Midnight: Why is appearing in e-mail not yet necessary?
1 a.m.: Why is Jamie still suffering so?
2 a.m.: What is going on in Rick's life?
3 a.m.: Why is Marilyn not joining us?
4 a.m.: How long before one gets carted off with little to no sleep?
5 a.m.: How will I justify my existence today?
6 a.m.: How will I start my book about LTT?
7 a.m.: Where is my treadmill?

Midnight: We are only posting in this thread, at least for now.
1 a.m.: How, how, how can we help Jamie.
2 a.m.: He won't tell us, gives us no clue.
3 a.m.: She prefers one on one to a group.
4 a.m.: Could be any day now.
5 a.m.: Will call brother and not lecture; cheer son and daughter if they call.
6 a.m.: Already wrote it at LTT.
7 a.m.: Can't live without it. Jumble puzzles are piling up, no good dopamines in the head.

Rick, our dear tech wizard: Can you see the DenverPost.com on line? Check out Denver & the West, second article below first on right. Will check out your link.

Oh I see, Sir Lancelot is back. Chivalry is alive and well.

Is it the front page or business page ? I am not seeing it.
Do you mean the accident or the shooting?

It is not front page, nor business, but Sec. B called Denver and the West. It is a shooting and possibly an accident. Imagine the trauma for the surviving twin. Beyond imagination.

Checked out your link. Heather is absolutely remarkable in her dedication to help. It is still mostly Greek to me. Can read in there, so maybe I'll be a reader instead of a blabber mouth. I have the impression that most communiction occurs privately of which I was never a fan, though I can see its merit here and there.

Am perfectly comfortable here. Maybe we can help Jamie here. Doubt that's possible there. At FB there are some people with whom she had differences (or they with her). And if it is all private, may as well stay here. You know, it was the 3 of us for some time, esp. you and Jamie relating to one another. There also were some fun times. If I had access to the "book" on LTT, I'd find the threads and posts. Jamie is a good, witty person besides having issues. She is also lovely and giving and loving. I wish she had PM'd me at LTT. Believe we could have averted what happened.

Hi Tina Petunia and Rick,
I am NOT suffering so. I am SO happy. I just found out today that I am being considered for a part time position at the hospital, I am on all sorts of benefit committees and just signed up for guitar lessons. My piano is being moved into my condo on Saturday and I'm happy.

I ordered Dr. Keith's new book on Amazon already. It's coming out January 4th, and it will be fun to read it. I just got home from the hospital and am starving, so I'm going to go make soup.

I love you guys.
PS
I sent Marilyn a link to this page, so hopefully she will join in.
PPS
I love you guys. Oh, did I already say that?

PPPS
I am not getting email notifications, but maybe I will now.

Love,
Jamie

Jamie, dearest, I recall similar pronouncements on LTT and then..........Here too there are several contradictions which I will leave to Rick if he is inclined to notice them. He has more credibility.

With just a few chords on the guitar you can learn some songs to sing for Julie's class. The kiddies will love it. I did it when I taught preschool.

Soup is the best. Most anything I make turns into soup regardless how it starts out. Did not know about Dr. K's new book. Will look into it when it is out.

It was a hard morning. Niece called to tell me brother had another--whatever--and is in the hospital. I spoke to him there. This time it seems he had a TIA (mini stroke) very much like ones I've had. Could not control myself on the phone. He is so sweet, stoic, accepting of fate. I'm not like that. Will not put up with all he's had to deal with. Wouldn't even bother with the hospital to begin with. Told him, "Get out, get out." Hope he'll be back in his place tomorrow, otherwise he'll be stuck for the weekend. Maybe there'll be better news tomorrow.

Love you...........Tina

Tina Petunia,
I do leave out the difficulties of my marriage, and the fact that I can only live in the moment with Brooke, not the past and not the future, but I want to focus on the good things happening with me, because last year at this time, I didn't have any real life friends, I didn't have volunteer work, I didn't needlepoint, and I wasn't learning new hobbies.
So, I have come a long way, but yes, my marriage is in a process of either going one way or the there. I work on it weekly with my psychiatrist, and it will take time for me to know what I want. I want to be happy, and I am making all of the changes in MY power to be happy.

I've also visited with a friend in Florida and have dinner and lunch fairly/sort of regularly with another long lost friend, so I am really trying.

Love,
Jamie
PS
I also have a Yoga buddy now, and we are going to start Yoga in January.

Yay, new people! Welcome

Hi P&P thank you for the welcome.
Jump in anytime.

Tina, I am with you in staying out of the sick house. I am of the thinking they like spending money with all their hi dollar toys. It is very hard to understand which came first the ambulance chaser or the accident.

The shooting thing doesn't add up, maybe they will get the facts. It surely is a nasty thing to endure.

Jamie, I was in agony thinking I upset you, not going onto page 4 and seeing your post until now. I felt what I had said was all wrong. Now I looked at e-mail and there were the entries I had missed otherwise. Lucky I had changed that Notification indicator.

You are doing so much to help yourself. Focussing on the good things is exactly right. My image last night, going to sleep (or trying to and failing) was of you at 115 lbs. and eating that stuff whatever that is. I won't go on about what that said to me. And, I guess, also the Ambien, though surely no lecture from me. No lecture from me ever. Just so want your well-being for yourself and Brooke and Julie. I can rest easier now. We'll talk about the many terrific steps forward you mention.

I also felt awful in what I brought up with you, Rick, re the newspaper. What was the point of that? What was I thinking, or not thinking?

Now all is, thankfully, well. Can meditate peacefully. Love you both.
