You have such a beautiful boy.

Hi! I wanted to invite you to a couple of my post about the election because I have seen that you have intelligent questions and responses.

Hi Gimli!
Thanks for the shout. I put myself on your friends’ list…

That was the best read I have had for weeks! :D

Hiya…I’m alright I guess. Trotting along. Had a good weekend so not currently feeling low, but we’ll see how it goes I guess. How are you? xx

Hi Gimli!

“I guess I’m trying to concentrate more on BEING a Christian than SOUNDING like one!”

I liked that.
Very much.

I want a hellfire and damnation speech :D I’ve never had one of those before!

i’m quite scared of you now :P i never realised you were so high up! are you a scary pastor?

You’re a church leader? I didn’t know that! What kind of things do you do?
You’d probably be very popular if you stood up and said there would be no sermon because you couldn’t think of one though ;) How I would looooove a priest that would do that every once in a while!

This is true..I guess you don’t really get a sense of appreciation for these things until you’re gone

Hey! Nice to hear about another Rhode Islander here! I’m from the Westerly area..I lived in Narragansett for a while while I was in school at URI. Newport was always fun then!!

Hi Gimli! Having a good summer?

I’m excited to be here. I don’t know how often I will be able to be on, but this site and my friends here (you) have been an important part of my life and I want to keep in touch as much as possible.

Hi there Gimli! How are you doing? Long time no talk.

I’m glad to know I’m thought of!
Do you complain to the owner?
I might punch him for you, but if he whines and complains, it’s your fault.

Yeah I left Atlanta in 85 and never moved back. Grew up in Cobb Co. It’s changed a lot, but I go back there several times a year to see family, so it isn’t a shock how it’s grown. I’m in a smaller town now and love it.

i hope so :) how are you?

Hi gimli. I used to live in Marietta years ago, and was just there last week. How do you like it?

gimliiiiii!!!! heeeyyylooooo!

i finally noticed the jobs you’ve held… how perfectly fitting to my post.

Happy monday lovely :)

lol.. Yeah.. When we were little, we used to share the same bed. Its changing nowadays.. Families are no longer as strong as it used to be. Its particularly disturbing in India, where a well developed child care is not prevelent. Children are the worst hit when families fall. BTW, Is that your boy in the pic?? sweet…

Lets hope so :)

I think i can help people…because i know what its like. And i also have so much faith that there is life after depression etc. Its just around the corner :P

Nah don’t worry you can ask any question you like. Right i’ll tell you what i’ve done/seen and then i will let you know…

Seen (in order)
Psychiatrist
Psychologist
Counciller
Community Psychiatric Nurse
Psychiatrist
Went2 a confidence building group at a Psychiatric hospital as an out patient
Counciller

Ok..so basically i REALLY did find them all sh!t apart from the first counciller…but she was only there for 3months and we didn’t get to finish. Then the confidence building course was amazing. Really helped with confidence, being around other people and being able to talk about my problems.
And finally my last counciller was the only one that actually ‘cured’ me. She was absolutely amazing. All the others were on the NHS (free health service) and were paid by the government regardless if they helped me or not.
And the last counciller was a volunteer for a christian charity.
They didn’t even mention religion…she just helped me. Since her i’m the tablets and i don’t see anyone now. In fact i’m so happy and can deal with anything now.
I used to be on 11tablets a day and now i’m on none!

Yeah i passed my a levels in psychology. Plus i’ve seen more councillers and therapists than you could think of.
I think i’d make a good counciller. I wouldn’t be patronising, i can relate, and i would know what they were trying to say because i would of been there. Plus i would love to help people like that.

Hmmmmmm….i don’t know much about sales to be honest. Over here the house prices have crashed badly so theres no house sales at all. Its good for first time buyers but people are holding out until the prices are half decent again.

ooo be careful or else my head will get too big hehe.

Well i’ve heard sales are down due to this national ‘credit crunch’ thats going on.
:(
Can you try and get a non commission based job? or at least one with a basic wage aswell as commission?

Good luck!

I’m currently studying an open degree with the open uni. I keep doing courses and depending on what i take all my courses in i will get a specialism…i’m thinking psychology. But only in my first year so haven’t decided yet

Hiya! Yeah brilliant but very busy.
Have finally caught up with my uni work so i should be on a lot more now :)
How are you?

Hi Nate :) Things are going well, thanks! I’ll be sending you an email soon. How have you been?

will do!

Get to work! hehe.

better get some sleep!

How have you been?

going to israel… not yet. No camera yet either!!! No money… sucks! I have a month though so pray for me!

I’m hurt. Canon is the choice of the photographic professional whereas Nikon is a tool of the privacy-invading, murdering paparazzi!

all nikons…… I did have a nickon noternal 58 (1.2 I think) manual focus but wonderful lens in low light.

no spherical aberration at all.

I miss that.

back up…and for daytrips….its lighter

im ok, a bit sore but gettin better!

I agree it was anoying..lost some pictures that can never be replaced.

I borrowed a DX1 for a short time and now I have replaced all my equipment.

Also added a ligther D200

Have been learning to use photoshop this winter…love i

That’s awesome! :D Yeah I know how that goes, I’m always the one to take pictures for anything I go to, so it’s hard when I’m the one actually doing something.

lol, yeah, we got a lot of people who filed at the last minute.

hmm. not sure if I have anything that you’d want, but I can look around and let you know :)

Hi Gimli!

Yeah, it’s been a while. I work at a Tax office and we are finally finished with our busiest season :D

I was able to use the camera a little bit over Easter, but have been too busy since then. I should be able to take some more soon, though.

How have you been?

Hehe :P And there you have your perfect excuse to hate-mail me constantly for the next 12 hours :P
And yeah… I give up. lol

Hehe. Do you have hayfever tablets? I got it really badly last year, not nice >.<
Yeah, well. Things are generally ok. Bad day today but it’ll pass… sometime.

I have allergies. :( (Well, if you want to be so literal about it, then I guess I always have allergies. Today I am suffering from an allergic reaction to pollen… Haha! I just cheered myself up!)

Now tell me how it’s really going!

Hi :)
I’m ok thanks, how’re you?

hey, thanks for the shout.
yer i can see where u r coming from bout the long term effects ect.. iv just had a tough year and a half, with a lot of shitt stuff happenin, if my weight bounced out of control i dont know what id do. its hard for people to understand where i am coming from, i know that making myself sick is bad but at the same time i will hate myself even more if i gained weight.

anyway… enough of the depressing stuff - skiing! haha yeah i do xc skiing. do u?!
i use to be in the school team but had to drop it cos i was doing too much - either dancing or skiing had to go. but i still ski occasionally though, its such a great sport!

It’s one of my hobbies.

Because I’m a penguin?

Of course.

A girl’s got to sleep. ;)

Eh? What? Should I be offended?

No worries, I do the same on occasions lol.
