"Welcome", Free-on-Thursdays! Love the new name and avatar Big Grin Smiler Wink Cool

"Santa" (my MIL) gave us a Wii for Christmas so I will try your suggestion. We found out last night that we're much better at "virtual" bowling than the real thing! My husband has a wild throw, though. I can see why those wrist straps are so important.

Thank you for always being such an inspiration. You've been through something really tough and you're doing everything right. Big Grin

Do they make Wii Kickboxing? Could be fun! Smiler

Hi, Luna here. I can relate to being without your T. As with you, I am still attached to my old T(saw her from 1999-August 2008)and now am missing my recently retired T, who I only saw from Oct.2008 until now. I am set adrift and looking for someone I might not become attached to so much...so painful. Positive things are, I am doing considerable research on a couple T's, and I have hired an organizer with the money I am not spending on my T. right now. I have had to admit that I am a hoarder, not just someone who "saves things." I have great hope she will give me the push I need to continue cleaning out after I can no longer afford her. With the Christmas mess to clean up, It seems I never get ahead! Hoarder is such an awful word!
Dear Echo and Free on T, Yes, it would be good to have someone to talk to that you did not have feelings for. I think you are right that some Ts probably do not know when someone is hiding feelings for them....or they do not want to admit it. I wonder if it is a trip for them to have people idealize them. I do have a P that i see every 4 mo for meds management. He is one great guy, but insurance does not pay for therapy from Ps. He does see me for an hour, though and has been wonderfully helpful along the way. He has attempted to give me help with the hoarding stuff, but I am a tough nut to crack. He discloses a great deal. We talk about his trips and his daughter and his life in Rumania. I am fortunate to be seeing him, as he only sees a few clients outside his regular position in the hospital. I got to know him, as I was in his research study. My recent T disclosed a lot..I did feel she was more like a real person...trouble is she is so friendly, I began to slip into more of a peer relationship.She did say I could send short emails and she would answer with a short reply. She always acted like she had more problems than I have! the mother in me wanted to nurture her!
