Go Ahead and Call me a PollyAnna

I probably am. There is so much turmoil in my personal life. I am watching my Bro die. I am grateful any time that my husband actually remembers my name and that I am his wife.(That happens less and less.)  I consider people here my extended family and it’s tough. Here’s the definition for a PollyAnna “an excessively cheerful or optimistic person.”what I am saying makes me sound like some aging Pollyanna who just wants to pretend that all is sweetness and light”.

It seems like now is the time to try and shine and show how much we care. I guess if I have to go down, I want to go down fighting and taking care of my family.

So those of us who can post. Lets try and get our writing top notch to bring people here and let’s comment and take care of ohters as much as we possibly can. Rex, give us some great titles you are good at that.  Maybe we should step out of our comfort zone and see if we can bring people here who are not the regular audience we have. Let’s try some different topics and keep helping each other.

  1. I think that despite the difficulties, you can always count on the virily big family. There are dreamy people here who will help you in trouble and enjoy your success with you. Believe in this.

  2. I feel that way too, I try to be bright and cheerful when things are pretty awful. Every now and then I explode because I feel alone in what I do

    Believe it or not I have been through this year what you call a “Medical year” My husband is crippled and feels helpless when I must do all the work….I have busted my wrist as well and things have been stressful

    I have walked the road when I have seen heaps of people I love die.

    Yet, under neath it all, I do believe there is hope and, know you are not alone…

  3. I would be happy to help, but I am among those miserable people who have not been able to post for 10 days. Administrators are no longer responding to messages. I’m slowly losing patience and hope. I really don’t know how much longer I’ll keep

    • If you can’t see how hard we are trying to help I am sad for you. We really do care and that is whey we are flocking to leave comments and try and help. I am tossing my hands in the air and I am not going to take this personally. I am going to keep trying as long as there is a site.

      FYI – back in the day I was out 15 days because of a password issue. But that doesn’t matter to me. What matters is I do all I can to help and feel good about trying.

      • I did not say that the other members are not trying to help us (although there are very few of them). I’m glad of all the help. I still normally browse and comment on members’ posts (many of them have just disappeared).

        • You can choose to be that way. It’s your account. The key for your success is to make certain you go back an comment on all those who have commented on your posts.
