Elvis - A Lighted Candle

[juliepresleyfan]

hello girls this is me meeting my good pal marilyn for first time


she is allso an elvis fan and we had a great day on bank holiday 5th may

[Wanda June Hill]

Nice shirt! Great you have a pal that likes him too! That gives you some one to have fun with and enjoy the music etc: together! Always good to have a fellow conspirator to do things with! You two look like friends to me. You're looking good kid, your hair looks shiny and nice so you must be feeling better- our hair tells how our health is - darn tattle tale stuff!
And the nails too, mine are spliting off and won't grow at all these days.
Can't figure out what happened...they started doing that when I had the eye medication that was steroid stuff...and never stopped even though I haven't had that in quite a while now. Crazy nails!
Best of luck with your new friendship JulieSharonRose! Can't have a better "glue" than Elvis! wjh

[Skylar Star]

How fun!!! You guys must have had alot to talk about Btw, I've always wanted to visit England.

[Blue Moon]

[MaryInTheMorning]

Count me in as being really happy for you too that you have a friend that likes Elvis too, and someone that you can enjoy his wonderful music with and have fun with !! I wholeheartedly agree with oue dear Wanda-you both do like friends and you honestly can't have a better "glue" than our dear Elvis!!

Hi Julie Lovely Picture of you Elvis Gals, I was going to suggest getting your Friend to join us here at ELC. I also Never what to Come UNGLUED! like the Song says I'M STUCK ON YOU ELVIS! Love the Shirt to Julie, I have always wanted an Elvis Shirt. FairyTale!

[Rainbow Light]

if elvis is glue them god may i never come unstuck tee hee
luv julie

Thanks for sharing the photo above of you and Marilyn, at least you can still keep contact through cell phone/phone, that's something and I guess she can't write if she has eye problems, a shame but at least you can keep in touch somehow, huh?

[juliepresleyfan]

well its moved on a jot since then , yes marilyn needs to rest her eyes and ive come to accept 1 letter a month , but then it went to no letters .
thats ok as i had her mobile number and things were not too bad.

but shes been markedly different since may 5th on our meeting , having little mean digs at me by text inbetween, well yesterday i found out why .
she told me , it was because when i met her when she visited on may 5th, that i did not show her quite enough excitement,
yep you read it right .

and apparently gals its all my fault and i only have myself to blame, well im sick of the little jibes and i feel hurt now i know thats the only reason i supposedly desrved em.

its moved on and yesterday ive been unceremoniously dumped , so there you go ladies.
im going to miss her terribley , i wanted if we had to end it to be in peace and with good feeling but thats not what she wants .
i think the poor lady has bad emotional problems , she dont trust parents and wanted me and christine to leave home, but i told her nicely we were happy at home as are our parents to have us stay, she was not happy but said no more.
so its an end to what was a real close friendship, please could you send my pal marilyn hilton from hitchin hertfordshire some healing thoughts in hope she will be ok , and feel better soon.

she is worried about her eyes and scared understandibly so, but i think its just a case of resting them , and not panicking .
maybe somewhere in future she will realise just how daft the decision was and contact again maybe.

she apparently is going to throw out everything i gave her of Elvis , which i think might be a little over the top, and has ordered me to throw her things she gave me recently in the visit.
course im not , what good would that do, so im really hoping she will settle down maybe soon and she has got other pals thank god all just texting .

id gotten used to her funny little ways , was even endearing , till the angry avenger took over in may 6th .
till now
i will send her healing thoughts and pray for her as she said no contact ever again.
well thats my tale of woe
luv julie

Dear Julie:

I am so sorry what has happened between you and your "friend". Sometimes there are circumstances we do not know and other times it is just that persons "problem". It sounds like she is very controlling and one of the things you said is she wanted you to move out? This is not a statement that she should have made to you and that you should also throw out everything she gave you. Julie, for right now I think you are better off without your friend. Perhaps down the line things will change.

Di

[MaryInTheMorning]

Oh sweet Julie Sharon-Rose I too am so very sorry about what has happened between you and your "friend." You have such a loving heart and you surely didn't deserve the way she treated you my dear friend. I can relate to how you are feeling because I am going through a similar situation with my friend and her daughter(the ones that I've previously mentioned that my family and I went to visit a few weeks ago.) In some ways I was closer to her daughter that even she was, and then very shortly after we came home everything just changed and no one has told me why!! Now her daughter isn't talking to me at all and my friend is being very evasive and distant with me. You called it right dear Julie when you said that you were going to pray for your "friend" and I am following your good example and doing the same thing in my case and maybe there will be happier times ahead for both of us!! You will be in my prayers as well dear angel!!

