Mr. Banana's loss..... Glad it hasn't thrown you off track :-) 

Yeah Mr.banana has lost out....What kind of book are you finishing up?? Inquiring minds want to know..Have a great day...:O) 

Great attitude! Too many other areas of your life to focus on right now. I must agree w/ Skinny...his loss!!! ;) Much Love. 

Thank you Pam!! Me too!! 

Thanks Bren!! I am writing a book about how abuse I suffered as a child has effected my life and how I have tried to overcome it....it is really hard going as it means visiting very dark times in my life and being honest and open about it.....but for me it is a huge part of my healing process and I hope it will be helpful to people who have suffered similar issues..... 

Thanks Jsfantome - all the support I get from FS and non-FS friends is such a godsend to me and I am grateful everyday for each and every one of them :) 

So bananas are no longer your favorite fruit? And I didn't even know you were writing a book! 

WEll I hope you get the book finished and I for one would love to read it..I think we all have had some dark times in our lives...and it helps to revisit even though we would like to shove it under a rug and stomp on it..Hugs..:O) 

Never mind Tracy still early days, i am sure you will meet another banana man!!! Book sounds good, hope you have a good day :)  

lol Buffy.....no I can't say bananas hold the same charm that they did last week!! I started writing it last year October and it has been really hard trying to be in the right frame of mind with all the other stuff that was going on in my life....so now I have no excuses and I'm wasting my time on bananas!!! So back to the important stuff for me... 

Don't worry Bren I will finish the book...I'm never a quitter (just a loser!!) - I would love you to read it too. Yeah it is incredible the stories people tell you when you open up about your own, but for whatever reasons people do prefer to shove them under a rug...I guess the unnecessary shame that carries its way with these issues is the biggest blame... 

Thanks Jo!! I hope you have a good day too!! 

Aw bananas! Better to find out now what he is all about before you've invested a lot of time with him. I'm with Bren, I'd love to read your book. 

I thought that too DM, at least he has been honest with me and didn't just leave me hanging. I'm hoping to be finished by the end of this year or even hopeful for sooner..... 

I lived such a protected life. It wasn't until I was an adult that I realized most people didn't have the amazing childhood I had. My second husband and his siblings lived though unbelievable abuse and still managed to become decent, loving human beings, which just astounds me. My petty childhood hurts seem so trivial, but they have still had big impressions on my adult life. I can't believe that most of the people with real pain in their past come through so strong. Writing can be so cathartic. I'm glad you are able to do it. You are wrapped in my thoughts.
