Pamina thanks for starting things off today! I have been very inconsistent posting in the daily thread, and that is NOT very nice of me to not keep up on what everyone is doing - since I get consistently great support from each and every one of you!!
Pamina, I took a hard fall last summer at 60 days. Here I am at 47 days and you BET I'm armed with a plan because I will NOT F it up this time. I think the biggest part of my plan is just KNOWING to expect that AL might talk a little louder than usual around that time. I've got my arsenal of AF beverages, and the L-Tryp, Kudzu, GABA as backup. Along with a humongo dose of determination. Hopefully that will get me though!
I too really value the participation and input of the longer term and experienced AFers here. The fact that you stay here posting, and share your wisdom means a LOT to everyone behind you on the path - me included of course! Even with my thick skull and seeming determination to learn everything the hard way, I know I have avoided many pitfalls due to great words of advice here.
to IBelieve!
Det, Mary is indeed on vacation but I think she should be back soon.
Charlee, your words of wisdom make sense!
cindi...I am so sorry that you are still experiencing such pain and frustration. I love your new avatar - makes me think of you just "getting away from it all" in SYTLE and without AL!!
Beck, I bet you are looking forward to the VBS week and some "you" time! (took me a moment to figure out VBS...but was reminded of my own time there as a kid...we LOVED it!!)
OMW, Deter, Mame, louise (I was indulging in your Louise Special's all weekend!), Greenie, 4tbz, and anyone I missed and all yet to come....[pause for a deep breath] have a GREAT AF day!!
