Hey group. I just want to say hello. I just joined the site. I'm still learning how to set up everything. Lol. Feel free to take over for me, and do it. Lol. I'm just playing. I've had a really bad two or three years, of just devestating stuff, and I've been holding it all inside, and I don't want to have another breakdown like I did a couple of yrs. back. I want/need to talk to real people who can relate to me, and hopefully befriend me, and help me. I'm a very caring person, as well, and a great listener too. I have walked down some pretty rough paths before in my life, therefore, I don't believe in judging people. Until you've walked a mile in someones shoes, much less their minds, you might not jusge so harshly if you knew about them, and what all they have really went through. So..I could definately use some, hopefully kind, people in my life right now, to honestly make it through this storm. Their will always be storms. But I'm majorly stuggling with this one, and it's hurting my heart like heck. Anyways, I look forward to becoming a part of this community, and getting to know some people. I have a first question. How do you choose an Avatar? lol. Little Moments.

Hey, Thanks so much for your response E-Man. Yeah, unfortunately I know all about then NOW! I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but when people sometimes say to you "I know your a strong person. You can handle this too"!! Or similar sayings, do you sometimes just want to say, or at least think in the back of your mind..."Well, I don't feel like being strong right now. I know I AM, and everything, but that doesn't mean I always am. Because, honestly...I'm not right now. So you be strong for me right now. K?" Lol. I mean, some things are so devestational, you don't feel strong all the time. You feel Helpless. Have an awesome weekend, E-Man. And thanks again for your response. It felt great getting one so fast. Take care-Dorrie

Hi Dorrie! Welcome! Glad you found us! This is a great place to interact with like-minded people. Looking forward to seeing you around!

PS: It's possible you might need to make a minimum of 10 posts before you're able to access features such as uploading an avatar etc. I can't remember exactly, but I know there is a minimum of posts needed for certain functions such as private messaging. So if you can't upload an avatar yet, just make a few more posts and that should sort it!

Thank you tailspin!! I did read somewhere about the 10 post thing. Boy, that sounded eliquent didn't it? lol. You will find, that I'm not trying to be funny, nor take ANY OF THIS funny at all. For me, personally, I do add a comical line every once in a while to keep from crying. I'm soo glad and overwhelmed that I havent been on here but a few hours, and have already recieved responses. It makes me wish I would have done this many many months ago. But, I'm here now. I'm glad too. The holidays are very hard this year. And they have always been so great. I'm used to going through depressing situations. And I dont say that, to gain pity, as I mentioned before. I'm just telling it like it is. But this is such a different kind, and i'm handling it a lot "less stronger", than my friends and family think I am. Anyways...thank you so much, again. And yes, it will feel GREAT to finally interact with like-minded people. I look forward to seeing you around too. And I look forward to being around. Especially, due to people like you, who have responded so kindly. Lord knows, theres enough "Bad People" out there. It's nice to be around some good ones!! Right?? Take care, and have a great weekend. Little Moments

Hey there. Just a quick hey to see how you are. I have a little 7 yr old running around in circles of a kind I've never seen, so excited about Christmas. He makes me things at school, and wrote me a Mom's Christmas poem, and I cry tears of joy. Don't think I don't have endless love from him. Sometimes hard through the trials and drama, not expected this yr., but I will do the best to put on my "I'm Great Face". Must have picked the wrong face. lol. Take care now, Dorrie
