Hi ladies, thank you on the feedback to this person. I have decided not to be pushed from this church, I have other friends in the church that I sit with and there are others who make me feel welcome. I have an appt. with the pastor on Thurs. to find out the various committees so I can become involved in that aspect. I am also attending Bible Study on weekly night at the church. I am also involved in the Pink sisters, which is a women' fellowship group that meets once a month in the pm. for some sort of activity or dinner, there are about 50 women in that group.This church is very involved with Gay and Lesbian issues and that is one of the reasons why I like it.
As for the lunch date, it was good and this person is chair of the Relay for life cancer walk, she does this every June, her life partner died of colon cancer 4 years ago and asked if I help out and said yes, I was a cancer survior as well. I had cancer of the cervix in the earyly 90's and it was diagnosed and treated early.
I have had two more job interviews offered for this week, which I decided to do, just to keep all options open. I am firm about the social worker position but like to see about the others. The social worker position is actually on the bus line, so I will be taking the bus into work until I buy a car. Oh, the best news, I was able to get a real cell phone yesterday, my credit was approved!
When I say I had a meltdown, I was depress/emotional, I threw out all my books and clean the desk out,I was not in a good place last weekend, but my mind is intact and feel much better. With everything that has happen in the past months and little finances ,I was a wee bit overwhelmed and stress, and sorta melted down. I spoke to my ex therapist in vermont and she actually had the police come in check in on me. I was fine, but not suicidal. I have many friends who care about me, and I am truly bless for all that I have in my life and all the wonderful people near ,far and in cyberspace. Again, thank you!
Everyone have a wonderful week! Take care, gracemae59

I like the title, "Pink Sisters." I'm glad you are making others friends at the church.

I'm behind you on sticking with that Church, seeing as there does seem to be a
