High on Water
to you, Wommie...publicly.
I should have realized you were having an awful day. I truly was surprised by you (because I remembered the evil veggie thread) but my posting the potato was over the wall and just put you into a bad light.
I certainly have had my bad days too. And nobody ever did that to me...I feel ashamed.
When I posted that the kitty made me feel "ewww" I was still laughing in spite of it. At home, it's like when someone farts, it's an
EWWWW moment, but we still laugh (because it's just better than crying). I am married to a stomach like that, and even though I still love my husband, it can be very upsetting to watch him spiral downward, watching me improve, and his absolute refusal to even try to help himself. Any of the help he gets, and that I post, is usually because I INSIST it be done, and I have to do it myself TO him.
One of the reasons I come here is as a form of refuge, and sometimes these "nasty and offensive" threads help me to realize that I am not alone in the things that I simply cannot change.
I want to thank V and Cora, too. I really feel for them, and I thank them for wearing their hearts on their sleeve the way they do because they are teaching me something...I thank you all.
