Sad today

Now now, I've been keeping up with you guys and some of you may get a stocking full of reindeer crap . Especially this Sniper guy . He use to leave the fire going in the fireplace to singe my whiskers , and one year he laced my hot coco with Go lightly . Mrs Clause caught the dickens with the stain in my red pants. All that night it was Go Go Go not Ho Ho Ho .The next year he left cabbage on the roof for my reindeer and let me tell you , they are not the sweetest smelling critters to start with but that night, ppppppp uuuuuuu , and, I could not light my pipe for fear of being blown out of the sky . I wont even mention the glue on the antenna pole . Why do you think I live at the north pole ?

Got me going Hoo Hoo Hoo with that story! Thanks

Dear Sniper, I am same as the others.  I look forward to your wonderful sense of humor.  You have made me laugh on days that I have been really down.  I get depressed with the DD and all that goes with it.  No one around me gets it.  So, even tho I do not reply much on here, I want you to know how much of a help you have been to me in dark times.  It pains me when you are down.  You are really an inspiration to all of us, and I would like to send you & your wife ((((hugs)))).  Better days ahead, and that is awesome that you can be a Santa guy this time of year.  I just feel like a 48 yr. old bag of crap whose family doesn't give a crap.  You are a giver not a taker. And that's the best way to be.  I sincerely hope your days get better, because you are AWESOME!  Kathy

Thank you guys. Once again you have helped me up when I have fallen. Thats whats so great about the people here. We all know we are human and have bad days and we lend a helping hand . Today I got my Remicade and I think I slept through most of it. Both the med and the rest were much needed I may add. I could use some pain releif and I was running on empty, rest wise. Last night my wife and I helped out at a Christmas dinner at the battered womens shelter here. Food and presents for some very needy women and children. This is when I feel very bad about feeling sorry for myself . One little girl asked me if she could have some more food and when I said , well sure,she said she was so hungry. Old sniper most lost it at that moment. Melted like wax . I can't understand how any man could turn his back on his family and his child. These ladies are heros, they gathered up their courage and got away from the abuse, not knowing where that would lead . When all was over and cleaned up and all the people were gone, I hugged my wife and we both said how lucky we are at the same time. Some times we are blind and it takes the eyes of a child to make us see .

kmfdm , I can be lonely in a crowd of people . Making peace with myself is a long hard road. Glad we can both come here and find people that relate to what is going on inside of us.

Just Great! I finally got time to reach into that stocking and... Thanks a lot Santa Sniper. Gone to wash my hands... BRB

Blessed be.
