White Flower Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 I am very happy to see you WF as my heart was literally broken when I got the word about Jennie. I am happy that my life was changed forever thanks to her. I know now that I don't have to be hateful and angry to exist in this life. Jennie-Jennie was very honest about what she believed and stood by it and was an inspiration to any woman, not just OW. I agree with you PIH. What a pity. She was an ideal other woman. What is alarming to the mods anyway? I can't speak for the mods; only heard she hit the alert button one too many times but that is hearsay. Is "alarming the mod" something disallowed in the TOS? She must have specifically done something against the TOS to be permanently(?) banned. Personally I have never minded Jennie's slant on things. Even her regular and frequent accusations to other posters of "twisting my words" were indicative of her views on life, and how other people have treated her in her life. It was a real pity in my view, how she felt entitled to dish out pretty awful treatment to the wife and family of her MM. Edited to add: Oops I thought I was in the other thread, something like "why expect more if it's just an affair". So to keep on track with the happy bit: It's boxing day afternoon here. We had a wonderful Christmas day yesterday. Although we are secular, we go all out to celebrate with our own version of Christmas and we have lots of family rituals which all the kids (both little and adults) really enjoy. We always finish off the night with hilarious games of charades. Glad you had a nice holiday. And for the record I never saw 'mistreatment' of any kind from Jennie-Jennie; just views of what she knew and was told. It may very well have been the truth for all we know. We can only form opinions and speak of what we know. ((WF)) Merry Christmas and all the best to you. Hope you're well. I am very well WWIU. I have thought of you often during my absence and hope you are well too. [inbeforethedeletesweep=Ms. Red] Just got home from work. I'm happy I got to work today and get paid 2.5x's my pay! And, I basically sat around in the patients waiting area and watched t.v. and browsed the Internet on my phone without one Out-patient coming in all shift. Good to see you WF. I was just wondering about you the other day when I saw one of your old posts somewhere. Bolded: Yes, it's sad to see that happen. I will miss her. It really seems this forum is only for "Support and discussion for those who find themselves involved with a committed partner and don't like it" Any of those who are content don't last. *sigh* I'm happy my kid had a good day with his family (my in-laws). Now he just called for me to pick him up and it's time for me to go down and finally meet my ES (estranged husband)'s married woman girlfriend. Blarg! [/outbeforethedeletesweep]I think of you too Ms. Red, thank you! I love what you underlined and if you don't mind I may just borrow it! I never once belived LS was only a place to come to and complain about my A. I came here to understand all perspectives of it, including the anger from a BS. But if I can come here to understand them, I would like to think they could also come here to understand me. Therefore, I am HAPPY to know there ARE BS here who see things the way you do!

seren Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Happy that my son was home for Christmas and I managed to speak to my H at one minute past midnight on Christmas Day - Christmas is a huge deal for us. I am supremely happy that WhiteFlower is back - hello, I was wondering where you had gone, so glad you are back. I am so not happy that Jennie Jennie is no longer 'allowed' onto LS. No matter what my views on A's are, I respect everyone's right to have an opinion. JJ was true to her beliefs and I so respected and respect that, even though I might not always agree with her. If you are reading JJ, I for one shall miss you and will be happy when and if you come back. I am happy that the days till H is home are getting fewer and that I now have to go and plan Xmas gifts for our Xmas all over again. I had a Fieldfare birdy in my garden all over Christmas, big fat Thrush type bird that I just love. The snow is finally melting, garden a big slushy mess, but seed catalogues are such a joy for planning next year's planting in my new place. Happy Days everyone x Link to post Share on other sites
White Flower Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 I just love being remembered by someone I adore so much and that is Seren! Thank you for missing me because I missed you too. I adore your belief in those who believe in themselves. It is called conviction and you allow those who have it to be themselves. I respect you so much. Happy hugs to you my friend, WF. ps I need a seed catalog;) Link to post Share on other sites

seren Posted December 30, 2010 Share Posted December 30, 2010 It's very foggy here today, both atmospherically and in my brain, naughty puppy got into my fabric box last night, ate a Napoleonic era lingerie pouch ... grr I am not happy!! Lack of sleep makes me a tadge grumpy. I am happy that I have an invite to a dinner party for New Year's Eve, I am taking the Blinis, Smoked Salmon and caviar (well not Beluga but a good one). It is lovely party frock time, but I shall leave early as my H is phoning just beofe midnight - it's the little things that he does that make him special, I have a secret parcel to open at midnight, I have looked for it and cannot find it!! But am excited. I am happy the man finally came to repair my washing machine -why do they all look creepy? He says my belt was slack, no mate, 'tis after Christmas my belt doesn't even do up!! I am so happy vintage lingerie is the thing, they certainly make sitting down a problem but look so very oo la la! I am happy that I have planned my new garden project, an English roses, lavender and peony based area, which I plan to swamp with sweet peas too, all fragrant and lovely ... but with the move I wonder if they will survive Scottish weather .. hmm more research. Time for H to come home now under 20 days!! yay!, now to deforest the legs, get exfoliating, moisturise everywhere and buy new frillies!! I am so, so happy he is coming home and we will never go through this again when he leaves the military. I am planning to wear a lovely green satin dress with a red angora shrug all Christmassey!! I know I am rambling, but just happy he is coming home!! Link to post Share on other sites

