I wish we all lived in a commune.

DH understands why I am upset tonight,  but not the way you ladies do.

 

I need a group hug that only BOTB girls can provide.. My heart seriously breaks over all the loss on this board lately.

I told DH too this morning about what's going on and I just had to break the sad news to him. You should have seen his face...

Emie28

I know exactly what you mean. When I logged on and saw the news I started to cry and dh, while sympathetic, just doesn't fully understand.

dmogmo

I know what you mean.

I know

I was on the phone with DH trying to find him a place ot get his cut looked at and just started bawling. He kept trying to say sweetie it's not that bad and I said I don't care about your cut right now! Then he realized what happened and nearly started crying himself. It's so unfair and sad.

Me, too.  DH doesn't undestand either.  Not the same way.

armandos_girl

Seriously.  I just want to hug someone too.

THis is really not the night to be home alone.

I haven't been on here long, but I feel like I have connected with you girls. I'm not TTC yet but I love being on here. I pray for all you girls who are pg that you all stay healthy and have healthy little babies. And for those of you who have had losses, I'm so sorry, you're in my prayers as well.

I am home alone too.  Well, besides my three dogs.

I totally understand.  I'm beyond devastated by the losses of the wonderful, amazing women on this board, and I long for something tangible to mourn with.  DH doesn't quite understand like I know you ladies do.  I'm so filled with rage and disbelief and complete and utter sadness.

i was in the living room on the laptop (I can't reply, cause I forgot the password- I only have it save on the office computer), I looked up when I read the news and told dh, who was in the middle of watching Eureka. And he said, "i'm sorry, sweetie, I know your close to your internet friends" then helped me get my crutches so I could come reply in the office.

Me too, and it's funny I was so looking forward to a night of drunken nesting with you ladies.  Drinking doesn't seem so appealing anymore though.

I totally understand.

These days especially, I feel like BOTBers "get" me more than my IRL friends. 

::taps chin thoughtfully::I think we can kick MH up to our loft and have three whole floors for a BOTB commune. Chicago's fairly centrally located for everyone and I have cupcakes! Let the commune commence at Chez Lib!

It's odd to feel so devestated for someone you have never actually met. And yet I feel like it is one of my best friends going through this and I wish there was something, anything, that could make it better.

 

This. Completely. It feels so weird to be sitting here sobbing over the losses, but I can't help it. You girls are like my best girlfriends.

:scribbles a note for DH, packs the car, grabs Gabe and hightails it towards Chicago:

Lets see, if I don't stop, I should be there in about...19 hours!

I just logged on and am sitting here sobbing. This is exactly how I feel, kdodge.

Do you have a treadmill or at least a close by gym to work off said cupcakes?

If so, I am in. The H's can visit when we need them.

 

No treadmill, but several gyms. Also, we have a rather LARGE lake with a rather large beach less than 3 blocks away and I have a beagle who'd love to go for a run with you. My guest bedroom is all yours!

This.  I feel like its my best friend who is hurting.  In fact, I think I share more with botb than I do my irl friends.

I don't post a whole lot, but I lurk quite a bit. But I agree with everyone. I don't know a lot of you well, considering, but still. It's hard to see someone lose a baby, whether you know them IRL or not. No one should ever have to suffer the loss of a child.

DH and I tried to buy 10 acres of land in SoCal a few months ago (then he got laid off), but when we were discussing what to do with the property I totally visualized starting a commune.  If we ever get that opportunity again, you are all welcome to come live on our land.  We'll grow gardens and chart together and help each other raise our babies and do group hugs every night.  How does that sound?
