Take all the time you need

Jenn,
Sorry to hear things are going the way they are, but it sounds like you've done the best thing in the world getting Rachel to come over.
We all deal with these times in our lives differently but it sounds like you know what you need to do; so go do it.
I found your thread about 3 months ago and it is amazing; your amazing. You live life fast and full so maybe it is a time to take a little break, adjust direction, priorities etc.... You will be fine I'm sure! If you quit the thread it will be a great loss for a lot of us who love your stories and live through you a little vicariously (?sp) but, you gotta do what you think is best for you. (Over 100 pages of threads is certainly a lot of us, checking up on Jenn) Good luck and all the best!

*hugs* Jenn, we all wish you the very best.

Not a nut job, just human like the rest of us............good to see your support group works...

 

[enfield71]

I agree with your friends. If you want to be a good friend then you have to ask for help from them when you need it. If you only dole out the help then it is a one-way friendship!!

You are one cool lady. Hope you take some time for R&R. Would love to hear about your adventures. Remember - we are friends too and we care about your too. Therefore, I am glad that you let us know that you were feeling under the weather and one of us had Rachel's email - nope it was not me

My best regards.

JennO,
Thankfully you are in a position financially that you can get away. The comittments you have profesionally seem to be weighing heavily on you? If so, it's probably time to evaluate what is most important to you? What you need to be happy in your life. Then go for it. If there is something putting undue stress into your life, shed it like a coat that is too heavy.
You have been a wonderful addition to most of us that follow you and your thread and we only hope for the best for you.
Huggzzz
Spicey

Good Luck, Jen

As much as I would miss this thread, if closing it is what is best for you then that is what you must do. We would all miss you but you are what is important. When you feel up to doing it again, if ever, we will all be here to enjoy the interaction again. Do what you must, what is good for you and if you decide to do it again, wonderful. If not, have a wonderful life.

I'm sorry!

I shouldn't have come on here and posted, that was really, really inconsiderate of me. It made everyone worry and there's really nothing to worry about. I'm feeling much better with Rach here, I guess I just needed to talk to a friend but didn't want to bother any of them.

I got a pretty good talking to from Rachel yesterday and I don't blame her. It seems I'm fine at helping others, I just have a problem asking for that help when I need it. I've always been like that, I just try to do things myself, I don't want to put anyone out. Rachel pointed out that being freinds is a give and take proposition and I should be thinking about how much I deprive my friends when I don't give them the chance to return those favors that apparently I dole out so well. I don't think of myself as being overly helpful, but based on what she's said and what a few others have said, I've been selfish.

Anyway, I will be back at some point, I'm just still feeling kind of run through the wringer worn out right now. I thought my recent road trip would help out and it did to an extent, but when I got home, I still had the work and all the commitments to deal with and no one to talk about it with. Things just piled up with the time of year is all.

I'm not crazy... well maybe a little. If you've followed this thread at all, then you'd have to agree. I just get the blues sometimes and am stupid about them. I feel really badly that I worried all my friends, Philly is even flying in from Iceland. I told him that he doesn't need to do that and I got another talking to. To be honest though, it's going to be so good to see him, I worry about him and his adventures and we haven't seen each other in over 8 months.

So... no more worrying, I'm in capable, loving hands and will be back to play again before you know it. Thankyou so much for your concern. When Rachel returns home, she's going to find out who it was that sent the email and I want to thank you too. I really, really needed her and was too stupid to even know it.

Sorry about all the concern and fuss I created. I may have to close this thread down and start a new one to wash this blemish away. I wouldn't want new visitors to think me as this big, stupid nutjob.

Jenn

I will make one comment and then leave all alone. I don't feel that a new thread is waranted? To me this only shows that you're human like the rest of us and have things in your world to deal with at times. It doesn't make you less a person. I would rather say that it makes you a better person that you can share things and get through them (even though that wasn't your intent). I know that it feels to you like you spilled part of your deeper thoughts to us and it makes you look weak. I would say however, that it gave us a chance to show that we care, and you a chance to learn that? So in my eyes, come back when you're ready and continue on with what you've started!