Author OWoman Posted January 1, 2011 Author Share Posted January 1, 2011 I am happy that we saw in the new year in the most perfect way possible - at an open air concert on the mountain, looking up at the stars, sipping champagne and dancing the night away. I am happy that 2010 was so good to us, and hopeful that 2011 will be even better. I am thankful for all of my blessings, and wish everyone a happy and fulfilling new year.

seren Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 Blwyddyn Newydd Dda - Happy New Year to everyone. I spoke to Mr T at midnight which made me so so happy. I had a wonderful evening at a dinner party with good friends, played funny party games, fireworks, champagne and laughter - fantastic! came home and took my dogs for a late night walk. Here's hoping 2001 brings much love, laughter, lots of dancing to the music in my head, smiling and living each and every day to its fullest. It's our new start year and I reckon it is going to be a fantastic ride!! Happy days everyone to you and yours. Seren x Link to post Share on other sites

seren Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I meant 2011 and not 2001, although losing years is not necessarily a bad thing at my age. I forgot, the suprise parcel opened at midnight involved my having to open clues, whilst my H was on the phone from Afghan - the lovely suprise was a beautiful antique eternity ring. How happy was I, his suprise for our re -enactment of New Year's Eve are a pair of antique cufflinks. Scary how much we think alike. Now to make a scrapbook for my son complete with recipes he loves.

White Flower Posted January 1, 2011 Share Posted January 1, 2011 I was so happy to receive a call from the other side of the pond wishing me a Happy New Year.

It warmed my heart and got my own party kick-started, making it seem much longer. Happy New Year to all! BTW, today is 1-1-11. Bold hahaha! My daughter and I noticed that at the very least of 10 times a week we look at the clock at 11:11. I am into the Biblical meaning of numbers bigtime. The address where my daughter used to work was 1111 ...... My address in VA was unreal (with the power of google can't give exact address TMI). Today is a special day 1/1/11... Anyway, this is the year of victory, revelation, and exposure of the real darkness:) Link to post Share on other sites
seren Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Just got back from a very good friend's house for coffee, chat and cake - she made THE most wonderful chocolate and Bailey's cream cake. I love, love chocolate cake so much, I am so full and so dammed happy! I am happy that I have my beautiful, if naughty dogs. My back popped last night and I was stuck on the stairs for over an hour. During this time I was licked to death by naughty puppy, and my big dog, sensing somethng was wrong actually tried to pull me down the stairs! But I bit the bullet and cracked the old back and managed to get down on my bum. Chirporactor Thursday. Herniated discs are a pain in the neck, literally. (mental note to self. Do not wear flesh coloured pants, I did the last time and was so, so embarassed). I have a date to have my salivary gland removed, am going to ask if he would consider evening up my jawline ... well it's worth a try, chin lift on the NHS?? Perhaps not. I managed to buy a pair of antique French linen sheets embroidered with mine and my H's initial's (S and H) and a whole load of vintage 100% wool kilts, I shall use them to make lovely cushions (not the sheets, I have a plan for those). My friend has had the all clear from Breast Cancer, so dammed happy I shall buy fireworks and cocktails so we can celebrate. Tis dog feeding time and early evening in Oxford, time for a hot chocolate and my book, after speaking (hopefully) to my H. Happy Days everyone x Link to post Share on other sites
Author OWoman Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 Seren I love reading your posts. They are full of such love and joy Agreed. Even when times are tough.

seren Posted January 12, 2011 Share Posted January 12, 2011 From a dismal Oxford with my first coffee of the day It is now less than a week till my lovely comes home, I am so, so excited have taken to just sitting thinking for hours on end of the new life we have planned. I feel so, so lucky to still love the bones of the man after over 26 years of togetherness. I wish everyone such joy. The tartan cushions I am making for the new business are beautiful, have planned some with Scottie Dogs on them - being productive makes me happy, if tired. The fab new frillies arrived yesterday, they make me glad, but will probably make me happy some time soon :-) Took fireworks, champagne and a huge breast shaped cake to my lovely friend who has beaten breast cancer - we had an absolute ball. My big, soft, big dog, a lovely black labrador, has taken to sleeping with his head on my H's jacket and making crooning noises and is off his food, just breaks my heart. I have the answer, chicken liver pate, he would eat his foot off for that. We are going to look at houses soon, I was sent an email to invite us to view an old gatehouse, complete with turretts!! I know it is not practical, but turretts and the like would make me so happy every day to live in such a beautiful house - I am so not known for being practical, now to win over H. Happy Days to everyone. x Link to post Share on other sites
seren Posted January 16, 2011 Share Posted January 16, 2011 I am hijacking the Happy Thread!! I so like this thread as it is full of hope and joy. Apologies for my repeated postings, but happiness is such a fine state of mind. I am happy that H is home a day early, only two more sleeps and my world is complete. I am so happy that a family of robin's have taken up residence in my garden, such jolly, busy little birds. I am wary of being too friendly or Madam Madpants (dog) might catch one and eat it! I had a bedroom overhaul ready for making it look lovely and found three pairs of shoes I haven't worn yet - they are so, lovely, I realised why I hadn't worn them when I tried to walk in them. So they are now, laying down shoes, in fact I have a pair on now with my pyjamas. I am off to hospital tomorrow to discuss trialing a new drug for my bonkers immune system. Just once I hope for side effects that include, weight loss, energy, wrinkle reduction and the need to drink red wine. But suspect, weight gain and headaches will win out!! Ah well could be worse. I am off with my camera later to photograph Oxford buildings, what a lovely City this is. Happy Days all. x Link to post Share on other sites
