I'm not complaining but

       I probably shouldn't have joined this group because I like my whine ( wine as well) but perhaps I can rise above and be a more noble person or at least a more noble contributor.

  A cautionary note is that ‘no complaining or asking questions is how leaders try to control the masses.  Examination, which oft sounds like complaining, is MANDATORY in a free society.

  Oh but on the other hand I just filled the feeders so the birds are happy and I am pleased to see them so out my window on the world.

No rule changes - whine about the whine all you want to :)

Yeh, great day eh?

Enchanting conversation

Complaining and expressing or discussing are different things, entirely.

I do not have a thing in the world that I could whine about.
I take everything in stride and do not get angry over anything.
I am sorry you're in the position that you feel the need to whine
dear lady. I give it all up to my Lord and He helps me with it all.
Priscilla I am not in your shoes and I do not know your troubles
but I will pray that our Lord will help you overcome them.
Just Me

I have a body that is falling apart such that sometimes my knee goes out, other times my foot or back. Just keeps me guessing what will be the next one to fail on me, but I can't complain. I never throught I would get this far.

I hear you, loud and clear, Lee. Every morning my feet hit the floor and I can stand and walk is a good day. Learning to be flexible and roll with the punches is essential with physical issues, especially when it's something for which there is no cure.

Nice evening
Priscilla P. Oct 17, 2007, 10:10pm EDT
Dark out tonight

Don't worry. Be happy. It's all good. We just don't always see it at the first.

I have lots to complain about, but still have it alot better than others, so life is ok. I survive and go on(but I'll admit, whining DOES help ;P ).
Jennifer K. Oct 17, 2007, 11:05pm EDT
complaining? nah.....i don't have too much time!
Priscilla P. Oct 17, 2007, 11:31pm EDT
Roxy, You're RIGHT-it does make one feel better cause you know someone else knows the issue. I think complaints form a bond of sorts whether you agree or not.
But I am working of self-improvement. Pleasant evening--it isn't raining yet and I don't think any new mold grew on the walls of the camper. I sprayed it with Tea Tree oil and water today as that is suppose to kill mold. But I'm not complaining--it is noce for everything to grow where it will.

A good gripe-fest to blow off steam can be a real relief. Too much complaining damages relationships and has even ended a few marriages in my vicinity. There's a place for it and it shouldn't go unchecked and run over to contaminate every part of one's life. That takes effort, but when I practice it, it creates a real sense of gratefulness and helps me to see the bigger picture: the world isn't all about me. Yeah, it's a shock at first, but we are adaptable critters.

Look , I think that some of these people need a reality check! Life is full of bull! It's not all Mary Poppins people! Sometimes, complaining and whining is all we have to let off some steam, ( short of of murder and dismemberment!.).......lol...
I say go for it! If it feels good, do it! ...I sure as hell do!

Life is way too short to make yourself miserable!

Especially with so many people in the world who are willing to do it for you!!!!!
Priscilla P. Oct 18, 2007, 10:13pm EDT
Yeh! An I think that the ole see no wrongs, hear no wrongs and do no wrongs is just waht political and religious leaders want. We need more people with more gumption and big mouths.
And I won't complain that congress just failed to override the children's medical assistance bill because they had rather fund MURDER
Connie C. Oct 19, 2007, 1:25am EDT
Nah. . . I really have nothing to complain about except I am exhausted tonight. :)
Priscilla P. Oct 19, 2007, 1:30pm EDT
Oh la la the sky is gray, the rain continues to pour, the equine corral is 6 inches deep in muck (like the federal government) but we are just so oblivious.
Christmas to me, is all about Jesus,
And the message of love he has given to all….
A rate of 10, a comment from me, and a prayer
That Christmas for you will be all that you dream of~
