Yes ~ and that is because I talked them off! Wow what a great time we had together! That was more productive than all that therapy I have been going to. I just opened my mouth and let it all out! I feel so much better!
And I am so honored to be friends with sl! After she left I thought there’s the silver lining, I would have never met her (and all of you) if it weren’t for this shitty place we are all in.
We went to the Packer game ~ concert was really crowded and hard to hear, but the game was a blast! And the next morning we talked so much that I forgot my manners and never made breakfast, lunch, next thing you know it was 3:00 pm! So we went for a wonderful dinner at Brett Favres steak house (yum!) And sl treated! What a sweetheart!
It felt good to let someone in my world that really understands this messed up situation we are all in. I can’t wait to hear what sl has to say now that she has seen some of the dynamics going on here. I appreciate how honest we all are to each other. No need to sugar coat anything here.
The sisters weekend is going to be incredible! We will be able to listen, talk, give our opinions and embrace the hurt. And feel stronger. 🙂 Now, I need my granddaughter to get here soon so I can go!
Hi Hadj!! 🙂
I feel the SAME way!! I miss you already!! Go to FB when you have a chance!! I wrote you a private message!!Â
Cant wait to see you again!!Â
PS- you can keep the ears! They’re all yours!!! 🙂
I was so excited for you two when I heard you were getting together. And now to find out how wonderful it was and what you got out of it is so inspiring. It’s probably safe to say that you’ll be friends for life. It’s no fun to go through this SA crap alone and it takes courage to reach out to another. We all have JoAnn to thank for bringing us all together. I thinks we are a very special group of ladies.
CB,Â
I totally agree!! I thank GOD every day for JoAnn, this website and all of you!! OMG! Can’t imagine where I would be without it!!! Scary!!!Â
Like I told Zumba the other day, I KNEW it would be so easy to Just drive on up to this “stranger’s” house and feel right at home and I DID! The sisterhood rocks!! I can’t wait to see Hadj again and I can’t WAIT to meet my SS, Zumba and all the rest of the ladies who can make it and hopefully everyone who can’t this time, then next time!! We all have a bond that can’t be denied, and for that, I am grateful!!! XO!!!Â
I’m SO excited about what a great time you two ladies had. It truly was a silver lining/light beam. I know it’s been said before; but thank you, JoAnn, from the bottom of my heart for MTASA and S.O.S. I willl be eternally grateful for this gift of these sisters.
I just cannot wait to meet everyone who will be there. And someday, I know we will meet everyone who couldn’t be there, including our UK sisters, come hell or high water!!
Now, lets get that grandbaby here!!! XOXOXOI am excited to meet everyone too! I wish we all could be there! I imagine it will be non stop, unfiltered talking!
when I told my girls that sl was coming up and a I met her on the internet they said “mom how do you know she’s not a weirdo?” and I told them it’s ok I just know she’s not a weirdo, and I thought to myself were not weirdos….our husbands are!!! 🙂
Amen, Heidi! And the understatement of the year!!Â
Same thing, I told my son I was invited to Green Bay, had 24 hours to make a decision (only needed 24 seconds!) and that I was GOING.Â
Sam: You’re driving up there byÂ
    Yourself?Â
Me: Â Yep!Â

     You have never met?Â
Me: Â Â Yep!
Sam: Â AND you’re spending theÂ
     Night??Â
Me: Â Â Yep!!Â
Sam: Â Um, are you scared???Â
Me: Â Â Hell no!!! She’s my sister!Â
Sam: Â Â Huh?Â
Me: Â Â Nevermind…..Â
Me:   But don’t worry, I will be  Â
     Fine!!!Â🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂Â
Sounds so refreshing the time you both had and I too want to tell our dearest JoAnn thank you from the bottom of my heart for the gift you have given us. You have saved so many woman and that includes yourself. JoAnn, I’ll never forget you as long as I live. You are sooo special!
Love, NapLaughed out loud when I read this, sl and hadj… About your kids reactions. A text came through from a sister here and my daughter saw a name she didn’t recognize and asked me ho it was. I told her it was a friend I had met on the Internet. She looked stunned and said, “mom, that’s pretty sketch…. Do you want to talk about this?” had to laugh!
MarieMarie!!Â
Ha!!! “Sketch”!!! Ha, ha! When Sam was still home, (in high school) I prob heard that word a hundred times a day, Lol! He STILLS throws it out there now and then on the phone from college! Usually to entertain me when he’s telling a story about something goin on up there and often, when he talks about our government, lol, being the junior conservative politician he has turned out to be! 🙂
Sam lives in West Lafayette near our slumber party location! He has promised to come by and meet his new BFF Zumba, lol, and all the other ladies as well! I can’t wait!Â
Maybe someday we can have a reunion of sorts and invite our families to participate! I would love to meet my sister’s loved ones!! Especially the ones who have their backs!!! But first, I suppose we need to work on just meeting EACH OTHER!!! XO!!!Â
So funny…my SL and I had a similar conversation about my 14 year old daughter. Thanks to facebook, she pretty much knows who all of my friends are, old and new. So she was wondering who this new friend was that I was texting and calling alot. I told SL I had to figure out a careful way to tell my daughter I met her on the internet–the very thing I preach to my kids about the dangers of, day in and day out!! It came back to bite me, lol!
