I would have tried something else, I was so disheartened with the meetings in my area. But I thought I would give it one more shot. Glad I did and I am glad I am not alone. Welcome back Catherine.

Imagine my surprise when I saw the same leader at this meeting! One of us has changed because she didn't make me crazy. Hugs, Catherine

[quoted text clipped - 32 lines] > >> >> >> Hugs, > >> >> >> Catherine Stormmee - 06 Oct 2006 17:51 GMT this is very true, the leader I like best adjust her style to the group, the Wednesday night meeting is best described as rowdy, and tending toward more "adult" topics/comments, the Saturday morning and Wednesday noon meetings are more"housewifely" and she treats them completely differently, but does get the same points across, Lee

Nightmare for a leader is groups that won't say a word... Total freak out.. Will~

That sounds interesteing, how do those work?
Stormmee - 06 Oct 2006 20:28 GMT the time is open for about 2 hours, you go in get WI and get the materials if any, and five to ten minutes one on one, you wait your turn, but when they do this they have 3 people doing WI and 2 people to give the info, nice if you are in a hurry, need a change or want to talk privately about an issue with no guilt, unfortunately they quit it at our center, Lee

That sounds interesteing, how do those work? Eddie-Type2 - 08 Oct 2006 14:09 GMT Our express meetings are different from what Lee describes.
A normal meeting is approx. 45 minutes.
An express meeting is held for only 30 minutes so that people can get in and out quickly, especially for those coming during their lunch time.

[quoted text clipped - 32 lines] >>> >> >> Hugs, >>> >> >> Catherine Catherine White - 06 Oct 2006 19:56 GMT I did find it funny, the one leader I was trying to avoid and there she was! It was a good meeting and I am very happy that I stayed for the first and returned for the second. If she makes me crazy again, I know I can go to another center. Admitting that I needed the meeting was a giant first step for me. Hugs, Catherine

I am powerless over the leaders and my life is unmanageable.
