Seeing your name again brought a smile to my face. You always gave such sound advice to us all and I, for one, have missed your posts. So glad to hear you're doing well. Love, AAI
I am doing a dance...Yipee!! Yeah! I am so happy you paid us a visit. So happy to read your post. I have thought of you so often. You were here for me when I was SJ and complemented me on my current name and you made such a difference by showing me what it takes to get thru this A mess. Because of people like you, Iddy, Energy, E-1, and lovelystar...I am still here and paying it forward and I am hooked and love it and would not give up the board. I look forward to being a vet in the months to come. Thanks so much and stay around if you can and if you can not please drop by once in a while. So happy to hear your doing well.
If your ears are itching again, be sure to come on thru...
So amazing to hear from you Clarity. I was re-reading some stuff in the Library, and 'you' brought so many smiles to my face with your firm advice and no nonsense attitude. You were there for me in my very early days of NC (as Jodi_09), and here I am 90+ days with Tweener wings. You were such an important part of my early days journey and your legacy goes on in the posts that remain.
My best to you Clarity (-:

Oh, did I ever see NC as punishment. It was the last straw, the last resort for when I couldnt take it anymore. I kept NC in my back pocket hoping to never have to use it.
Well once I hit that rock bottom and had no where else to go, I went NC and havent looked back since. Thankfully there have been no fishing attempts by XMM and I have been lucky enough to have the shoulders of some very fine woman on here to lean on (thanks Alice). Jane and New season have also been a big help and have helped me see some things in a different light.
Withclarity, early on in my ending process you gave me some tough love but I needed it. And like you said, once I was ready to listen, I heard everything loud and clear.
This las been a tough road, but its getting easier every day and I promise to stay here on EAS and chim in/help out when I can.
I am really glad that you came back to this board. When I ended my A last year it was your sincere but tough words which gave me the strength. I never posted but I read every one of your posts. I was too embarrassed by my behavior during my A to post. You and empowerment were counseling me and you didn't even know it. I remember so many of your posts where you laid it on the line. One in particular, I was actually getting ready for one of our get togethers with XAP. I had made up an elaborate lie about having to go out of town
I know for a fact that I have certainly missed your posts. When you left, our Vet count went down to practically zilch. E1 steps up when she can (busy lady), and Energy will pop by every so often, but Victory and several others have flown the coop. :( Golly gee whiz, girl, we need you a heck of alot more than FB does. ;-)
I do understand though, why taking breaks from here is necessary, but pretty please with sugar on top, try to pop in a little more often. We need you.
