The time change. I am not adjusting well.

Yeah, I am upset.

Instead of the wearin' of the green tomorrow it will wearin' of the snow.

It was in the 70's here yesterday, sunny and absolutely lovely. Tomorrow, we are forecast for 6" of snow...right during the morning rush.

Venting about the people venting about the venting thread instead of just avoiding or ignoring it.

Why do we give complaining a better name. Such as Vent. Venting is complaining.

This is a beautiful day the Lord has made. Let us rejoice in it!!!

Someone mentioned yesterday that it would be nice to have a daily vent thread and JJ supplied one. Someone else could supply a daily joy thread if they like. There can be fun in both.

Why would either thread need to be restarted daily?

Try to be thankful for everyday I wake up with a roof over my head, hot coffee in the pot, lights, food and such. Just have gratitude, and give thanks. Works much better than venting and just concentrating on the negative. There is SO MUCH positive in our lives to give thanks for. Smile Having an opinion on subjects is fine, both good and bad, but, when looking at your life, just try to look at the good.

I agree with being thankful for what we have; however, IMO, there's nothing wrong with a venting thread. As someone said on the original JJ vent thread on Saturday, some people don't have anyone to vent to. I don't see the harm.

I also happened to see your original post before you edited it and it started out as "I do not vent"..., yet you have a thread about your unhappiness of the Muppets. I don't understand the difference as that appears to be venting IMO.

I do not think it is against the rules to EDIT MY thoughts and put them more clearly, I decided to say instead that I try not to vent about my life and look at the good. To say I do not vent was incorrect SO I EDITED THAT INCORRECT statement. I am not unhappy about the MUPPETS... they do not make me happy or unhappy ${#emotions_dlg.confused1}$ I just do not find them useful in my life today. I do not want to see them period. As a child perhaps...but not as an adult. You seem to put your thoughts into what I say? Turn things around... Again, I said to give your opinion of subjects good or bad is fine.... I just do not vent about the bad things in my God given life. I try to see the good IN MY LIFE. What other people do or want to dwell on it their business.
