I have been away from the board for some time (in case you didn't notice) - learning to find my way through and coming to some sort of 'grip' of the abuse that happened to me as a child, then an adult - including abuse I leveled...

APMorison Originally when I got started on here I tended to stick to friending people of a 'similar age' and such that I found making comments that I agreed with - Eventually I started expanding to both older and younger (I'll be 49 this year) I did make one...

My husband has recently discovered World of Warcraft. While both of us love games he's a workaholic on disability after a stroke. I don't mind that he games its great therapy for him, but since the stroke he's a bit more...

APMorison that would be a problem - since his stroke his 'real world' has multiple limitations that, in the game he does not have - I'm just hoping we can get to a better balance of game and real stuff.

APMorison that's either pari or 'pre' menopausal - if you were Post you'd be all done - something to be looked forward to - sigh the night sweats and hot flashes happen as you get farther into it - believe me, you will know when they arrive - hang in there - I...

APMorison You not only have a right to feel hurt, you have no reason to have to put up with it - or to allow your children to have to put up with it. I don't have children - not for lack of trying - but I have had some in-laws that are right there with yours I...

APMorison I think its pretty rude to do that. If I'm going to tout a site I want to make certain I'm giving reasonable information to friends - otherwise they won't stay friends long - ya know

APMorison I tend to prefer to go through my notes and will sometimes get a small group together to discuss the subject - kind of round table - depends on the topic.