[Rainbow Light]

Dear Julie Sharon Rose and Mari, I am so very sorry to hear all that has happened between you and Marilyn and also, Mari with your friend and her daughter and I will keep you both within my thoughts and prayers!

You are both very special loving hearts and spirits and send lots of Love Bubbles to two Earth angels in human form!

[juliepresleyfan]

thanks ladies , it comforts me, yes i agree through the sadness i can see i am bettter of without marilyn.
thanks mary in the morning , thats terrible your going through same thing.

well ladies i believe marilyn has emotional mental issues , and i dont mean that unkindly, yes the last text said throw away ewverything she (marilyn) gave me as aparently i wont want anything remindin g me of her
no way im not.
i found out the three months of digging at me was all because i , apaarently not acted excited enough to see her , but remember ladies if you will she told me constantly that she has epilepsy and cant get over excited as she has fits, so told me to be carefull .

i really dont know what she expected maybe , brass band , red arrows fly bye, i did spell out welcome marilyn on our fridge in fridge magnets lol
, daft apeth me lol, but she never noticed it humph
oh well .
i hugged her and said welcome as did my mum .

she was shgowing signs of being really odd lately , she hates parents a lot says she can see through them and such a shame others cant
she says parents only keep you at home for their own selfish reasons.

i told her i was happy at home as are our parents so why change it, we are all we have in this world so im not going to split that up, just because marilyn is jealous of me and christine, marilyn informed me she dumped her real sister just because she was happy living with her lodger, she said she feels nothing for her sister anymore, she says her sis is ignoring the family, well as far as i can see her sister is happy and marilyn wants her alone so she can manipulate her, yes i agree marilyn is a controll freak, ive only just fell in about that stupid me huh

i do wish her happiness , i feel sorry for poor gary her husband, she was trying to impress her odd shall i say thoughts on me .
she has spent the last 3 months having a nasty dig at me constantly , all because i wasnt excited enough on her visit, she said it was all my fault and that id brought it on my self.

appas crappus (i will survive ) lol, so ive been dumped gals , i did text back and say what about the christmas gift i was sending her, as she gave me a crimbo gift on her visit in may.
i said are you sure you not being hasty, then she text back yes i am julie ok i give you another chance, send the christmas gift .

well i almost shot up like a rocket , flaming cheek, she give me another chance , did not even say sorry for 3 months of nasty digs and hell she put me through, but still wanted the gift tho didnt she .

well i thought it was me giving her chance to keep us together, she thought everything was about her, could not see she hurt me by her comments .
so itext back saying no thanks im still upset about hurtfull remarks she made for three solid months.
goodbye i said have a nice life, it hurts now as i had trusted this individual and let my defences down for her .
ive had a cry way back when she gradually dumped me saying she no write n o more, think thats her plan all along actually.

my sensibilities are hurt badly , my trust damaged but not broken, i will survive , and like my poem what dont kill me makes me stronger .
i have you ladies and my wonderfull friend and penpal sue too, so im never alone in this world.
your all my good friends thankyou all god bless

i even said to her we can be honorary sisters , and she wanted to call my mum her mum, so me and mum said ok no harm i guess, if it makes her happy, but she even made issues out of that, well im glad that twisted sister figuritively speaking is out of my life now, she has really stressed me out lately, and i tried to say nothing so as not to upset her and that she is epileptic too, so i made allowances , but the last straw has broke the camels back .

she is done and over with me, i wanted to leave it in peace but she wanted hatred , well thats not me gals, hatred surves no, one anygood .

im guessing she will miss the little elvis goodies i used to share with her, i helped her with her collecting, mostly no cost too, i love giving spares away to good pals if i can afford to post, it helps elvis too.
and makes us closer i think.
she said she will throw everything i gave her , such a shame silly woman, i see no point in doing that do you agree ladies .
i gave her a beautifull elvis quilt last crimbo, was cheaper in a sale but still cost me over £17.00 to buy,
oh well as you say im better off without her much calmer too lol

god knows i tried to make allowances for her slightly shall i say kindly oddball ways i really did, but was beginning to hurt me emotionally.
she cares nowt for human feelings , wheras i do deeply.
thanks for your kind words ladies ive so needed you all in my life allways.

take heart mary in the morning , these people do to us only what we let em do, so gather yourself up and move on as i am having to do, you dont deserve to be treated like that with disrespect, dont let these unkind fools make you doubt yourself anymore, we are all special in gods eyes, and you and all of you are special in my eyes too.
luv you all julie
