Just wondering if anyone else out there is spending the evening alone. Not necessarily a bad thing. I'm sipping a cappuccino and taking in "A Christmas Story" in the old man cave. I'll be with family tomorrow, but as of tonight, it's my faithful Boxer and me. And Ralphie.
I spent the evening with Baby (my old border collie).
I’ll probably go into town to the truck stop after while and eat some turkey!
Joining in prayer, praise and thanksgiving.
Now that guy is cute, Have a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year joe.....GG
Don't know if that was psychoanalysis or projection -- I have a shadowy clown of my own to battle -- but from what you write I concur with the shrinks you've seen and add that you'd have to be nuts or unconscious not to feel substantial rage, sorrow and mistrust. It's in your hard drive now.
I think it helps to use that knowledge as a filter as you go through life, to know that some of your perceptions may be affected by it and make adjustments for it; intellectual overdrive of skewed emotions. But I think you know this. :-)
Merry Christmas to you!
God Bless you Sal. Am proud to be your FRiend.
In the great scheme of things, I “got lucky” compared to that poor, tragic soul.
Today, my thoughts will be of her suffering, instead.
I have God and Jesus to love me like I should’ve been loved and I have all of FR for my family.
[and all too frequently, I believe I've "entertained angels, unaware", here]
Suddenly, I feel very blessed, instead.
“And I pray for a very happy future for you, surrounded by GOOD people.”
Well, that one’s already been answered.
I’ve got y’all....:)
“that we will rest in the fact that God came to earth as a human to know what it is to be human. To be brutalized, to have our claims ignored, to be punished for making those claims. But He also rested in the fact that He spoke the truth, and that He pleased His Father. And that He knew that one day - He would be victorious. And that we share in that that Victory!”
You have no idea what kind of very intense impact that had on me.
Thank you so much.
Merry Christmas
Merry Christmas to you too, dear Allegra.
[so, didja get the Bucky Balls?]...LOL
Yes, indeed. What a great feeling it is to know that if needed you can go anywhere in the country and find a friend you can trust.
You are a free spirit, brother, I love your style. Have a Merry and Yummy Christmas....and stay well and happy in the New Year.

Well, an outraged mob is currently forming to;
A: hug me silly
B: beat the perp bloody.
Maybe you could all coordinate your travel plans and get a group discount.
:)
“Hogfather.”?!?
WTH???
Yes, it’s a very wonderful, miraculous feeling.
[but a lot of them will be shocked to find a “sister” showing up]...LOL
Enjoy your Christmas, Leni.
God bless.
Shari
Luv Ya.
Merry Christmas!
And a happy and healthy New Year, to you.
I drank a whole bottle but the Cosmoline is still there?
Thank you....:)
Unfortunately, where he and I both live, there aren’t any “city limits” and people are shooting guns all day long, year round here so obviously we have no ‘firearm discharge’ laws....:))
