The Kaleidoscope Which Is My Life - 08/22/03 12:57 PM
Seeing that I needed to get a new thread going (and to make it somewhat easier for those who are going to be at MAL's East Coast Getaway next month), I took the idea from reading my horoscope (Virgo) on the Cainer web site yesterday. It mentioned about a kaleidoscope and how with just a very slight turn, the whole picture changes. Kind of sums up my life.
The tie-ins to my previous threads:
I'm Working on A New Bob, Baby...
It was one year ago yesterday when I started posting over in Newcomers. Although I have grown a lot since that time, my R hasn't progressed a whole heck of a lot...
Who Let the Bob Out - Who, Who, Who, Who...
At KAW's urging, I migrated over to Piecing in early October and stayed with this thread until the end of December. Things were going slowly but surely but we did have our additional stresses of being hit with a very bad ice storm (losing power for five days) and finding out that our beloved dog (who W and I adopted back in 1989) had cancer and would pass on soon.
Do You Smell What the Bob Is Cooking?
2003 began on a very sad note when our dog passed away quietly in the night on January 3 - got some tears when I saw that post again. A few days later I had my telephone consult with Vernetta who reminded me that it was important for Bob to have a life. A few days after that I got laid off from my job - additional stress placed on the R. Also started to post from home so W has been in the position to snoop on my threads if she so desired. To recap, W installed CyberSitter on all of our computers shortly after finding out about the materials in January of 2002 - nothing to report since then. As I mentioned to C at my last session - I do not look at as being cured but it is firmly in check. As long as I recognize the warning signs and take heed, I won't allow it to happen again.
Also saw at the end of that thread a post from LL saying that she wasn't as strong as I was and was going to give up. LL - I am so glad that you didn't give up and aren't giving up now.
It's All That - And a Bag of Chips...
Continuing on from late February to late April - nothing of real note to pass on from there. And my most recent thread:
Am I Chauncey Gardner's Clone?
The thread title was prompted by something W said at one of our last joint C sessions. We celebrated (if you want to call it that) our 12th A, adopted a new dog (who has her own issues... ) and saw me officially become one of the unemployed. Maybe I should have titled this thread "Lagging Economic Indicator."
I agree with what KAW, TS and PnT said recently that I do need to nip this area of contention (the DB Getaway Weekend) now. But W again hasn't been home much for us to really talk. When I do receive some new information from MAL concerning the weekend, I'll make sure to let W know so that I'm keeping things in plain view.
