....is it just me, or does that smilie guy look Wayyyy too happily medicated??

Can you believe I did a forum search on the word 'FLUFF' and found over 45 times it's been mentioned??!!
So, don't you agree it deserves a thread of it's very own??

I just want to take this opportunity to say how very much I appreciate the hearts and souls of everybody who comes here to share fluff.

I don't know where I'd be without all the fluff that's been passed around here.
It takes a truly GENUINE heart to be able to send fluff to one another.

Without the FLUFF, this place would seem cold and empty, uncaring and without soul.

Fluff takes away the fear and uncertainty of those who come here looking for support.

Fluff is inviting and uplifting.

What does "Fluff" mean to you??

I love that you started a thread on this Rae! Hmmmmmm . . . what does "Fluff" mean to me???

On a good day, "Fluff" is the normal, every day, things that we can share. Like me saying that a few days ago my pain level was down, and I was able to go out and help my husband with baby chicks - and with the customers who brought their kids to pick out chicks for the new chicken coop they had just built. It is saying that, for the first time in MONTHS, I was able to bend down, pick up chicks, place them in the hands of a child, and watch their eyes fill with wonderment! I know that I can come here and share those things with a wonderful, caring group of people who will laugh with me in the goodness of those days. That's the good-day Fluff.

And on a bad day, "Fluff" is being able to go into detail - minute, tiny detail - of the pain that I'm in - like today. To share that I'm really struggling with the knowledge that I'm not ever going to be fixed, and that a few days of good, can be followed by a week of bad. That I watch day-in-and-day out as my husband finds purpose in his job, his hobbies, his chickens . . . while I sit inside - alone - feeling like I contribute nothing worthwhile to our livelihood. I know that I can also come here and share those things with a wonderful, caring group of people who will listen with every fiber of their being, understanding not only the words I say, but also the ones I don't. That's the bad-day Fluff.

I just have to say that I feel SO incredibly blessed that I found such an amazing group of people, and I'm glad that we can all "Fluff" as needed - on good days, and on bad!

Fluff On!

Being able to drop in and out of here whenever you feel like it and pick up where you left off....

Being able to ask any question you want and have lots of information come back at you from every walk of life......

Being able to vent your anger at the awful pain and turmoil you go through only to find out you are not alone here, everyone is here to help..........

Being able to say how you feel, good or bad and no one judges you......

Being able to bring laughter to everyone in times of uplifting and troubled times and making them feel that little less sad......

But most importantly it's being able to make many many virtual friends who care, listen, hope, pray and share in our everyday lives and make this site a wonderful place to be a part of.

Thank you Rae for this great thread, only you could think this one up lol. Well done and hope you are keeping well

your words my dear friend
with a few others in the same
place
your life so familiar
not to be touched
for it wouldn't help
keep well
wish you happiness
in your days

I am SOOO Luvin the Fluff!

Rae

There are days we all need a little or a lot of fluff..




Gerry

It's not just you....the smiley guy does look pretty 'happily medicated'

Loved this post and the others.

Not in the mood to discuss Fluff today but I do love the word.....warm, fuzzy, safe.

Be back when I feel better

Debi from Georgia

They probably made that smiley just for us medicated folks.

I have a whole post working up in my head tho I have a yard sale this weekend....for now all I can say is I have been singing this in my head since you started this thread;

"H R PUFF AND STUFF....CAN'T GET A LITTLE CUZ YOU CAN'T GET ENOUGH"



HB

Good Luck with your sale this weekend, HB! Don't overdo. Garage sales can be a lot of work....
and fun if the weather is good and you have others involved.

Rock on Puff n Stuff!

Luv the Fluff!

I happen to like Fluff!

like, when folks here reach out to one another, having never met [or rarely so] other than virtually in these threads....

like, when folks pray, send wondrous thoughts, encourage one [like me of late] when the going has been tough....

like, when we have a Pooh party [yes Pooh, I am still alive, just tired... way tired].....

like, when I can write and share a feeling of being Blessed..... yeah, that is probably fluff as well.....

but then, I am a sentimentalist.....

Fluff.....

Cover me in it.
