I know this was probably something that I could never say to anyone face to face, but I'm glad that I was able to let everyone know what I was going through.<BR/><BR/>I love all of you, and I'll keep you all posted on my progress. I've lost 5 lbs. since Thursday already. I'm very optimistic.Marlena Hallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14362868482425722172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15018042.post-1142206952376438972006-03-12T17:42:00.000-06:002006-03-12T17:42:00.000-06:00Guilt is the hardest thing to let go of, because w...Guilt is the hardest thing to let go of, because we feel like we deserve it. We feel like it's just and right for us to feel this way, otherwise we obviously didn't love her as much as we say we did.<BR/><BR/>I'm proud of you for starting on this path. I'm with you, always, even though I can't be by your side when you need me. I, too, realized that I was killing myself over it...slowly but surely. <BR/><BR/>It's been a long, hard, dark road to this point... but I know we've both beaten ourselves up enough. She loved us, we loved her. She wouldn't have wanted us to wallow in it for the rest of our lives.<BR/><BR/>I love you, my Sissypoo. My Other Half, my Late Born Twin. We'll get through this like everything else... holding each other's hand. <BR/><BR/>I'm always here if you need me. I love you.Aliciahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12641377907709417582noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15018042.post-1142051820116595182006-03-10T22:37:00.000-06:002006-03-10T22:37:00.000-06:00This post makes me so happy and leaves me so optim...This post makes me so happy and leaves me so optimistic for the future. I never got to meet her, but have spent enough time with her daughter and granddaughters to know what kind of woman your Gramm was. You're right, she never wanted anything but for you ladies to be happy, and this is a step toward a happier Marlena. Lots of us have things we need to let go of, recognizing them is the first step. It's also the hardest.CPhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16720835200006823308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15018042.post-1141957830846928672006-03-09T20:30:00.000-06:002006-03-09T20:30:00.000-06:00No Problemo Marls...

And thank you for sending those pictures when you did. They've made a big difference in kick starting this process for me.Marlena Hallhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14362868482425722172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15018042.post-1141945054193133542006-03-09T16:57:00.000-06:002006-03-09T16:57:00.000-06:00Wow...That's a whole lot of "Personal" goin' on th...Wow...<BR/><BR/>That's a whole lot of "Personal" goin' on there Marls... And, if your 4, (2 more than me) fans can't handle it, that's a real shame... Cuz' as far as I'm concerned, you can only truly appreciate someone that you understand (On any level)... Especially when that person (You) shares such an important piece of your life with us... Now, while I did not laugh as I have with previous posts, I feel like I understand better than I did before... And, I wouldn't trade that for all the "Toilet Sagas", "Stuff on Your Cat", or "Comic Thievery"... Thank You for makin' me feel that much closer to you...<BR/><BR/>Your Friend,<BR/><BR/>TonyTMALO70http://www.blogger.com/profile/08774734075911444769noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15018042.post-1141945009019116642006-03-09T16:56:00.000-06:002006-03-09T16:56:00.000-06:00I'll be there with you.

But if I could, I would hire someone to do it for both of us.Lori Khttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05423942071046704238noreply@blogger.com
