Originally Posted By melekalikimaka Nooooo, Miss. (I was gonna say ma'am but this is a happy place.) ;-)
Originally Posted By Deogges Mom Oh good. In that case, I could use another chocolate martini. The first was really excellent and truly helped (or maybe the help came from the phone call from Darkbeer:-D).

Originally Posted By LilliBelle Mele, I'm sorry you're having such a rough time lately. Hang in there! TiggerPooh, I'll take a slice of that cheesecake, please. Can I get you anything?
Originally Posted By Lisann22 Why oh why, do relatives have to be at DL next week? I'm really stressing about this. I need a vacation away from EVERYONE. <sigh> I'm craving some deep fried cheesecake, who's whipping it up around here?
Originally Posted By TiggerPooh1973 Alright, deep fried cheesecake coming up! (where do I find this in DL anyway??) LilliBelle, here's your cheesecake. Anymore of those Grand Marnier truffles around here?

It's just sad because God has told me that the healthiest thing for me is to not have her in my life. Oh, and both of my therapists think it's a good idea too. I'm just dreading running into her at various stores in the area. I don't want her driving by my house or trying to see my kids. I'm starting to freak myself out, bigtime. I am so making brownies today. LOL

The Mellow Thread is getting to be one of the very few places in my life where I can relax and get away from the craziness lately. Thank goodness for the friends, ambiance, and endless supply of chocolate in this place.