Best Wishes,

LB

[SamFrench]

i agree with LB. this thread just shows that you are a very real person, not some make-believe online persona. i told you before that it's finding out that your pics actually match your description, i.e. very real, that makes reading your stories and threads even more arousing. this just shows another side of you, one of many sides of your wonderful REAL person that you've shared with us lucky readers. i for one will always remember this thread as the best one on this BB, mainly because you've shown us your humanity.

i adore you for that and will always remain a loyal fan/friend.

I believe this says it all! And could not have said it better. x can't even say how many more

 

[druce19]

Hey Jenn.....glad to hear that you're feeling better. Take your time and come back when you feel up to it !!!

*hugs of support*

[Cpttoesucker]

Golly Jen, I'm a big stpid nutjob sometimes! Come as you are Good to know your feeling better. I hate to see a JR fan in the dumps.

 

[PanzerMKZ]

Great to hear that the friends are coming in for you. And I want to give a hand to the emailer too.

[tabber]

I'm glad to hear that you are doing better...hey, everyone needs to lose it now and then. It recharges us.

You've done a wonderful job with this thread. You've attracted the best followers that I've ever seen. No one is being crude or rude here. The fact that you've shared so much of yourself, in many ways....only brings us closer.

 

[nathan122]

Jenn and Rachel,

First, Rachel, thanks from another online admirer of you both for being a good friend to Jenn. It worked out, and that's the most important thing... thanks to you, to Jenn's resiliency, and to the mystery emailer.

Jenn, you have nothing to be ashamed of, or to apologize for. None of us are perfect (although there seem to be many on here that think you're darn close to it!), and we all fall down sometimes, then pick ourselves back up.

I hope that you'll let someone special into your life to share your lovely self with more deeply, and who can give you the love that you deserve to have too.

nathan

Lilbudy said it really well.

My comment from a sporatic lurking poster.

to me your a real person. This thread is one of the few i come to lit to look for. I don't check every day, when i feel lonely i come here to see how your doing. I work out of town away from my family. I come here to see how your doing, the updates on the races, reading your new stories, and just enjoying your banter. If you feel you must start a new thread, then do it. Do what makes you happy. Just know that inadvertantly you have touched many lives in many ways. I would have to say, in very positive ways.

I am very glad you have a friend like rach. Someone that will be there in a split second. That is something not everyone has, and should be cherished.

To Rach,

thank you for being a friend to Jenn. It takes alot to be the type of person to do whatever it takes. Thanks again to both of you.

STC.

May the peace you deserve, shine down like beams from the sun.

 

[littlebaldguy]

Just to let you know that you are not forgotten (ha ha) For all I hope--wish you the best-Hope you are doing well now---we love you and miss you--but look for you at your terms. Take care

 

[412len]

Exactly.

... Oh for the love of shit: What the fuck?

 

[JenniferO1]

Hello boys...

I'm baaaackkkkk!!!!!

I won't be here too long today, Philly is staying with me of a few weeks and he's out at a game today with some friends. I haven't shared my inclination to come here with him yet, but I think I'm going to.

What do you guys think?

JENNN!

Good to see you (well, can't actually see you but whatever)

Hey, I'm all about the open honesty.

 

[Cpttoesucker]

I think taxes are to high and the cost of gas sucks and the ground really hurts when I hit it!

But I know I am glad to see your doing fine. If you think he will dig it, then go for it.

 

[Blue_Sky_]

Welcome back, gorgeous!

Jenn is back and all is now right with the world.

Yay! You've restored my faith in the integrity of the universe.

I think it's great that you are back!

And maybe if you share with him, you can take new pics for us together

 

[JenniferO1]

Thanks for the welcome back...

I am feeling much better, I just needed to spend some time with friends.

As to Philly being into this... I think he'll really, really dig it. It's just the right balance of nasty and nice to appeal to him. I don't know what pictures I might want to show though, I'll have to figure it all out ahead of time so he will be surprised on every shot. I think it would be really hot, I'm not sure how long I'd be able to stay with you though, he get warmed up really pretty quickly. Then I'd never be able to focus on typing.
