What's been happenin'
« on: December 23, 2006, 05:05:26 pm »
Hi everyone,

I have been back browsing the forums again lately. I wasn't able to come here for a long time, too long. My labs are ok. CD4 around 360 (I think) and the VL is somewhere around 2000. Doc and I have talked about meds some but we are just going to wait and see if my CD4 keeps going down.

Anyway, it seems different around here. I see many new people and wonder where some of the long-timers have gone. Like, Moffie, Joe, Jonathan, Trish and John. So what has been going on? I don't want drama or to cause any fights, I just want to know what's been happenin'. Anybody get married? Start meds? Get there foot stuck in an ant hill? Good news? Anything?

Hope everyone is doing well and if not I hope that it gets better.

Holly

Nice labs Holly. Glad for you girl!

Moffie and Jonathan are just blogging for now (as and when their time and health allows - neither have been doing so great lately). John and Trish have gone to another website, though they still pop up here now and again I think. And Joe is still blogging and posting I think, not as regularly but he's still here.

Welcome back!

Ahh, thanks guys! Ok, so now I know that it wasn't John and Trish that got married but congrats and best wishes to ACinKC!

Also, the gathering is somewhat close to me and I'm considering going. I have chickened out already for these gatherings but it's hard when it's going to be so close. Who is going and who else wants too?

Hi Holly, welcome back! They're still arguing over AUg'Sept (even tho Sept won) over in AMGatherings-lol

Once the works are ironed out they should start a thread with who is and who isn't going. I personally would love to go , the place sounds really nice.

Hi everyone,

I hope you all had a good X-mas or whatever you did or did not celebrate. Mine was ok. I got home yesterday and soon was in a fight with my bf. What a prick! Then we started to get along and this morning he called me a bitch. I'm sick of this. Not sure what I'm going to do yet. Anyway, I'm glad the Holiday's are over, now I just have to figure out my next move.

So now that I got that over with, did anyone do anything exciting lately? Fall in love on Xmas eve? Or get a black eye? LOL.
