This is to all of you with the subject in mind. 1st know I am PMSing X 10, that being said I need to say this. MMS & all of you have come real close to saving me from so much. I would love to say here you have saved my life, but since any of us can't say when that's gonna happen, & I don't plan on goin any time soon this has TRUELY BEEN A LIFE SAVER FOR ME!!!!! I have thousands of dollars of paper crafting chit. My DH bought me an Cricit Exprsions for Christmas last year. I have cut one thing with it. The guilt the shame the horror of not being able to work with any of that, due to my condition (so perimenapausal I spend the day wanting to scream) because it is one more mess to deal with and just can't kills me. Being a creative person without being able to create is bad real bad. When I got this soft ware and found all of you I felt reborn. One of my worst symptoms with this is insomnia, I would lay at night and feel doomb and gloom. Now it's still there but I am designing pages in my head, useing what God gave me to create something special for my family & friends. I apologise to all of you because I feel like a Face Book Hound and don't want to be that but all the things I have learned & see there mean so much to me. I do learn & make great steps forward and then feel like I hit a wall when I can't figure out something that I know is just a click away. Today I was able to share pages with my Mom, she just got back up and running on her computer. To here her say how wonderful it is to see the old pics & the ones of Sammy for the calendar made my heart sing. All I wish is that there could be more in the learning part, more sharing here with what I learned today, and more ways to learn how to use what I know is the best programming ever. I just wanted to tell you all why I post on FB every minute of every day. It's what's keeping going and I need it so. want to know

Menda!!! Super big hugs to you!!!  I am so glad you have found a "home" and friends here at the forum and on the FB page.  We have grown quite a bit together and have shared in each other's triumphs and tragedies.  What we share on this site and the FB page, and more importantly on our pages really is an outpouring of what is in our hearts.  We have pages posted that are celebratory in nature and those that help us mend deeply personal pain.  You are NOT alone in any of this... even though we are not there with you in person - we are all on the same journey and trying desperately to figure out how to make the most of it along the way.  I am so ETERNALLY grateful for this job that God has given me - because the way this happened was too strange to be by accident!  He prepared the path for me and the way to connect to those of you who have touched my heart in such a special way.  I have more friends here than I could have ever imagined.  And people who say that real and true friendships cannot be forged online, in communities like this - do NOT know my Suite Chicks!  I am so thankful and blessed by all that you share, all that you learn, and all that you teach me... both about myself and the things that I love to do.

We will continue to grow together and share in this life all that we have with each other, and continue to create the most wonderful treasures and keepsakes for our families... whereever they are.  Some will be in our homes, and some live on only in our hearts, but the memories that we commit to projects, to paper, to our hearts will always be there for us and for those that come after us.

Thank you Menda for sharing your heart... and your genuine LOVE for learning something new!  We are ALL so GLAD you are here!

HUG HUG HUGs to you!

... and don't forget to make a memory today!!

Menda, we are so glad that you have joined us in the awesome group of (mostly) women, who we have come to know and care about!  I love to wake up before my family and "check" on my MMS family before my crazy day begins.... it makes me happy when I see pages of something special that has happened in someone's life and gives me reason to pray when someone shares a tragedy or difficulty in their life.....You can never share too much!!! Hugs, Jessica
