I have been torn as to whether or not I belong here yet. But after visiting the Piecing forum this morning and reading all the posts, especially Sage's, I was inspired to begin looking at the "positives" as a way to move forward.

Sage said something about having to clear out the emotional cob webs in order to see the good things that were clearly happening in her R with her H.

I think that makes perfect sense especially since I've gotten to this point. I MUST stop keeping score of who's doing more, who's trying harder and step back and appreciate the progress being made and deal with the backslides as the come.

I was amazed to find when looking back over the boards to tie my other thread links in here, how all over the place I was the first few days on this site. I was even MORE amazed to realize that I've only been coming here since 7/21/03, when it feels like I've been here for months!

Well here are the links in chronological order, of my whole sorted story to date: (bear with me if I messed these up)
Here's my Sit. Could use a friend

Please explain what this means?

Ugh Oh Help!

The 5LL...Huh?

I'm having an A with my Alien.

Hopefully this will help me see my own progress and pitfalls.

I welcome the insight of all my BB pals who have helped me work through all the issues I've vented since coming the DB board in July, and I'm grateful for all the encouragement and support I've received here in this forum.

I think I'll take some of my own advise and: Carpe Diem!
