I must say thank you to you guys for tolerating me. I know I've been depressive lately and really sad so much so that pretty much nobody wants to be around me. I've been so emotionally overwhelmed and no idea how to deal with it. Hoping things get better soon.

out of curiosity, was the wrap brand from "flat-out"??? or?

i've been grilling burgers and using my flat-out sandwich "buns" that i lightly sear in the pan.

they're rather extraordinary considering the fact that they're made of chewed cardboard, sawdust and other assorted mystery contents.

I don't think it's Flat Out, I'll have to let you know.

I had a stress test and echo cardio test today. You'll be glad to know, I have a heart and it's working well.

What rubbish, tolerating? We love you WW, we could use more of you. I'll cheer you up. I'll put a cowboy hat on Grace and make her do the Macarena backwards blindfolded on a dirty coffee table. If that doesn't make you smile.......I suppose I'll have to break out the big guns and give you one of Pip's cupcakes. Resistance is futile

So... It's one of those days that aren't great. In fact, it feels worse. And I thought yesterday being a long day that it was would be considered bad. A lot of it I probably deserve, though.

Probably not a great idea to be on a public forum site while being this way. Don't mind me.

-_- I don't do cowboy hats. The coffee table, maybe. :rolleyes:

WW, did you know that we audibly prayed for you a while ago in chat? You are on our minds and in our hearts, chickie. We love you and hurt for you when you are hurting. We rejoice for you when you are doing better. Having said that... REJOICE! It's your birthday!

Stupid computers. I'd really love it if they didn't get viruses. It'd be REALLY great if my anti-virus would actually do what it's supposed to do! PROTECT ME FROM VIRUSES.

Most anti-viruses work quite well. Depending on the websites you visit, you may pick up a virus or two, or you even get a virus through an email attachment, so never open anything that has been forwarded to you as part of a gazillion-people chain email. Install the WOT (web of trust) plug-in on your browser. It displays colored circles beside the links that come up when you search something--green for safe, red for unsafe malware or viruses, and yellow for proceed with caution. And if you attempt to go to a website that isnt safe, a warning pops up and alerts you. I have it on Opera and it works great for me. :) Also there are anti-virus plug-ins for the browser only, and it wont interfere with the AV on your computer. I have Avast on Opera, and Norton 360 on my computer. One does not, and will not, interfere with the other.

I don't have Opera, I have Firefox. Do you know if it'll work on Firefox?

Emmy, I hope you see this. I just thought of something. If you want to confess Jesus as your personal Savior and Lord, and say that you want to follow Him, I see no reason why you can't "be baptized" right now. It doesn't take the members of your local church saying that you're "allowed" to be baptized because you attended enough classes that they were offering (that still makes me mad that they did that to you). We're all witnesses here. Reading the book of Acts, chapter 8, verses 26-40, I see no reason why, here on your birthday, we can't declare you baptized in the name of Jesus, if you agree to the things I typed in the third sentence of my post. You can then do whatever water-type thing is feasible; dunking yourself in the bathtub, or even sprinkling yourself with water from the faucet, if that's all that would work for right now (going to a creek or swimming pool with a fellow believer and letting them gently lower you into the water for a second is great if that's feasible as well). It's up to you, but, again, reading that passage of scripture, if you want to ask Jesus to be your Savior and a part of your life and help you to follow Him, it suits me to do this and consider you baptized :).

Oh, and we can say/type "I baptize you now in the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit", if you decide that it suits you to do what I mentioned. Here's a link to the verses I mentioned in which Philip baptized a man who had only believed for a couple minutes. https://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Acts+8:26-40&version=KJV

Also, if anyone can think of a reason as to why this isn't biblical, say something now, because I can't think of any reason not to do this. If Emily had a church she could go to that actually followed the Bible, it would be different, but God's people are here right now, gathered in His name, and I see no reason whatsoever not to let her officially join His followers if she so desires.
