    I do feel bad about how I went around it, but nothing I can do about that now.

    Don't feel bad, Chick. You can take only so much and deserve a measure of peace/quiet in your own home.

    Dear Weather,

    Please make up your mind. Tornados in February? Lightning and snow? What the thunder??

    To whom it may concern

    It absolutely baffles me as to why some people on some forums continue to describe way too much -- talking about way more personal stuff than anyone else really wants to know. We are glad that you are in a relationship, but there are some details you just generally do NOT share in public. There are things called boundaries; most people have them. It is the ability to discern what is private and what is not. I hope you learn them soon. I believe that you mean well, but my reaction to your declarations (and that of others) is off the scene gagging. Is that what you want us to do?

    I know you'll never read this; because you don't come here; but I'm relieved to get it off my chest.

    Dear Tucker Cat,

    Why is it you always want to snuggle when I'm getting ready for work? You also need to stop growing. Soon I won't be able to hold you under my chin, where you like to be.


    Dear Cassie Cat,

    Please sheath your claws before pouncing on my head when I'm doing my ab workout.
    Discipline is remembering what you want.

    Dear all sick people at my work,

    Please have the common courtesy to stay home if you're sick with the flu. It is truly an epidemic here and you know this. You were just the one complaining of Jane Doe coming to work last Thursday sick ... now you show up with a fever and vomiting and expect to stay at work and spread germs? Please. I don't want your germs, nor does anyone else. Please stay home.

    Dear Mom,

    I know you are utterly bereft over losing Dad, you are so sad and at such a loss as to what to do next. I just kills me to see you in such pain, I would do anything to be able to alleviate it even a bit. I love you so much and I'm helpless, I can do all the errand and business things...but I can't ease your suffering.

    I'm sorry.

    Your loving daughter

    Queen--Your mom is lucky to have such a loving daughter. I'm sure you are helping her much more than is evident to you right now. Give her a BIG hug.

    Tiffany---Couldn't have said it better! Make sure you bring Purell or GermX in, put it on your desk, and use it.

    Yes. Boundaries are good.
    "My predominant feeling is one of gratitude. I have loved and been loved;I have been given much and I have given something in return...Above all, I have been a sentient being, a thinking animal, on this beautiful planet, and that in itself has been an enormous privilege and an adventure."
