Things have been a bit slow around 2000 lately, so I'm wanting folks to check in so I know they're ok...
Judy and the baby, Greg and the baby, Tina, Cam, Susan, Phil, Rach, Allison, Coral....who have I forgotten (dang this 50 year old memory).
A simple "here" or "present" (depending on whether or not you were a dork in school) will do unless there is more to report. Aqui will also work.
And, as always, a call to Harry B., who I still miss great big bunches.

Sharp.s. didn't mean any offense with the dork thing; I was dork, geek, goddess, and good time all rolled up into one in school...8-)

Hi Shar,
Things are actually calm for a change, Gabrielle is a crawling machine and my son has a week until school starts. I'm looking into an aide dog, and the lady who was recommended for pups has a litter due Oct 3rd- the sire is a cream golden retriever from Britain and the mom is a golden that comes from a line of service dogs. So I'm pretty excited about that- probably I'll get the pup in December and then training starts a few weeks later. I'm tapering off of meds and putting more energy into therapy (2x a week). My goal is to have control of my moods and I hope the dog will help with my panic and agoraphobia. How are you??? Take care, judy

Didn't Harry B. abruptly announce that he was leaving the board without giving a reason? I think this was after he and some other Babblers met Dr. Bob, who was attending a conference. He'd posted some pictures of those who met, so maybe he still has a web site. It would take a lot of searching through the archives, but his URL might be in there.

Thanks Judy. How is your little one? Snuggle her up for me. I am not here much. Sometimes I lurk and think about you guys and pray. It is really hard for me to post. Today I read a little bit and got my buttons pushed - and I don't even believe in allowing my buttons to be pushed! Perhaps it is hypomanic irritability. OTOH, the current stressors might cause any person to be on edge. My daughter hasn't decided whether to keep her baby or not and her rapist is still on the loose (protect your daughters)! My husband and son are, well, that's classified. I get tears in my eyes everytime I think about them and hope to see them safe and sound soon. If this sounds tagential and disjointed that's because it is. You've always been so kind.
Blessings,
Chris A.

It sounds as if you have a LOT going on. I hope you're getting support- therapist?, family, minister or friends? I completely understand if you don't want to write about what's going on with your husband and son- but my prayers are with them. What a tough situation for you and your daughter - it sounds like she has a very difficult decision to make. But I know you must be very supportive and I'm sure she will do what's right for her and her child. Please take care of yourself- judy

I be here! Talk about "old" memories ( now this is a conundrum) I don't mean memories of things past, and I don't mean memories of old people... I mean people who may (or not) have memory issues, due to meds, stress, afflictions, ....
crips. Now I forgot what I was going say!xoxoxoxo

Thanks, Sweetie....
Yes, things are going well. The depression is non-existent, but I'm on hyper-vigilance right now. The three deaths in our family occurred in the fall and I'm very anniversary sensitive. Yesterday was the date of my father's death nine years ago. Don't know why it hit so hard this year, but it did. We've talked about tears before and I'd love to cry a gusher but my "tear control mechanism" goes on instantly when the tears bubble to the surface. It's like the seatbelt. If you jerk forward too fast, the seatbelt locks into place. Same thing. So I get to cry my normal three tears . . .
