Tell Us About Yourself - Carla

[Guest guest]

Thanks Carla and all for telling about yourselves. It

is nice to meet you all and have you in the group.

Today is a hard day for me. I watch the telethon and

it is just too much sometimes. I also have so many

things to do here in this house and I haven't started

any of them.

 

Someone mentioned religion. I think that life

continues but I am not sure about God etc. Hope that

doesn't offend anyone.

 

Take care, Kel
