miss you if you did that. Am sending happy vibes and 'ugs your way.
    If you hadn't started the thread, there would have been a lot of lost and unhappy people who didn't have the resource to call on. It's a fine and dandy good thing you have done. Now go clean your bathroom *g*

    *sniffle sniffle, blows nose* I did the bathroom yesterday, cos I got in a muddle with the tasks list. (See, I can't even do Flylady without getting in a tangle). So it's the [STRIKE]junk[/STRIKE]spare room for me today.
    Gotta keep busy today, if just to prevent me using up all our clean hankies.
