Soothing!, no way!!, see were two different peas from the OA RA pod, when I make bread there's a lot of swearing banging of pots and pans howls and crying followed by sobs and maons of " I followed the book honest,it's not my fault it's as dense as a house brick!.

Hi Mel,
I bet those two Italian loaves were exquisite.

If you can lay down at night knowing in your heart that you made someone's day just a little bit better, you know you had a good day.0 -
hi Mell,
i am with Elna on this one. pain doesn't make me attack and be caustic to people and i am on shed loads of tablets some of which send me out of the tree at times as you know
i guess i am lucky to be able to sky rant.... bit like your spleen thing only its directed at the powers that be..... i don't hold back so much with them.... see where that gets me
i know pain can make people ratty and not too kind but it doesn't excuse it really...... i try to treat people how i would like to be treated i guess pain or not, tree swinging or not i stay fairly even keeled.....
hey still got a job for your lads
and you might share some of this bread your all makingCris xx

Ummm keep feeling like i am in a different zone here.... i am obviously missing what is going on here!!! :???: :???: :???: :???:
So on a more lighter note hope everyone is having a better day and as pain free as they can be. Has everyone finished their Christmas shopping???0 -
Hi,
At the risk of people judging me I just wanted to add my bit, some will know I had very nasty comment last week from a member. I know that we are all in pain albeit different levels and different medication but we are adults and are responsible for what we say, I take method, anti TNF, anti inflams, painkillers and more and am in horrendous pain every second of the day at the minute but I am still responsible for my mouth what speaks, my brain that thinks it and my fingers (in this case) that types it. Not everyone, but some people want an excuse to hide behind something instead of being truthful.
I work three days a week and have three children, as previously said am in pain all thine and when I come in here it used to be lovely to give a bit if support, get a lot of support and laugh a lot (mainly at the boys comments) I used to look forward to it, now it's wondering if there is going to be someone moaning or an conflict running do any of us who are dealing with this crap life changing disease need this as well?
I am sorry as from the nasty comments I got I am oblivious to what happened elsewhere so don't know what happened so I can't refer to that directly but isn't it time we all do what we are supposed to be doing and supporting each other (life's too short) instead of bickering like children in a playground?
I find it quite a simple concept if somebody posts something you don't like then either don't comment at all or comment with your opinion but not nasty childish comments! if you have had some nasty conflict with someone don't post on there comments, that's what I do now.
I hope this doesn't offend anyone as that was not the intention just to try and get everyone happy again. Xx.

It's the sanctimonious 'holier than thou' tone of some which has irritated me. How lovely that they have led utterly blameless lives and feel they can preach to the rest of us about our weaknesses and foibles. The fact that they seem unable to distinguish between what is important and what is not is, I think, rather sad. As for that intemperate and downright rude comment that Chris7 made I can assure her that Tony was not the only one she upset, but that was yesterday, this is today, it matters not.
Who gives a damn about what is happening on other forums? If my neighbours are having a row I don't go and join in, I am more than happy to leave them to it. Neither do I invite myself round to theirs to have a row with Mr DD. If people on other forums, or on here, are falling out then leave them alone to get on with it and sort it out, it's no-one else's business. We are not in a playground, we are adults who are struggling with a nasty disease, some of us are on horrendous medications which are bound to affect our tempers and temperaments and indeed they do.
AC has changed my life and for the better. I was battling this alone for so many years, finding here has brought a balm to my life that I did not think was possible. I think the mods on the whole do a very good job, it cannot be easy to do especially as they are arthritis-affected themselves. Yes, there are some odd decisions but hey, don't we all make odd decisions from time to time for ourselves, let alone those on behalf of 'strangers'? I have made many good friends on here, I have been lucky enough to meet a couple and hope to meet more. I am more than happy to keep my toys in my pram: I will chuck them out every now and again due to the incessant demands of the arthritis (and even then not that often as is it far too difficult to pick them up!) but for no other reason. We are individuals, we struggle, turning one against the other serves no useful purpose. Live and let live, post if you want, don't if not. DD

to be honest am glad will be away for a week, yesterday was not the best on here and a break will do me good. i try to suport every one even if i do not see eye to eye with all they post, we are in this together and need each other to get through.
people do get fed up and take a break that is understandable. but when they try to upset others then it not on. i would always welcome any one back, there are people i always look out for dd, len, tony,mel cris annie(she does not get on much) not forgetting trisher and bubbles mostly because i know these people best but would never leave any one with out a reply that is selfish and most on here are not so have good week and look out for each other valval0 -
Can you elaborate DD as your posts are confusing me?
You keep mentioning the row on the other forum but the blocking and banning took place on this forum.

Enough is enough now i think..
This is going to far now and been going on too long..
DD is just stating her opinion along with everyone else..This is unfair and unecessary and believe is causing alot of people to get upset when it has nothing to even do with them and this is not fair..xxTracyxx

Please elaborate ,and DD what is important is fighting injustice which is why I support Angel and Chris 100%.
and I am just stating m opinion too. Why is it so wrong for some of us to express our opinion and not others?
