Your HOW OLD and you DID WHAT?

Okay, I'm old enough to be a grandma and yesterday I decided that because I'm going through SO dang much in my life right now, I'd do some extreme stuff. #1 - Brazillian - HOLY COW WAS THAT WEIRD! #2 - Wax entire legs #3 - don't cringe - pierced my tongue So when things get really stressful in your life, what do you do - as you can see I went for the pain factor. Side note - just got the weirdest email - telling me to not put on my profile the information about Son of Satan. I said over and over in my profile, I'm sorry - but it's my only journal. I was told by this person who visited my site "to stick to what the site is meant for" - I politely told her I wished her well on her journey and hoped the best for her, but that it would probably be best for her to not return to my profile because as other people have ups and downs in their journey so do I and I will continue to write about those things so I can see what I've done and/or where I went right or wrong. I'm sure she's gonna send back a scathing email, but oh well - I've been hurting so much lately - what's some more from someone I don't even know.

Ok...I am not so sure about #'s 1 and 3....YIKES....but I think I would go for the leg waxing....not having to shave would be wonderful. On the other subject......I read your profile and found nothing objectionable there....If that other person has a problem with it....she really doesn't have to go to your profile. Reading your profile, it struck me that you are an incredibly strong woman! Keep up the good work.

kim! Thank you!

No problem. Hang in there....it has to get better!

Boy does it ever. Feels like I'm scraping the bottom of the barrel right about now.

I can't claim to have gone through some of what you are going through...but I do know that I have felt like I was at the bottom of the barrel and I know that the tough times pass and good things come.

You are sooo true in your statement. I must just be at the bottom of the pendulum swing right now. It will get better - I know it will!

Atta girl Just keep thinking that way and you'll get through.

Your profile is just that--Yours! It's about your life, about the journey. It would and should include whatever is happening, Because it all affects the journey. Because the Journey is about you. There are plenty of profiles that stick closer to surgery facts. Mine is somewhere in the middle. It's a decsion I made to relate personal info at different times--or not! And it's my place to vent. Not everything I write is accepted by all. That's Ok--It's my story!! It's the story of where we are, who we are, and what's happening to us, now. While you've made the generous contribution of sharing your life, and you've done it so others can witness your life---it still is about you and for you. Keep writting, I'll keep reading! Love Ya!!

Bek - that was very sweet.
