Jeepers, Pam, you're not giving David any space to post here!!!

I thought I read something above about "staying off of each other's threads???"

I know, I know...you want to put some of the stuff where he can read it, but I don't know if he'll feel comfy asking stuff of us here knowing you're checking in regularly. And, honestly, Pam, there just might be things I might write to David more freely if I though it was just him I was writing to....like on your thrad. Just a thought.

Personally, I'd find it VERY hard to stay away from a thread if CJ started one!!!


WELCOME DAVID!!!!!

Please DO post back to us. I might also suggest a peak at my "tips for newcomers to piecing" thread. Just a compilation of stuff a bunch of us have contributed.

David, I have to say that I've come to care a great deal about you and Pam. Her thread is FAR from a "bashing David" deal.

I can SOOO relate to your gastro troubles of late...have you ever been checked out for this? My inclination is IBS (CJ has it too and when stresses hit...he RUNS for the bathroom ). I, myself, suffered for over a decade from the more serious Ulcerative Colitis....the motto for IBD is "The Pain is REAL"...

So any questions you may have on that front...FIRE AWAY!


Also, I'm curious as to how YOU are feeling emotionally at this time. Seems to me that it must be INCREDIBLY tough to not be certain about your R with Pam, and have to deal with her sometimes fragile sometimes volatile emotional states.

For what it's worth, she is REALLY working at identifying, preventing and dealing with her "emotional meltdowns".

She KNOWS that these only serve to further your doubts, and add to your burden. They don't bring her closer to her goals of being a more stable person, of building a new and much better R with you.

I have never met you David, but from what Pam writes, I already like and respect you.

Hang around, you may get to like it here!

Shiny
