Thanks for posting this Marda. It's good to see who is at least lurking. I tried to get this to post Sat. night/Sunday morning but it wouldn't go through so I copied and kept it. Smiles. I'm around. I did get hooked in September with fake farming and only recently have I begun to slack off on that.. finally. I still love this place and am glad I came back. It's always the people here that draw me whether they post or not. I'm very glad to see so many post to this thread. Lately I've only been reading here every week or so and not posting, but the draw is still here and I'll be here more often again. Doing the quotes is a good way to stay close. Smiles. Marda, if you haven't found anyone to do your week yet, I'll do it. It makes me very sad to hear of Gandle going through this. Leone and Gandle are indeed Party treasures. Lots of healing energy heading your way. I too have noticed some tendencies to jump on people when such differences or dislike of a topic would previously have just started a debate, a brief comment or a scroll by....smiles. The edge of nastiness that might or might not only be perceived still stings. What really hurts is when great people don't post because of it. I'll hope for better behavior in the future. And by better behavior I don't mean agree to everything.. I mean take things in the way they are given. Sharing a view, telling a tale, expressing an opinion is what we are here for and should be supported and encouraged not disparaged or nit picked. Hauling the good old soapbox away. This thing has gotten realllly heavy.

Yikes, I missed this yesterday but want to add my best wishes to the pile of good vibes being sent your way, Gloria.

So many April Fool's birthdays! I hope all of you are having a merry time. Happy Birthday.

Happy Birthday Gloria! Happy Birthday Sadie! I haven't seen you here in forever girl, stop in and tell us whats going on in your life that you're so busy! Hope you gals have a great day!
