Guest guest Posted August 15, 2004 Report Share Posted August 15, 2004 Hi Lynne, I remembered that your birthday was Monday and glad to hear that you enjoyed your birthday party Saturday night. Sometimes it helps to put the reminders away and just enjoy your special day, and it sounds like it worked for you. We have to remember that we are people first and need to enjoy who we are. Enjoy your birthday weekend and day, Love, Norma in Texas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted August 19, 2004 Report Share Posted August 19, 2004 You have to be thick- skinned and not let these ignorant people get to you. You are the best judge of what you can do, and you don't have to make excuses to anyone. Keep smiling! in Ca. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
