CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

IJWTA - More coffee...or no?
I'm not a coffee drinker, but I think I should become one (and learn to deal with the disgusting taste). My boss told me yesterday that I shouldn't start drinking coffee, though, because it's addictive.

ohhh I love the taste..most days it's the taste and the warmth that make me crave it so much...but days like today, when I haven't slept much, I would love the extra caffeine....and yes, it's addictive
I don't recommend starting up on it...I really need to quit....it's sick that I rely on caffeine for energy on days like these...
Prayers would be goooooood if y'all think about it ever

Add milk and sugar. That might make it more to your liking. Another thing would be to try flavored coffee like hazelnut or French Vanilla. In my opinion that ruins the taste but that might be just what you are looking for.

I've added milk and sugar before and it didn't help. That flavored coffee stuff might work, though. It's just that some nights I don't sleep well and days like today I feel like coffee would be just the thing to make me feel less zombielike.

You should also try flavored creamer. Coffee mate has a plethora of different flavors. Yummy yummy!
IJWTS I need to stop eating so much. It's like I go on vacation and all bets are off, calories don't matter, and it's all up for grabs. Unfortunately, the marks on my stomach from my jeans are proving me wrong. I should buy fancy pajama jeans!

coffee is addictive, and it can mess with your sleep cycle. Tea is a healthier choice, you don't get the withdrawal when you stop drinking it, and it keeps your energy levels up for longer periods of time.
of course this is all stated by an open and proud coffee drinker

zombie days after sleepless nights are no fun. praying my dear
One thing that also helps me during those days too is small frequent meals. with lots of fruit and greens, every time i feel like i'm fading away and I eat something I get a couple of hours of energy back.
or maybe i'm just built weird.

I have a long day..no I shouldn't say that. It's not like I'm working all day today. But the kiddos have been SO hyper this week (I guess that happens at the beginning of the school year) and haven't been listening well...and then I have three hours of training afterward...I should really be alert...but because I'm like, not too awake, it's going to seem like such a long day ...oy!
But anyway..thank you for being sweet!

I thought about leaving and when/if I do, I don't want people to leave me messages that I won't read. Now I'm pretty sure that I'll be here for at least a little while longer.
ETA that I mainly reopened the wall because while I'm still here, it seems obnoxious to make people search out my posts to rep me in response to a rep I sent them. I've been repping a bit lately and people have been wanting to respond.
