Thank you for the update, Leah. I am glad that she has so many people surrounding her with God's love. And yes, her FB post was amazing.

I do think that the Smileys that move are pretty cool when all lined up like that.
Thursday night here, after 11pm, and I'm hoping/praying that everyone's doing well. It rained here today, which was unexpected but nice, and I braved the rain and ventured out to the grocery store this morning. It wasn't busy in the store at all, which was a blessing -- it gave me time to peruse the aisles and consult my list and comparison shop for prices. The cashier was friendly and nice, and the bag boy who helped me to my car liked my car, which always makes me smile. 
Anyway, tomorrow (Friday) ... my wonderful DH should be working another 12-hour day, so I may not see him until after 10pm. It's forecast to be sunny, and I'm hoping it will be. It's also payday, so my focus will be on getting some online banking done (money transferring and bill paying.) I know these tasks seem simple, but sometimes when I'm stressed, they can seem so complicated, ya know?

Harvie, what # deployment does this make?
I always thought that military spouses ought to get medals as well. The constant moves, TDYs, Schools, deployments, the erratic work hours, and just the general stress that goes along with military life is enough to drive a person to drink! (jk about the drinking, but you KWIM)
My heart goes out to you, and I will be praying for you and your family. ((((Harvie))))

Just curious if anyone is familiar with borderline personality disorder?
I am dating a girl with it. She is wonderful, and is in counseling and therapy by godly professionals.
We have talked about it, and I have researched it, so I am familiar.
But, I was wondering if anyone has any personal experience that I can gleam some more wisdom off of?

Hi Saltlight and welcome to the thread.

Are any of you familiar with Recovery International, the mental health self-help group founded by the late Dr. Abraham Low? Although not a Christian, his approach to psychotherapy harmonizes well with biblical Christianity, especially his rejection of Freudian and Jungian psychoanalysis. Even though he goes back to the 1930's and 40's, Dr. Low sounds a lot like Dr. James Dobson and Dr. Laura in his belief that adults have the will to make choices and are not hopelessly bound to their cravings or fears. And UN-like Dr. Laura, he doesn't come across as arrogant, smug or self-righteous. 
I have OCD and attended quite a few Recovery Intl meetings, as well as read his book "Mental Health through Will Training". It's helped out a lot. Anyone with similar or different experiences?
I look forward to your responses.
Hi Richard and welcome to the thread.
I have never heard of Recovery International. Sorry.

Hi rawr.ben. I don't know anything about it other than what I've read in this thread.
Hi Melissa. Housework is yucky unless it's all done. 
I talked to Maggie a few hours ago. She sounds really good. She had much of her family over and I could hear them singing It is Well. They sing very well! Maggie says to say hi to everyone.
I would've posted earlier, but my computer got hijacked by a bunch of teenagers.
