Got some new paints, so did this today, Bob Marley, Liquid watercolour and acrylic on canvas

hello all! hope you are all well or as close to as can be . ive been around but quiet lately. tuesday i was hospitalized for pelvic problems due to pregnancy and i got out on my request thursday. i dont like being in the hospital and all i was doing was laying around and taking pain killers so i figured i could do that at home. i was put on crutches and told to get a girdle. they refered me to phsiotheropy but i cant get an appointment till mid june and im due end of july. im struggling to find a balance between resting too much or overdoing it. its really frustrating! i tend to think oh this hurts but it rediculous that i cant wash the bloody dishes in one go so i keep going then i end up not being barely able to walk for the evening. balance is not a quality i excell at! guess its time to learn. i hate the bloody crutches and dont want to use them but evertime i dont i make myself worse . uuggh frustation! good news is weve gotten the cot and a bunch of baby stuff from friends. getting really excited about the baby and at the same time really nervous that im not prepared but marc as always is reassuring and helping me. also ive had assesments with a physchiatrist and a theropist and getting started with them. mentally my memory and concentration is like a golfish and the phsychiatrist explained to me the other stuff im experiencing is called depersonalization but we will get into what to do about it in further appointments. well thats me in a nutshell. and a special thanks to my marc for putting up with my many complaints and whining, helping me to get around, nursing my health and all the above and beyond you do each day :wub: :wub: and hugs to all the rest of you for being so supportive of us both xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx :wub:

aurora that is sooo sweet of you to say im flabbergasted and blushing but its also a warm fuzzy so thank you so much for saying this big huge hugs to you xxxxxxxxxxx

thanks dani and kalico xxxxxxx its good to hear from you both lol i love the (almost) :lol:

Joshua, Thank you for removing the link sharing, I'm happy you did, - even if you are still debating it... best regards, kitteh xoxo

Link Sharing Easily share links from your community to Facebook, Twitter, and more. Great way to drive traffic to your community! This i find worrying, as Piuma also said. yes i have used fb, but upon further thought and a little research i am extremely suspicious of facebook. Its owner, Mark Zuckerberg is in his 30's, and was offered 1bn dollars for it a while back. He refused to sell. I wonder why. -Maybe its the all the data - mining stats available from millions of ppl worldwide- slightly scary. A lot of members post quite personal stuff here. A lot of members do not want all and sundry reading their posts which they have written trusting they will be only shared with other forum members. maybe some ppl might be interested in this link about facebook - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aT322GiT5lw&feature=related Or this i found quite interesting as well : Report: Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg Doesn’t Believe In Privacy Read More http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2010/04/report-facebook-ceo-mark-zuckerberg-doesnt-believe-in-privacy/#ixzz0nIWtX8nr I would not post anything on facebook i didnt mind if the WHOLE WORLD knew about me. Advertisers, Government, my mother, my ex partner who i am in a custody case with. My ~(future)~ employer. Even those quizzes- "What kind of criminal are you"- etc- you know the type- are you really sure you want to share that info with the whole world. Mark Zucherberg does not believe in privacy- see links above. That worries me. I am very very suspicious of these buttons that have appeared on this site re: Twitter, FB, Digg, etc. I come here for support with some intensely private issues. If they were not so private to me, i'd post them on my facebook wall, using my full real name. My sons use facebook. My 2 ex partners who i do NOT want to share any info with by any means!!!, both use facebook. Can anybody make sence of the privacy settings on FB. If you can, fair play to you- no matter how long i tweaked with my priv. settings, I could not change some things from popping up - which i am not ready to share with my kids, ex, etc. After finding out these facts i was worried, and closed my fb account about 3 weeks ago. I normally do not venture into the city, but had no choice last week, and while waiting around for 2 hours to be recalled into family law court in the afternoon i had a coffee in an outdoor part of a cafe on a busy Street. By total coincidence, (i don't believe in 'coincidence, i believe in fate, or timely warnings...) I met a guy i was in school with , he used to be a landscape gardener, but with the boom economy he decided to do a Private investegator course, then became an apprentice to a PI. Yes, very James Bond. I was talking about tracing birthparents with him, but most work he does is about extra marital affairs, and spouses checking up on their exes pasts. As well as Companies checking up on potential or current employees. The co. he works for also investigate insurance fraud. I was facinated, especially when he said the net is his first port of call. With those games on fb, many ppl will friend you just so you will send them a "gift" regularly on farmville, vamp wars etc. This is called a 'social hack', there are also a few "industry hacks" on how to access ppls fb pages, status, friends, etc. He wouldnt elaborate as he had to go. But i was glad i'd spoken to him, In the past few months ive been deleting my fb acc, then re-opening it to talk with some of you guys. Needless to say, i will not be re-joining fb. And a fb logo below posts scares the shit out of me. "Being paranoid is simply knowing all the facts"- W. Burroughs. I think its very true. I am definitely going to be more conservative about posting personal information, or even views if there is a FB logo underneath! Take care and be safe, Kitteh. x

I was hoping that viewing and navigating your own blog would be back to a format where it was before. It is really helpful to be able to scroll down and see how your moods have been shifting through the week etc.... this is the main function I use on the site for my own self awareness. Since people with BPD are encouraged in T to keep a mood diary, I would think its function would seem obvious? The columns and the hidden previews are not just off-putting and frustrating, they actually zig-zag by date/time, not even a standard journal format, like reading a newspaper. Standard western culture reads from left to right in a paragraph fashion. Can we possibly go back to this? Sah Other than that, It is nice to have upgrades but not at the cost of functionality, I think that has been a big trend in software design in recent years. So, thank you for the upgrades too.

I would like an iPhone friendly option these are very easy and would make using here quicker. The mobile friendly option is dated!! So please consider bringing it into the realms of 21st century like all the rest of the forum. iPhone users are millions of people.. I happen to be one! Bb x

If you don't like the iPhone version, don't use it. No one other than you so far has complained about it, actually a lot of people were commending the mobile version. Why should Joshua foot the bill for something entirely non-compulsory when he does so much for us already? beggars can't be choosers.

When you use the forums go to the bottom left of the screen where it says ipb default and change to mobile version. Works great on my iphone.

Ive a Nokia E63, currently awaiting a Blackberry, shall check out the Mobile version, cos I'd love to be able to get this when out and about.

Don´t really like the idea of reputation points, Josh. To me as BPD it is too much like labeling - and maybe even discriminating. Its my personal problem, but certain flashbacks crashed down on me when I saw/read it.

Hi Elke I think of it more as a like button or dislike button, other wise i too would get really para etc. xxx
