I am in need of your help my friends. My life is in shambles. I am not sure that I can make it through this. I however had to take the time to warn EACH of you what has happened to me. I would not like to see you meet with my fate. It is a fate that can be avoided. Although difficult to beat you must try. You must give it your all. The fate of your family depends on this.
I was sitting at home today. Minding my own business, taking care of my children and trying to stay out of trouble. This is when it happened. It was so awful...
I walked into my room... and there he was... THE PUSHER. He had tried to draw me in with his web of lies and deceit. He had tried to turn my head. I had avoided him for a long time now. (Hours had passed and I had not used) I was proud of myself. I felt strong. However, he looked at me with his big black screen, and the next thing I knew... I was using again.
Typing away at the computer, going ONLINE... then, right there in my favorite places... THERE IT WAS. I read the words and chills ran down my spine. "SIGN IN" it said. I tried not to do it.. I did my best. My fingers typed in my password, my mind ran away.
I was sitting here on that addictive site again. I spent hours, reading and commenting.. Each time more exciting then the first... As if I had not already gone far enough, then I decided to PUBLISH! I am hooked. What can I do? After that I gave in to the addiction and just went down the wrong path for so long.
I have gotten a call today. This call was very disturbing... It was the CHILD PROTECTIVE SERVICES WORKER. He told me that my small children were found three miles from my home. They were carrying small signs. On the signs (in messy crayon) it read..."Homeless, Hungry, Our mom is addicted to gather!" It seems that several people know of this addiction. Isaiah was holding a small cup, inside the cup was hundred's of dollar bills. There was even notes. One of the notes read..."May god bless you and keep you from your mothers fate."
The child protective people are keeping the kids. It is pretty quiet around here. It seems I have more time to feed my addiction now. I will miss the kids. I loved them so very much. However, Gather will of course fill my voids. It will be here whenever I need it... and the one good thing...IT NEVER TALKS BACK!!!!
This is my sad story. I hope you can all avoid my fate. It seems once you start using "once is never enough." Have a great evening and keep on gathering...

YOU SCARED ME TO DEATH!
That is a wonderful writing skill. I love it!
But, heck, glad we all can laugh about it in the end:)
Well you almost had me going too except we had spoken since then and you must have forgotten to mention CPS took all of your kids when I spoke with you the other day. Besides, it was awfully noisy in the background! Chris
In fact, my cat is meowing right now begging for something and I am ignoring him becausse of Gather. And what does it say that my SO has traveled over 600 miles to see me, and we are sitting on different laptops, feeding off my wireless router and gathering!
Tanja... pet the cat.. he will be okay with that... and smile.. you are so funny..
Chris... Yea, you had the inside information on this one..lol
Have a great day guys.. hopefully I can catch up with everyone soon. I get a day off next friday..(the first in two weeks) the money will be good but i need a rest.. Big hugs out to you all.. goodnight and sweet dreams.
Now looking for safe landing zone...
