Wow, that's really sad Barri. It reminds me a little of a young woman in her early twenties that I work with.  I work with a lot of young women, we're all close and have a really great time at work...a lot of laughs and a lot of fun. I love those girls. But some of their stories would break your heart. I can see that some are on the path to success but some are definitely headed in a downward spiral and it's just hard to watch them self destruct.....knowing there's not a whole lot that you can do for them, other than listen, give support and offer advice. And hope that some of it sinks in. I'm really sorry about your friend though Barri, it's very sad. I feel bad for her family....and the ex. He'll probably live with more than a little guilt, even if what happened is not his fault.

As for the []....same ol same ol I guess. Don't let her get under your skin Barri. You know she wants nothing more than to bait you and then look for the the smallest thing to report. It's her same modus operandi. I'm surprised that you got a suspension for that though, seriously. I got and responded to your message. Thanks for telling me though, I don't usually log in there. I mainly just pop in on occassion to read, but don't really post....so if you hadn't have told me, it could have been there for awhile. : )
