I'm deliriously happy

[Cathyclysmic]

Why wouldn't I? I have a perfect hubby who makes me laugh everyday. I love my job and my coworkers make me laugh and give me wacky nicknames. Everyone is healthy. I finally not in debt up to my eyeballs.

Makes you sick, doesn't it? This is just a friendly reminder to those going through tough times. Seven years ago I tried to kill myself, ended up in the psych ward, declared bankruptcy and was as down and out as you can get. So, just like my Grandma said seven years ago, everything happens for a reason. I didn't believe her then...but maybe she is on to something.

When people post about what they or their families are going through, I hate that all I can do is say is that's too bad and give them a hug. ...So I'm going to be as annoying as my Grandma was 7 years ago...everything happens for a reason.


That's all...

1. I'm very happy that you're happy.

I've had the very great pleasure of meeting both of you. And you are the perfect couple. Seriously. It's a mystery how love works. But when it does, it's a glorious thing to behold.

I didn't know about the heartache you went through. I'm so sorry to hear that. I've been through some tough times, myself. I wondered why "bad things happen to good people". I just didn't understand why me and my family and friends would seemingly go through bad things in their lives that they didn't deserve. But perhaps you and your Grandma are right...things happen for a reason.

Thank you for a lovely post. And here's a hug for you and your guy. :-)

turn themselves around. I am happy for you! I hope people look at your situation as an inspiration.

Deliriously happy on this end, as well - after a long time of, well, NOT being deliriously happy. Not by a long shot.

Enjoy, darlin'!

22. Just thought I'd start the morning picking off DU's scabs

and pouring salt on them...:hi:

[fudge stripe cookays]

16. Wow!

We have even more in common than we thought!

I've been in that same sitch...financial problems, relationship woes, hating a job, trying to find a way out of a bad situation to get life turned around....and even an OD when I tried to kill myself in 86.

I'm glad we both got our crap together and met Beastman and reprehensor!

Let's be annoying together! :hi:

19. You're delirious.

I get delirious whenever you're near
Lose all self-control, baby just can't steer
Wheels get locked in place
Stupid look on my face

It comes 2 makin' a pass, pretty mama
I just can't win a race

'Cuz I get delirious (Delirious)
Delirious (Delirious)
Delirious (Delirious)

I get delirious when U hold my hand (Delirious)
Body gets so weak I can hardly stand
My temperature's runnin' hot
Baby U got 2 stop

'Cuz if U don't I'm gonna explode
And girl I got a lot

I get delirious (Delirious) {Yeah}
Delirious (Delirious)
Delirious (Delirious)

I get delirious whenever you're near (Delirious)
Girl U gotta take control 'cuz I just can't steer
You're just 2 much 2 take
I can't stop I ain't got no brakes

Girl U gotta take me 4 a little ride up and down
In and out and around your lake

I'm delirious (Delirious)
U, U, U get me delirious (Delirious)
Baby, lay me down
Delirious (Delirious)
The room, the room, the room is spinnin' around (Delirious)
Yeah, I'm delirio, yeah, oh I'm, oh I'm (Delirious)
Yeah, delirious, yeah (Delirious)
It's got me in repair, everybody u gotta (Delirious)
Everybody, oh Lord, oh yeah, I'm delirious (Delirious)
Yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah-yeah (Delirious)
(Delirious)
(Delirious)
(Delirious)
(Delirious)
(Delirious)

Hey Alhedges....

I've never had that as an earworm...thanks...no really...thanks:mad:

[Beware the Beast Man]

25. Two month absence, and you manage to earworm me.

Thanks. At least it's Prince...

[asthmaticeog]

20. WOO HOO!

I like it when people I like get what they want.

Big ups to you guys! As terrya said, you're the perfect couple.

[Cathyclysmic]

27. Speaking of getting what you want

When were you going to mention you booked your vacation? I'm glad your going and getting away from the great burning river.

[asthmaticeog]

28. My flight to Portland leaves Saturday morning at 6:00 a.m.

See what kind of bullshit a Jewish guy'll do to save $50? :crazy:

Sadly, it means I have to miss Corinne's birthday festivites, but fuck it, I'm finally going on a god damn vacation!

[Cathyclysmic]

29. Yes, you are, damn it!

I would drag my cheap ass out of bed super early to save $50.00. If fact, when I heard you were flying, I immediately started to worry about you paying for parking at the airport. I heard that's taken care of, so I'm better now.

[Wapsie B]

31. This is exactly the post I needed to see right now.

I'm happy that you've turned things around so well.
It should give encouragement to many here. This is a very beautiful post.


Nominated.

[Cathyclysmic]

32. Thanks!..this is my 1st nominated thread...

I'm going to cry! :cry: Thanks you to everyone who made this happen!:hi:

[Wapsie B]

33. It touches me very deeply today.

Like I was supposed to see it to get me out of my funk. Thank you.

[Cathyclysmic]

35. Thanks, I'm glad

:hi:

[no name no slogan]

34. Your Grandma is absolutely right

I've waded through a massive river of shit over the last 3.5 months myself. The only thing constant in my life has been my job-- otherwise everything else has changed. Things I never imagined would happen to me did happen, and I'm coming out the other side a much stronger, much healthier, and MUCH happier person.

And I also firmly believe everything does happen for a reason. We'll probably never know why, but they still happen. All we have to do is make the best choices we can and live each day as if it was our last day on earth.

[Cathyclysmic]

39. Seven years ago, when she first said that

I knew deep down she was right, but I was still afraid and mad that I had all this work ahead of me getting my crap together. Just thought people in the thick of things needed to be reminded life does not always suck.

[Misunderestimator]

36. Yay! I'm glad for your delirium!!

:bounce:

I am so glad that you've gotten to where you are now! :hug:

[Cathyclysmic]

38. Thanks.....

BTW...your user name always makes me chuckle

[KatyaR]

40. Congratulations, but not everyone is as lucky as you . . . .

The very same things happened to me, but I've never recovered. I lost my house and practically everything I owned (and yes, I mean EVERYTHING), my friends, my job, and what little self-respect I had.

Yes, I now have a job and an apartment, but my life is shit and will always be that way.

So congratulations to you, but realize that not everyone shares your joy.

[JimmyJazz]

41. Lucky? The woman has been to hell and back and you call her

"lucky?" She's fortunate to have met a wonderful man, but that is because she is a wonderful person, not because she is "lucky."

And as for you, I hope that one day things will be better for you. I'm sorry that you feel your future is bleak. Nothing can break someone's spirit quite like the feeling of hopelessness. Please reach out to someone who can help you. Life is meant to be lived. :(
