And the number one good thing that's come out of this mess....

I've learned who my REAL friends are. Like Kelly who fit me into her VERY busy schedule for dinner tonight at 6pm, and is more than happy to listen, empathize and be there for me. Sue who fit me into her schedule tomorrow evening when she's going to be babysitting her grandsons most of the day and no doubt she'll be tired, but she cares enough to make the time for me. Beth, who called me because she was concerned I was going to hurt myself or do something stupid and MADE me make a doctor's appointment about the whole not being able to eat thing. Adrienne who invited me to come hang out with her at her little sister's birthday party on Saturday over in Flushing. My brother who invited me to come with him to the parents house in Flushing this weekend. Jason, who I met online at Yahoo Personals and doesn't even know me, but is willing to listen to me talk about my divorce etc. anyway and is willing to be a friend. And all you guys who have offered kind words, prayers and good thoughts here on LJ. I really am NOT alone, I am actually very blessed.

I'm glad your true friends are there for you now. There's no better way to find out who your real friends are -- the ones who come to your aid when you need them. I learned that the hard way, too!

It's nice to find that you have friends you can count on even in the rough times. People who will be there for you. Even if only "virtually" like you. :)
