OK, Sisters! Let’s hear it! Who wants to participate? IT’S TIME FOR ROLL CALL.
Here’s what you do:
*Enter ONE COMMENT PER PERSON so that we can tell from the number of comments exactly how many are participating. If you’re overseeing a small group through our blog discussion, please ask each participant to sign up separately. It will only take a few moments and will make the list so much more fun and far easier to read. If you invited a friend to participate but she doesn’t know how to post a comment yet, sign up for her then take her through AJ’s tutorial (see previous post) so she can learn to do it on her own from this point forward. Remember that we moderate all comments here so please don’t sign up twice unless you still don’t see yours posted the next day.
*In your comment, give your…
First Name
City, State (or Nation! We have so many Canadian Siestas, you know!)
Age decade (20’s, 30’s, 40’s, etc.)
Single or Married
If this happens to be the first time you’ve ever participated in this community, let us know! You are so welcome here. You are also under no pressure. This is strictly to enrich your sweet life, not to add one more interminable thing to your schedule. In the weeks to come, add a comment when you want. Otherwise, just enjoy perusing the insights and discussions of others as often as you like.
Today is roll call for our book discussion then this coming Thursday, February 11th, I’ll give your first reading assignment and post your first week’s questions. You’ll have all week to post your answers through a comment so don’t panic if you ordered a book and it hasn’t come yet. It won’t be hard to catch up. Again, if you don’t feel like you have anything to add that week, no big deal! The more we limit our answers to the questions that particularly resonate with us, the richer our commentary will be.
You guys are such a blast. I can’t wait to take this journey with you. You were such a huge inspiration that it’s fitting. To those of you who are joining us for the first time in order to participate in a “book club” experience, we are thrilled you are here. Jump in!
I’m crazy about you. Let’s dump a bad friend, Girls.

I hope I'm not too late in the Roll Call to join the Discussion Group. I've already received my autographed book, and presently reading Cha. 3. Soooooooooo good and know that reading it is going to be life changing for me. I just feel it!

The day before i started this study I had a case of very hurt feelings, I lost my 16 year old daughter almost 11 years ago and though I usually do pretty well, it doesn't take much to make me feel unloved, rejected, etc. I was supposed to watch my grandchildren for the day and had all my stuff packed up for fun when my son called and told me that his wife's mother was going to watch them instead. She was leaving for the weekend and wanted to spend some time with them. I felt angry, hurt………even though I get to spend more time with them than the other grandmother. It wasn't really a big deal except that I immeidately felt unloved, mistreated, rejected…….you get the idea. i blame my sensitivity on my loss, but maybe I would have been like this anyway. I actually felt that there may be hope for me, since, apparently, I am not alone.
The description: the insecure person also harbors unrealistic expectations about love and relationships……resonated with me……….I'm not unaware of my tendancy to set myself up in this way….I just feel helpless to stop the cycle
