I've decided to not complain about people too bad, but if they have honestly hurt my feelings I really dont care if they read it, maybe they'll understand and change. As far as hubby, at first I thought oh I dont want him to read anything, but maybe he NEEDS to hear that I am asking for prayer and people are praying for him.


Not saying I don't write anything...after all I joined the thread...lol. I just don't mention the all little things I see as progress all the time...I'm fine with him knowing that I'm praying for him...and that others are...

I have told him all about this forum...and I don't ever hide things from him...I don't want to...I guess I don't post those little things because I wouldn't want him to feel 'self-conscious' about them...if that makes any sense at all.

I never had texting until we got our new phones. I dont do it often, mainly just Klay and one of my friends occasionally. I havent gotten into the whole texting craze.

Yeah, I do that to an extent too. I dont want him to feel awkward. I think he has hunted me down on here once or twice, but usually realizes this is my "safe haven" of sorts.

Well, Nicole, it's obvious you don't have a teenager...lol. I'd probably never hear from my kids (unless they wanted money) if it weren't for texting...there's an entire generation who don't even know how to have a verbal phone communication I think! (not that I'm complaining...I hate talking on the phone myself!)

I don't know if my hubby has ever read anything that I've posted on here or not...it wouldn't be hard for him to find me if he wanted to...my screename is one he first made for me as the beginning of an email address back when we were dating...so he'd recognize me quickly if he ever came looking...I doubt he would...but I really don't care if he does or not. I'm an open book really, if he asked I'd show him the threads I post it.

Lorne finds it annoying when people use texting to get a hold of him. He just deletes the text and waits for them to call him.

2 days ago he got a text about an outdoor expo here in town. He didn't read it cuz he thought it was just spam. When he got to work his coworker asked why he didn't text back and Lorne just laughed and said "that was you?! I deleted it!". So now this guy probably knows to call instead of text.

I just don't get why some people don't call. Instead they email or text. Lorne doesn't check his facebook everyday and finds it annoying that some people only get a hold of him that way. Like when we went out for dinner with his cousin and his cousin's girlfriend. They got a hold of him on facebook. After that Lorne doesn't check his facebook as often cuz he gets annoyed that so many people only find out stuff if they sign onto facebook. That annoys me too. I never know anything about my sister unless she posts something on facebook... or my mom tells me.

My cousin emailed me to say she was going to be in town maybe today or tomorrow and was wondering if we could meet up. I just told her to call me. She takes up to 2 weeks to get back to me now so I don't feel bad if I take extra time getting back to her now.

Klay and I text when we are at work and he isnt able to answer his phone and its a non-important message like "what time for lunch?" Or "call me when you get a chance". Sometimes I send him lovey texts just for fun. I like to think it makes his day to look at his phone and see "I love you!" Or if he has a bad signal sometimes a text will go through when a phone call cant.

I don't care if Lorne reads anything I write. I keep this page open a lot when I leave my computer and he can read it at any time. I tell him everything I tell you ladies so it's not like any of this is new to him.

I email Lorne when he is at work and we talk everyday at lunch. If I tried to text right now I am sure I would just get annoyed and turn my phone off.

Yeah, I tell Klay everything, we have NO secrets in our relationship. If I havent told him something it usually because I forgot, not because I wanted to keep it from him. Of course, I tell everyone everything so....

Nicole...for me, personally, it's a matter of 2 reasons really...1st off, I HATE the phone...I mean it's a true case of despising the thing (perhaps that's because it rings OFF THE HOOK all day at work) so if it's not required for me to keep my job then it's a call I'm likely to not make/take. 2nd, with email I can send it when it's convenient for me (even if that's 2AM when my insomniac self isn't sleeping) and not give a thought to if it's disturbing the other person...and by the same token, they can reply when their schedule best allows and if that happens to be in the middle of my prayer/family/church/whatever time then no biggie...I'll see it in an hour or so when I log back on (or check my phone, since my email is all forwarded to my phone as well)

I dont mind talking on the phone, good thing though, I do it all day long! Hubby isnt near a computer (well one he can email on, he's ALWAYS near a computer-just running around working on them) so I just text him, besides he has a Blackberry and has a full keyboard, much easier for him to text than I. I get annoyed too easily with it!

Hubby and I have our own language when it comes to texting...acronymns that convey a message quickly. For instance, he works a very flexible schedule...when he leaves the office for the day I get a text that simply says 'hh ly' (headed home love you) so I know not to call the office looking for him if I need him.

Then, like you, sometimes we just text to brighten each other's day...he'll send me funny pictures of our dogs, I might snap a picture of myself in my office and send it to him...or just send him one telling him I'm thinking about him.

LOL

I am the most talkative person in my family (d'uh hey? ) so when there is a good story to tell I am usually the first one to tell it. Lorne rarely gets to tell stories, but he doesn't really care. He finds it funny and now he tries to tell my family something right away when we see them so I don't get a chance. And if I go to tell my brother something and Lorne already told him he laughs and says "Ha! I finally told someone something first!!" and acts all proud of himself...in a joking way of course.

I usually tell alot of stories. I am also the most talkative one, Dad says when I was little I used to talk to myself alot just because I liked to talk! I even talk in my sleep sometimes.

If I worked a job where I was on the phone a lot I don't think I would like it either.

LOL we should so have a sleepover.

I sang a lot growing up. Whenever we were on a holiday I would sing the whole time in the car. My parents didn't mind because I was behaving and just being happy, but my brother hated it when I sang so much. Actually, I still do that. I make up weird songs everytime Lorne and I are in the car. I don't think I have grown up yet ... Sometimes Lorne will start laughing so loud while trying to drive. I think it is safer when I drive and sing cuz I don't have to worry about making myself laugh like that. I get impatient feeling after being in the car for about an hour... that is when I start getting noisy. Lorne says I am his entertainment all the time.

Actually, if I am being quiet Lorne knows I am either tired or feeling sick. I can't hide anything from him. Today I am overly tired so I am sure I am going to be overly hyper when Lorne gets home... and then fall asleep as soon as we go to bed.

Well Trish I hope you don't get rained on!!

edited because I am freaking out that one day they may find this site and see what I wrote


I think that about my "friend" sometimes, but then she's really not that good with finding things on the net. Then she probably wouldn't figure it out it was she that I was talking about. (Just from me knowing how she thinks/doesn't think.)
